Next season’s men’s soccer team will
not only have different players but also a
different coach. David Taylor took over
the position after Don Scarborough an
nounced his appointment as the College’s
new director of development.
Taylor will begin his first year as head
men’s coach in the fall of ’88. Taylor also
coaches the women’s team, and he has
proven to be a very competitive and
challenging coach.
Taylor, an Asheville native, graduated
from Brevard College in 1977. He returned
to Brevard in 1985 from T.C. Roberson
where he was the head soccer coach.
Taylor played for Staminton F.C. in
Shefield, England in 1980-81 before return
ing to the states and getting his bachelor’s
degree in business management from Ap
palachian State University. He also played
for their soccer team when they were na
tionally ranked. In 1984, David was an
Olympic Soccer Team Trialist.
Taylor believes that winning is “an al
titude, an effort and a behavior” and not
the numbers in the win-loss column.
When asked about the difficulties of
following in Don Scarborough’s footsteps,
Taylor said, “Don Schrborough will be a
tough act to follow. So I don’t plan to try
and fill his shoes because I know that’s im
possible. I do plan, however, to continue to
lead the program down the path of success
that Don has lead before us.”
Taylor also emphasizes the importance
of education and the benefits of graduation
from Brevard College. He currently holds
a USSF coaching license.
Taylor announces that try-outs will be
held for next year’s soccer teams; Men-
April 9, and women, April 23, both at 9:30
a.m. on the practice field.
