THE WOLVES HEADING INTO 2024
The Western Oregon men's soccer team is coming off a near-championship season in year two of the program's existence and first year under head coach Michael Behonick.
 
The Wolves went from a 2-13-2 team (1-10-1 in conference) in their first season in 2022 to 11-3-3 overall and 8-1-3 in GNAC play last. WOU finished just short of a GNAC title as with games in the conference canceled due to inclement weather, the standings came down to points per match. WOU finished at 2.25 points per match with its 8-1-3 conference record, .02 points behind Simon Fraser's 2.27 with an 8-2-1 record.
 
WOU's Behonick was named the GNAC Coach of the Year and he returns four players that earned postseason honors in 2023, including all-region midfielder Yahir Ocampo Navarro. The sophomore had a breakout first season as he was named All-GNAC First Team as well after three goals and a team-best six assists. Alejandro Velasco, Harper Neubeck and Ethan Fisher earned All-GNAC Honorable Mention for the Wolves last season as well.
 
Add to it WOU does it with local talent with 19 players on the Wolves roster from Oregon.
