Stark departed after the 1983 season and was replaced by a series of co-head coaches. In 1984 & '85, the program was led by Mike Kelly and head softball coach Cindy Jones. Jones was replaced in 1986 by Ed Huneke, who also became the new men's head coach. Kelly left after five seasons and was replaced in 1989 by Brian Korbesmeyer. In 1990, Korbesmeyer became the sole head coach, a position he held through 2002, leading the Cougars to two Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) titles and three trips to the NCAA Division II Women's Soccer Championship tournament. Cougar alumna Lynda Bowers became head coach in 2003 and led the Cougars to two more GLVC championships and two more trips to the NCAA tournament before leaving the program after the 2007 season to pursue a career in the ministry as the university was ready to begin the transition to Division I. Derek Burton assumed the reins of the program in 2008 and led it into Division I and the Ohio Valley Conference (OVC). In 2014, Burton's Cougars tied for the regular season OVC championship, then won the conference tournament to become the school's first entry in the NCAA Division I Women's Soccer Championship. Playing at heavily favored Kentucky, the Cougars held the Wildcats to a scoreless tie through regulation time and two extra periods before falling on penalty kicks.〔http://www.gcnewsgazette.com/news/collegesports-localsports-sports/50696866/SIUE-women-reflect-on-season-after-PK-elimination?template=art_smartphone〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「SIU Edwardsville Cougars women's soccer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
