BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana women's soccer head coach Erwin van Bennekom announced the promotion of Tim Verschuren to associate head coach on Thursday morning, effective immediately.
"Tim Verschuren's elevation from assistant to associate head coach is a testament to his commitment, exceptional ability to teach, and the part he has played in the growth of our program off and on the field," van Bennekom said.
Verschuren has spent the last three seasons with the Hoosiers as an assistant coach and has played an integral part in the development of the student-athletes.
"I am thankful and humbled to continue coaching and leading the Indiana University women's soccer team alongside Erwin," Verschuren said. "Erwin's unwavering support and mentorship throughout my time at IU has been incredible. His leadership and dedication to excellence have been instrumental in my growth as a person and a coach, and I am grateful for the opportunity to continue working alongside him.
In his third year with the program, IU achieved a 12-4-4 overall record surpassing the 2021 record and the most since 2013. The Hoosiers finished Big Ten play with a 6-2-2 record. This set a program record of 20 points resulting in the best finish in conference play.
In 2022, Indiana shutout nine opponents to set a new program record of 788 minutes for the longest streak without conceding a goal.
Verschuren began his first season with the Hoosiers in the Fall of 2021. He helped lead the Hoosiers to a 9-5-4 record. This was the best overall record with the most wins and highest RPI since 2013.
"I would like to thank our administration, support staff, and, of course, our incredible student-athletes for their dedication to our program," Verschuren said. "Their passion and commitment to success are the driving forces behind everything we do. I am excited to continue working with this exceptional group of people as we strive for continued improvement and success on and off the field. Go Hoosiers!"
