“As we begin the 2017 season, I am looking forward to working with two new additions to our coaching staff, Thomas Nocito and Todd Bradshaw,” said Karbowski. “Tom brings a great insight and passion for the game. His ability to analyze and evaluate, and his detailed approach will be a welcome addition. Todd will focus on training the goalkeepers and brings a variety of experience. He provides an excitement and enthusiasm to the position to go along with his knowledge of the game. Along with returning Coach Church, I am fortunate to have Tom and Todd joining our program to provide a great atmosphere and strong leadership for the team.”
