"As a parent, I was 100% confident my daughter would have a Coach that could mentor her through life and provide guidance beyond the field. Unlike many coaches, he's not doing this to advance his career or for the money, he's doing it because he love coaching. Of all the coaches and we spoke with throughout the recruiting process, Oz was by far the best overall person and mentor. The only reason our daughter is not going to IWU, is because the school she chose is top 4 in the country for her degree, and a 10 minute train ride from internships and part time jobs. Telling Oz she wasn't coming to IWU was hard on my daughter and me as a parent. I would highly recommend IWU and Coach Oz if you're looking for a school and a soccer program that's develops the entire person. We have every intention of staying in contact with Oz as he builds IWU's women's soccer program. If anyone wants more detail and my daughters' major, happy to share that offline. "
"I’ve only had him as a coach for a short amount of time but I do think he knowledgeable about soccer. I will say though his practices can be very repetitive and lack a little bit of creativity. But besides that, I think he motivates his players well and pushes them. "
