Alumnus named coach at Etown
Elizabethtown has named Bob Scotten as its head women's soccer coach, director of athletics Nancy Latimore has announced.
Scotten, a 1978 Elizabethtown graduate, succeeds Barry Dohner, who stepped down in January after compiling a 189-85-19 record in 14 seasons as head coach of the Blue Jays.
"We are fortunate to have an individual with Coach Scotten's experience and abilities assume leadership for our women's soccer program," said Latimore. "He has been highly successful throughout his coaching career, and, no doubt, will be extremely effective in leading our Blue Jay program as well."
Since 2001, Scotten has been the head girls soccer coach at Conestoga Valley High School, leading the Buckskins to a 101-32-11 record, six section championships and the 2007 Lancaster-Lebanon League title. He was honored as L-L Coach of the Year in 2002 and 2005.
Previously, Scotten served as head boys' soccer coach at Pequea Valley from 1979 to 1982 and was an assistant coach at both Garden Spot and Conestoga Valley. He has also coached youth soccer for the Lanco United U-16 and U-17 girls teams.
A 1978 graduate of Elizabethtown with a bachelor of science degree in elementary education, Scotten was an All-MAC selection in 1976 when he scored a team-high 19 goals to help the Blue Jays reach the NCAA Division III final four.
After graduation, Scotten played for the Phoenix Sports Club team in Philadelphia and the Pennsylvania Stoners semipro team before entering the coaching ranks.
