Ben Boehner

Boehner enters his second season on the sidelines for FGCU. During his first season with the Green and Blue, the squad put together a record-breaking season, winning a program best 17 games, a fifth-consecutive Atlantic Sun Regular Season Championship, a third A-Sun Tournament title and hosted the first NCAA Tournament match in the history of FGCU Athletics which produced a record-shattering attendance of 2,014 fans. After dropping a 2-0 result to No. 16 South Carolina on Sept. 14 on a neutral field, the Eagles won a program record 13-consecutive matches, outscoring their opponents 36-6 with seven shutouts, including a 15-2 advantage against A-Sun competition during the regular season. The Eagles enter the 2015 campaign with a record of 7-0-1 all-time in the A-Sun Tournament and a mark of 3-0-1 in the Championship match. The season also saw a national top-25 ranking and eight A-Sun award winners, including Player of the Year in Tabby Tindell, Defensive Player of the Year in Emma Blackwell and six First-Team award winners.

Prior to his arrival at FGCU, Boehner worked two seasons at the University of Missouri where he served as the team's director of performance analysis in his first season and helped with the transition to the Southeastern Conference and helped guide the program to the NCAA Tournament. In his second season he served as a volunteer assistant coach and was also involved in all aspects of the program.

Before going to Mizzou, Boehner spent two years at Missouri Valley College in Marshall, Mo., where he helped the Vikings regain past successes. During his two seasons, Missouri Valley posted back-to-back winning seasons and an overall record of 18-13-6 in the powerful Heart of America Athletic Conference (HAAC).

Boehner played collegiate soccer at Columbia College under John Klein from 2001-05. As a four-year started for the Cougars, Boehner helped push the program to new heights. The team posted a mark of 56-25-2 and an American Midwest Conference record of 23-3-1 during his playing days to establish the Cougars as one of the NAIA's top men's programs. During the summers, Boehner would also train with the Kansas City Brass of the Premier Development League in Kansas City.

A native of Parkville, Mo., Boehner earned a degree in marketing from Columbia College in 2006.
