Cameron Pilger will enter his first year as the head coach of the Mitchell College men's soccer program in the fall of 2022. Pilger, who will make his collegiate head coaching debut with the Mariners, joins Mitchell following a four-year stint at the University of Saint Joseph.  He helped lead the USJ program to a 32-16-4 record during his tenure in West Hartford, Conn.  "We are so excited to announce Cameron Pilger as our head men's soccer coach," said Finlayson. "Cam brings a great energy to our department along with a ton of player development experience and recruiting, and he was an integral part of building the USJ program.  His overall vision for the student-athlete experience aligns perfectly with what Mitchell College is all about." During his time at USJ, Coach Pilger helped lead the team to one quarterfinal and two semifinal appearances in the Great Northeast Athletic Conference Tournament. "It is an honor to join the Mitchell College family. I look forward to helping grow what is already a great program," said Pilger. "My staff and I will look to develop a winning culture by developing excellent student-athletes and even better human beings." Pilger had spent time as an Assistant Coach at Quinnipiac University coaching the goalkeepers and has served as a director of the Star Goalkeeper Academy since 2020.  A native of Rochester, New York, Pilger graduated from the University of Hartford with a degree in philosophy.
