KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. - Oregon Tech Athletics Director, Michael Schell, announced today that Grant Alexander of Clackamas, Ore. has recently signed a letter of intent and will join the men’s soccer program in 2012.
Entering Oregon Tech this coming fall as a freshman, Alexander, a 5-9 midfielder, captained the Clackamas High School squad in 2011, eventually leading the Cavalieres to a Final 8 appearance in the 6A OSAA State Playoffs. The three year varsity players best finish with the Cavs was a 3rd place showing in 2009. Alexander was voted team MVP this past season, along with earning Three Rivers League first-team all-conference honors after recording seven assists and four goals in 2011.
Grant is the son of Craig, a former Klamath Union High School standout soccer performer, and Natalie Alexander and will major in health sciences at Oregon Tech beginning this fall.
KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. – Oregon Tech Athletics Director, Michael Schell, announced last week that Bryan Mueller has been relieved of his duties as head men’s and women’s soccer coach at the University.
Mueller finished 65-59-6 overall in seven seasons with the Tech women, with a 5-9-1 mark this past year, including 3-6-0 in Cascade Conference play in 2011. After Oregon Tech added the men’s soccer program in 2008, Mueller guided those teams to a 22-43-6 record in four seasons, finishing the 2011 campaign at 5-11-1 overall and 3-9-1 in conference play.
"After a thorough evaluation of our soccer programs, I have concluded that new leadership is necessary to move both programs forward,” said Schell. “The search for a successor will begin immediately. I would like to have both positions filled by June.”
Schell has named assistant coach Mike Hedlund as interim head coach for both programs.
