Since accepting the job in 2007, Voss has aggressively recruited women who not only compete at a high level on the field, but who also have a passion for bringing glory to God. Voss’s trademarked soccer style of “possession-attacking futbol” has resulted in a complete revamp of Grace's women's soccer team. The Lancers have been a consistent national power in the NAIA and NCCAA. The team has qualified for NAIA Nationals seven times since 2015, and the team has advanced to 17 national tournaments under Voss's leadership. He has led Grace to consistent national prominence. They enjoyed a nearly five-year stretch of being ranked in the NAIA Top 25 Coaches' Poll, a streak of 1,793 consecutive days. The Lancers under Voss enjoyed one of their best seasons ever in 2025. Grace set program records for goals (83), assists (82) and points (248) while winning the program's first Crossroads League Tournament championship. Grace won a host bid for the opening NAIA tournament rounds and advanced to the NAIA's Sweet Sixteen. They outscored their opponents 83-9 on the season, yielding just 0.39 goals per game on average. Voss was named the 2021 NCCAA National Coach of the Year after guiding Grace to the 2021 NCCAA national championship -- the first national title in team history. They repeated as NCCAA national champions in 2022 after a dominating run through the tournament field in Florida. After a stellar 2020-21 season, Grace finished the year ranked No. 14 in the NAIA Top 25 Coaches' Poll. During the fall, Grace made a run to the championship games of the Crossroads League Tournament and NCCAA National Championships over the span of 14 days. Grace took down Spring Arbor on the road in the semifinals despite playing without the team's leading goalscorer. Grace had five players earn All-American recognition at the conclusion of the season. The 2018 season was a memorable one in Grace's history. The Lancers (20-4-1) won 20 games for the first time and also claimed their first Crossroads League championship. Grace hosted the Opening Round of NAIA Nationals for the second time in program history at 1st Source Bank Field. The team ended the season ranked No. 16 in the NAIA Coaches' Poll. The 2019 campaign saw Grace advance to the NAIA tournament again. The Lancers won two matches in the national tournament and finished the year ranked No. 14 in the final NAIA poll.  Grace won its first NAIA tournament game (2-1) over Park and ended the 2015 season with a 15-3-3 record. During the 2015 season, Grace went undefeated in nonconference play, defeating the No. 2, No. 11 and No. 16-ranked teams in the process. From 2009-14, the Lancers made five trips to the NCCAA National Championships in Kissimmee, Fla. The 2014 season saw Grace reach the NCCAA national championship match. The Lancers also earned their first NAIA Top 25 ranking in 2014 and ended the year at No. 18. Voss holds the top eight single-season marks in Grace’s program history, leading the Lancers to a 14-6-3 record in 2009, 14-7-3 record in 2011, 17-5-3 record in 2012, 13-7-2 record in 2013, 17-5-3 record in 2014, 15-3-3 mark in 2015, 20-4-1 in 2018 and 16-5-2 in 2019. Voss’s successful recruiting has been on display as the team earned both the Crossroads League Offensive Player of the Year and Midfielder of the Year awards from 2013-15. In 2019, freshman JJ Aalbue was named the NCCAA National Player of the Year, Crossroads League Offensive Player of the Year and Newcomer of the Year. In 2012 a pair of Lancer freshmen (Mallory Rondeau, Carianne Sobey) earned First Team NCCAA All-American honors. Rondeau was named the NCCAA National Player of the Year in 2014, Abby Schue was named NAIA First Team All-American, and Meredith Hollar was given the prestigious NCCAA Game Plan 4 Life award. Overall, he has coached 71 All-Americans. Additionally, the Lancers under Voss have consistently been graded as one of the smartest teams in the nation. Over the past five years, Grace’s team GPA has never been lower than 3.60. The Lancers’ team GPA ranked first across all NAIA women’s soccer programs in 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2015 and was second in the NAIA in 2010 and 2014. Individually, the Lancers have produced 91 NAIA Scholar-Athletes and nine CoSIDA Capital One Academic All-Americans since 2011.  Voss’s desire to disciple the women of Grace’s soccer team is clearly seen in his organizing missions trips for the Lancers. Voss has led his soccer teams on numerous trips, including Peru (2008), Cayman Islands (2012), Nicaragua (2014, 2015, 2017, 2024, 2026) and Costa Rica (2019). In March 2012, Voss was named an assistant coach for the Women’s National Team of Haiti. His three-year commitment included identification, training and development of Haiti’s Women’s National Team, U-20, U-17 and U-14 WNT. Voss continued in his role as Grace’s full-time head coach in addition to assisting Haiti’s WNT. Prior to coming to Grace, Voss and his family worked as missionaries to the southern jungle of Belize, Central America. He coached the Toledo United Professional Futbol Club, fighting for a CONCACAF Champions Cup bid. Voss also worked at the Calvary Chapel Christian Schools in Murrieta, Calif.; from 1996-2005 he was the athletic director, the director of soccer and the head girls’ soccer coach. Voss started the soccer program and compiled a record of 102-51-17. Voss, who has earned six Coach of the Year honors, attended Santa Clara (Calif.) University from 1991-93 and was a member of the soccer team that finished 20-1-2 and was NCAA Div. I National Finalist in 1991. He would complete his undergraduate work at Point Loma Nazarene (Calif.) University in 1996 studying religion with an emphasis in Biblical studies and Greek. He is licensed with a USSF “C” and an NSCAA “Advanced National Diploma.” He is also a “Certified Athletic Administrator” from the National Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association.

David Andersen is poised for his eighth year joining the Lancers’ staff in 2026. Andersen has a wealth of head coach experience, both at the high school and collegiate levels. He has experienced tremendous success on the sidelines at Grace. The team reached the NAIA National Championships in each of his first four seasons, helping the team win four NAIA tournament games. After each of his first two years, Grace finished the year ranked No. 14 in the NAIA, and Grace ended the 2021 season ranked No. 24. The Lancers enjoyed one of their best seasons ever in 2025. Grace set program records for goals (83), assists (82) and points (248) while winning the program's first Crossroads League Tournament championship. Grace won a host bid for the opening NAIA tournament rounds and advanced to the NAIA's Sweet Sixteen. They outscored their opponents 83-9 on the season, yielding just 0.39 goals per game on average. The 2021 season saw the Lancers claim the NCCAA national championship in Kissimmee, Fla., marking the first national title in team history. Grace then repeated as NCCAA national champions in 2022 with a dominating run through the field in Florida.

Grace won two games in the NAIA tournament and finished the season ranked No. 14 in the final NAIA poll. Andersen is a 2012 graduate of Grace, playing soccer collegiately for the Lancers. After graduation, he went back to his high school Oakland Christian (Mich.) where he saw great success as the head coach of the boys and girls’ soccer programs. During his tenure from 2012-18, he racked up 111 wins. His teams won three conference championships as well as three district titles. Andersen was named Coach of the Year three times at Oakland Christian. His players combined to win 21 All-State awards to go along with numerous All-Conference and All-District honors. Six players went on to play soccer at the collegiate level. In 2017 he took the head coaching position for Rochester College (Mich.).
