CATEGORICAL WON-LOST-TIED HEAD COACH PAUL RILEYPaul Riley was named the club’s head coach for the 2014 National Women’s Soccer League season on Dec. 10, 2013. Riley, 50, has compiled a lengthy head coaching career at the youth, collegiate and professional levels.

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. Riley and his wife, Tracy, reside in Long Island, N.Y.

THORNS FC EARNS 6-1 WIN AT WASHINGTONPortland set a club and NWSL record for goals in a single game in a 6-1 victory against the Washington Spirit behind braces from forwards Alex Morgan and Jessica McDonald at Maureen Hendricks Field at Maryland SoccerPlex on June 21.

Portland exploded in the second half, scoring four goals after taking a 2-0 lead into halftime. Morgan recorded her first brace for Thorns FC in the 71st minute, intercepting a clearance by Spirit goalkeeper Chantel Jones and chipping it in from outside the box.

McDonald, a substitute for Morgan in the 82nd minute, wasted no time scoring back-to-back goals in the 85th and 87th minutes to increase Portland’s lead to 5-1. McDonald finished inside the box after the initial save from Jones on midfielder Sinead Farrelly’s shot in the 85th minute. Defender Sarah Huffman made a long run down the left flank in the 87th minute, playing a cross to McDon-ald for the finish at the back post.

Thorns FC got off to a fast start scoring their quickest goal of the season in the fifth minute of the match. Morgan collected the ball off a turnover and found forward Christine Sinclair open in the box as she turned to curl a shot into the left corner.

Portland doubled its lead in the 10th minute following a sequence of shots near the goal line. Midfielder Amber Brooks, Morgan and Sinclair all had their shots blocked before Morgan headed the ball into the back of the net for the first goal of the game.

SCOUTING SKY BLUE FCSky Blue FC comes into Wednesday’s match following a 1-1 draw against the Boston Breakers on Sunday at Yurcak Field. Sky Blue FC grabbed an early 1-0 lead, scoring in the second minute on a goal by defender Kelley O’Hara. Boston equalized in the 32nd minute, but Sky Blue FC had a chance to win the game late, earning a penalty kick in the 86th minute after a handball in the box. Boston goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher made the stop on the spot kick to preserve the draw.

Sky Blue FC is winless in its last five matches, but has recorded back-to-back draws heading into Wednesday’s match. Sky Blue FC has conceded the third most goals in the league (24), having allowed 11 goals on the road this season.

Head coach Jim Gabarra’s squad is led by midfielder Katy Freels who has re-corded four goals and two assists. Sky Blue FC has scored 14 goals this season, the fewest in the league.
