Head Coach Grace Cooper was also named IEAC Coach of the Year. This was Coach Cooper's 3rd CotY award.
Coach Cooper summed up the Panther's back-to-back conference championship season:
The 2019 season was a year of many ups, with one very disappointing down. Despite winning 17 games (against only 3 loses), capturing the inaugural IEAC conference championship and placing numerous women on All-Conference and State/Regional teams, the Chaffey women's soccer team fell just short of their pre-season goal of making the state Final Four. Chaffey lost a heart-breaker, 1-0, to the eventual state champion, Santiago Canyon College. While it's a tough way to end your season, it provides plenty of motivation to get out and start recruiting again. We look to add some top student athletes to a very talented freshman class and continue to push towards the CCCAA state tournament.
