According to the Aggie website, Twila Kaufman is calling it quits after five years of coaching the women's futbol squad. The team was on the up-and-up, so kind of an interesting development. Looks like she may continue coaching at a different level. Admins are already seeking a new coach.
People in Santa Rosa (where she coached at the local JC) say she is absolutely an outstanding coach. Her record at SF State is also excellent. Good call by AD Blue.
And now we learn that she is a celebrity as well playing herself in the award winning movie “Coach, the Movie.” Her life story is truly remarkable as reported by the UC Davis Athletics website yesterday. The movie is basically the story of how she obtained her “A” coaching license by overcoming amazing odds and outright discrimination by US Soccer. This is a very charismatic person and we are lucky to get her. AD Blue is to be commended for landing her.
