Nike Girls Soccer Camp at University of San Diego

Louise Lieberman is in her fifth season as the Toreros' head coach and has established herself as one of women's soccer most influential young coaches through her time at San Diego, with U.S. Soccer and as a UCLA assistant.

Lieberman has been called in as an assistant coach on the U23 women's National Team the last three years and absolutely loves the experience with the program.

Before taking over San Diego's program in 2017, Lieberman helped transform UCLA into a national women's soccer power. During her eight seasons as an assistant the Bruins made seven NCAA tournament appearances, two trips to the Final Four and won the 2013 National Championship, the first in UCLA history.

Under her eight-year tutelage, the Bruins produced 15 NSCAA All-Americans, six freshmen All-Americans, 30 NSCAA All-Pacific Region players, two Pac-12 Players of the Year, one Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year, 39 All-Pac 12 performers and 13 Pac-12 All-Freshman members.

While at UCLA she coached Sam Mewis and Abby Dahlkemper, members of the United States' 2019 World Cup champions.

"She's amazing to play for," San Diego senior Milan Moses said of Lieberman. "She' brings a great energy. What I love about her is the relationship we have off the field. She's someone you can talk to. It's not just soccer, soccer, soccer. She's inspiring. When she talks, it just makes you fired up."

Prior to her run at UCLA, Lieberman served as Director of Coaching for the highly competitive LA Rampage FC for three years. She was in charge of overseeing all 27 youth teams while managing a staff of roughly 15 coaches. Lieberman was also heavily involved in all parent-player relationships with the club. Lieberman was hired by the Rampage to be the Director of Women's Coaching in 2005 and was elevated to the main director position after just one year.

Before joining the Rampage, Lieberman served as Paul Caligiuri's assistant for both the men's and women's teams at Cal Poly Pomoma in 2002 and was an undergraduate assistant coach for the UCLA women in 1999.

Lieberman has been extensively involved with the Cal-South Olympic Development Program team, coaching at both the U-14 and U-16 levels. In 2016 she was honored with the Cal South Excellence in Coaching Award. She also worked with the U.S. Soccer U-18 National Team at their training camps.

As a player, Lieberman was a second-team All-Pac-10 selection at UCLA in 1995. She played in 78 games during her four-year career, totaling 31 points on seven goals and 17 assists. A two-year winner of the team's Most Inspirational Award, she helped the program claim its first two Pac-10 Championships in 1997 and `98, and UCLA made the NCAA Tournament in three of her four seasons, reaching the quarterfinals in 1997. Following her UCLA playing days, she played one year for the WUSA's Washington Freedom during the league's inaugural season of 2001. In 2010, she was inducted into the Southern California Jewish Sports Hall of Fame.

Lieberman was a standout at Beverly Hills High School from 1991-95, earning multiple MVP, all-league and All-CIF honors. She was named one of Soccer America's Elite 11 Recruits as a senior in 1995. She also led her club team, the Fountain Valley Spirit, to a national championship in 1994.

Lieberman graduated from UCLA in 2000 with a degree in Sociology.

Brown, formerly Leigh Ann Robinson and a four-year starter for the Toreros from 2004-07, played a key role in leading the Toreros to two NCAA Tournament appearances (2004, 2007) and to a total of 45 victories. The 2007 squad, her senior year, finished 15-3-3 overall and reached a program-best ranking of No. 9 in the country. Postseason honors included fourth-team All-America (Soccerbuzz), second-team All-West (Soccerbuzz), second-team All-Far West Region (NSCAA) and first-team All-West Coast Conference.

Prior to her senior campaign she was recognized with additional honors -- first-team All-WCC (2006); third-team All-Far West Region (NSCAA, 2006), and second-team All-WCC (2005). For her career, she finished in the top-10 among numerous Torero records including sixth in career points (48) and assists (18), and ninth in single season records for points (25) and assists (8), both achieved in 2006.

Following graduation, she was drafted in the sixth round of the 2009 WPS Draft by the FC Gold Pride. Her professional career included stops with the FC Gold Pride, Atlanta Beat, and Philadelphia Independence. In 2012, Leigh Ann joined the Torero Coaching staff for one season gaining valuable coaching experience. Following the season she joined FC Kansas City where she was part of back-to-back NWSL National Championship teams. Leigh Ann also received her first call up to the United States senior team by U.S. Head Coach Tom Sermanni and she would go on to earn two caps.

Brown was inducted into USD's Chet and Marguerite Pagni Family Athletic Hall of Fame for extraordinary athletic success on Saturday, April 30, as part of the 2016 USD Alumni Honors at the Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice Theatre. She is the first women's soccer player to be inducted into the USD Hall of Fame.
