Oscar Herrera (Augsburg '24), one of the best goalkeepers in Augsburg men's soccer history, joined the Auggie coaching staff in 2024. After completing his playing career for the Auggies, Herrera began his professional career, playing for the Minnesota United FC 2 squad in the MLS NEXT Pro league, the third tier of the United States Soccer Federation's professional soccer structure. In July, he suited up for the main Minnesota United FC club as a reserve goalkeeper for an MLS game. A four-year starter in goal at Augsburg, Herrera played in 54 games in his Auggie career, going 27-15-2 with a 1.19 goals against-average, 182 saves (.740 save percentage) and 16 shutouts. His 27 career wins are fourth-most in school history, with his GAA tied for sixth-best and 16 shutouts tied for fourth-most.   Herrera earned All-Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference and United Soccer Coaches All-Region first-team honors in 2021, when he went 12-6-1 (tying Augsburg's single-season school record for wins) with five shutouts and a 1.11 GAA, leading the Auggies to an MIAC postseason playoff berth. He went 7-3-5 with six shutouts and a 1.00 GAA in 2022, and 7-3-6 with four shutouts and a 1.25 GAA for the Auggies' 2023 MIAC playoff squad.   Herrera has played with local club Minneapolis City FC (which plays its home games at Augsburg's Edor Nelson Field) and has trained with Forward Madison (Wis.) since ending his collegiate career.

Since arriving at Augsburg in 2004, head coach Greg Holker (Gustavus '00) has revitalized the Auggies, turning the men's soccer team into an annual playoff contender. He is now the winningest coach in school history, having guided the Auggies to four NCAA Division III national tournament appearances, including the "Elite 8" in 2025 and "Sweet 16" in 2008, and the MIAC playoff championship in 2010, among its eight MIAC playoff appearances.   Augsburg Coaching Highlights: Holker inherited a program that won just seven league games in the eight seasons prior to his arrival and quickly turned things around, leading the Auggies to third-place MIAC finish and first-ever postseason berth in his third season at the helm.   Holker led Augsburg to 16 victories in 2010, which marked the most in program history as he earned MIAC Coach of the Year honors for the second time. That record was eclipsed in 2025 with an 18-win season. With Holker at the helm, the Auggies are an impressive 185-15-17 when scoring the first goal.   At Augsburg, Holker has coached 82 All-MIAC, 36 All-Region and 27 Scholar All-Region athletes, including seven All-Americans, three MIAC Players of the Year and seven Scholar All-Americans. Holker has provided life-changing experiences to his Auggies, leading them on regular international trips to Argentina (2007), Spain (2010), Italy (2015), Germany (2018) and Costa Rica (2023). Professional Credentials:  Holker holds the United States Soccer Federation ‘A’ License, the United Soccer Coaches Premier Diploma, the USSF National Youth License, the USSF Grassroots Instructor License and serves as a Coaching Education Instructor for US Soccer.   Holker prides himself on his ability to teach, but spends more time making sure his players are learning. Over 135 of Holker’s Auggies have gone on to coaching careers in scholastic or youth soccer environments after spending time in the program.    Holker says, "My goal is to offer the best NCAA soccer experience possible. I wish to foster an environment that encourages personal growth through the ability to think critically and solve problems independently. I expect the athletes to conduct themselves in a manner that positively reflects the values and demonstrates the hospitable culture of our program. Our teams will carry themselves with great class and integrity, mindful that they represent not just themselves, but an esteemed program and an institution committed to excellence."   "By constantly seeking new experiences, I hope to help students attain their full potential as persons, to develop in them a capacity and passion for lifelong learning, and to prepare them for fulfilling lives of leadership and service both on and off the soccer field.”    Previous Coaching Experience: Prior to his arrival at Augsburg, Holker served as the head coach at the Academy of Holy Angels High School in 2003, where he was named United Soccer Coaches Minnesota Division II Coach of the Year after leading the Stars to a conference championship. Holker spent one season as an assistant coach at Bloomington Jefferson in 2002 after spending two seasons as an assistant coach at his alma mater, Gustavus Adolphus College. Other Duties/Campus Involvement at Augsburg: Holker serves as the athletic facilities assistant manager. Personal/Family Notes: Holker resides in Lakeville, Minn., with his wife Connie and their four children, Braden, Lydia, Landon, and Logan. YEAR-BY-YEAR RECORDS Year Overall Record Overall Pct.
