Brevard College

Head Women's Soccer Coach Juan Mascaro concluded his ninth season at the helm of Brevard College women's soccer in 2024 with the most record-breaking campaign that the program has enjoyed to-date in the NCAA era of competition. The 2024 Brevard women's soccer team broke the single-season NCAA-era win record by claiming 15 overall victories. The Tornados claimed the program's first-ever USA South Conference Regular Season Championship - the first conference regular-season title in the NCAA-era for any sport at BC - and finished the season with an unbeaten 15-0-3 record, the first time BC women's soccer has completed an undefeated campaign since the school was a junior college in 1998. Mascaro was selected as the USA South Conference Women's Soccer Coach of the Year for BC's efforts in 2024. Mascaro coached the conference's Rookie of the Year (Kinlee Mozley) and Goalkeeper of the Year (Abby Nunez) alongside a record seven All-Conference performers 

The Tornados earned the program's first NCAA-era postseason win in the semifinals of the 2023 USA South Conference Women's Soccer Tournament. Coach Mascaro led the Tornados to the Championship match of the Tournament. 

BC women's soccer has enjoyed sustained success since joining the NCAA Division III ranks, qualifiing for postseason action in six of the last seven seasons. The run started for Brevard in 2018 when the Tornados won 11 matches en route to a berth into the 2018 ECAC Women's Soccer Championship Tournament. The Tornados then qualifed for the COVID-shortened Spring 2021 postseason with a spot in the USA South West Division Tournament, followed by four-straight trips to the USA South Conference Tournament from 2021-24, with the Tornados earning the top overall seed in the '24 campaign. 

Mascaro was named head women’s soccer coach in the spring of 2016 after current head coach Shigeyoshi Shinohara was promoted to head men’s soccer coach. He took over the women’s program after serving as the head men’s soccer coach from 2007-13, where his teams finished a combined 24-94-5 overall and 11-38-0 in league bouts. 

Following a year off from coaching for the 2014-15 season, Mascaro returned to the pitch for the 2015-16 year as a goalkeeper coach under head women’s soccer coach Shigeyoshi Shinohara. That year under Mascaro’s instruction, Tornados goaltender Jocelyn Springer finished as one of the top net minders in the South Atlantic Conference, ending the year with 81 saves and a 1.32 goals against average. Springer’s 81 saves finished top-five in the SAC, while her four wins and three shutouts achieved top-10 honors. 

Prior to Brevard, Mascaro was an assistant coach with the Campbell University women’s soccer program. He trained the goalkeepers, served as recruiting coordinator, and monitored academic success. He was also an assistant men’s soccer coach for the University of Central Florida for five seasons, helping lead the Golden Knights to an Atlantic Sun championship and a national ranking that peaked at No. 13. 

A native of El Salvador, Mascaro earned his undergraduate degree in Business Administration in 1997 and his Master of Arts in Applied Economics in 1999 from the University of Central Florida. Mascaro also serves as the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of Brevard College.
