SOXDCS Lewis Wilcox 150x150

Lewis Wilcox enters his fourth year with the UCCS men’s soccer program and second season as the head coach in 2022.

Wilcox took over as the interim head coach of the men’s soccer team prior to the start of the 2021 fall season after spending the previous two seasons in an assistant coach role with the Mountain Lions. In his first season at the head of the program during the 2021 fall season, Wilcox led the Mountain Lions to their best finish since 2018 with an 8-8-1 overall record. Under his supervision, UCCS excelled both on and off the pitch as the team received three All-RMAC selections, two D2CCA All-Region accolades and ten RMAC All-Academic honors. Wilcox also helped forward Alex Andersson reach new heights during his second year in the black and gold, recording 12 goals and two assists in just ten games to be named the RMAC Player of the Year and earn First Team All-America honors.

A native of Cardiff, Wales, Wilcox came to UCCS from Briar Cliff University where he was the Head Men’s Soccer Coach since 2017. Wilcox oversaw all aspects of the program and tallied an impressive 22-13-3 record across two seasons. The program also had their highest finish in school history for the 2018 season with Wilcox at the helm.

Before Briar Cliff, Wilcox was the Men’s Soccer Assistant Coach for his Alma Mater, Midland University, for three years (2014-17). As an assistant coach, the Midland University program saw success as he helped with recruiting, leading the goalkeepers, and assisting with practice planning. Wilcox helped Midland towards a 43-16-4 overall record during his three years as they made their first ever final site appearance in the 2016 NAIA National Tournament.

From 2016-17, Wilcox expanded his coaching experience through Sporting Omaha FC where he was appointed as Director of Goalkeeping. Wilcox planned and ran goalkeeping sessions and camps, while he also developed and edited club goalkeeping curriculum as he provided individual and team goalkeeper assessments.

As a player, Wilcox played at Midland University from 2011-2014 where he earned accolades such as All-Conference, All-Nebraska, and All-Region as a goalkeeper. In 2013, his team was crowned GPAC Champions as he went on to post the most shutouts in the nation during the 2013 season and finished his collegiate career with the All-Time School shutout record. In addition to his playing experience, Wilcox spent time with the Welsh League Division I Ely Rangers AFC and the Las Vegas Mobsters.

Wilcox earned a Bachelor of Science in business administration from Midland University in 2014, and a BTEC National Diploma in Business from Coleg Glan Hafren in 2010. In addition, Wilcox holds a US Soccer C License, United Soccer Coaches Level 3 Goalkeeping License, and is currently taking courses through the Football Association of Wales.
