With a remarkable returning class, Taft College Men`s Soccer program is
looking to carry on in the same fashion. With experience under the belt, the
coaches are looking to bring in freshmen from Kern County to compliment their
talents.
Several soccer players have continued on to universities such as UNLV, UCI,
CSULA, and CSUB. The coaching staffs` efforts are aimed toward those athletes
who wish to continue both their athletic and academic careers at the
university level. The men's soccer program is designed for those student
athletes who believe that hard work and dedication is a means to success.
Men's soccer at Taft College began in the fall of 1996
with the intention of attracting local soccer players.With only one other
college in the area offering men's soccer, recruitment of local athletes
is essential to the program.
