PORTLAND THORNS FC VS. FC KANSAS CITYFRIDAY, JUNE 19, 2015

CATEGORICAL WON-LOST-TIED HEAD COACH PAUL RILEYPaul Riley begins his second season as Thorns FC head coach in 2015 after tak-ing over as the club’s head coach for the 2014 National Women’s Soccer League season on Dec. 10, 2013. Riley has compiled a lengthy head coaching career at the youth, collegiate and professional levels.

In his first season, Riley made several key acquistions, helping Thorns FC qualify for the 2014 NWSL Playoffs, one of just two teams to qualify for the postseason in each of the first two seasons of the league. Riley acquired Spain Women’s National Team midfielder and former Women’s Professional Soccer MVP Vero Boquete, 2013 FIFA Women’s World Player of the Year and Germany Women’s National Team goalkeeper Nadine Angerer and Australia Women’s National Team defender Steph Catley as Portland compiled a 10-8-6 record in Riley’s first season.

Previously serving as head coach of the Philadelphia Independence in Women’s Professional Soccer, Riley helped build the club into one of the best teams in the league reaching the WPS Championship match in each of the team’s two seasons. A two-time WPS Coach of the Year selection (2010, 2011), Riley compiled a 21-14-7 regular-season record in two seasons at the helm in Philadelphia, including a mark of 11-4-3 during the 2011 season.

Having coached at every level, Riley began his women’s coaching career with the Long Island Fury of the Women’s Premier Soccer League (WPSL) in 2005, leading the club to a national championship in its inaugural 2006 season and a second title in 2009. Riley was named WPSL Coach of the Year in 2009 and, most recently, coached the team during their 2013 WPSL campaign. With the advent of WPSL Elite in 2012, Riley took charge of the New York Fury, helping guide the club to the semifinal round of the playoffs.

A native of Liverpool, England, Riley has served as a youth coach and director of coaching for Long Island-based Albertson Soccer Club since 1994, helping build one of the most well-known youth devel-opment clubs in the Northeast.

Prior to coaching women’s soccer, Riley began his professional coaching career as head coach of the Long Island Rough Riders from 1998-2003, earning USL A-League Coach of the Year honors in 1999 and guiding the Rough Riders to the USL D3 Pro League championship in 2002.

At the collegiate level, Riley served as head coach of the LIU Post men’s soccer team from 1990-97, registering an 88-49-13 overall record and garnering New York Collegiate Athletic Conference (now East Coast Conference) Coach of the Year recognition five times (1990, 1991, 1993, 1994, 1997).

As a player, Riley spent a 10-year professional career in the Northeast with the Albany Capitals (1988), New Jersey Eagles (1989-92) and Long Island Rough Riders (1994-98).

A midfielder at Adelphi University from 1982-85, Riley holds the program’s all-time career record in assists (43). In his senior season in 1985, Riley recorded 47 points (15g, 17a) and helped lead the Panthers to a No. 24 national ranking. Third on the all-time list in career points (121), Riley was named to the Adelphi Athletic Hall of Fame in 1999.

Riley graduated from Adelphi in 1986 with a degree in journalism and English. He earned a master’s degree in marketing and advertising from LIU Post in 1989.

Several other players are approaching 50 career NWSL games play: midfielder/defender Kendall Johnson (45), midfielder Mana Shim (44) and midfielder Sinead Farrelly (41). Additionally, forward Christine Sinclair (45) could become the second player this year to reach 50 career NWSL games played for Thorns FC, joining midfielder Allie Long.

Long tallied her eighth career assist against Washington on May 30, moving into sole possession of second-place on the all-time career assist list, just one behind forward Alex Morgan.

SCOUTING FC KANSAS CITYFC Kansas City (3-4-1, 10 pts) visit Portland for the second game of a three-game road trip, but have not played a match since May 30 in Boston, suffering a 1-0 loss to the Breakers. The Blues ranked near the top of the league in goals scored in 2014 with 39 as forward Amy Rodriguez and midfielder Lauren Holiday combined to score 21 goals for the team, but both are away competing at the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup with the United States. FC Kansas City does have both its other two top goal scorers from 2014 in midfielder Erika Tymrak and forward Sarah Hagen, however neither has found the back of the net this season. Forward Liz Bogus leads the club with two goals, while midfielder Shea Groom and defender Amy LePeilbet each have one goal apiece. The Blues boast the top defense in the league, despite being without the services of reigning NWSL Defensive Player of the Year Becky Sauerbrunn, who is also at the World Cup, having allowed the fewest goals in the league (7).
