New Season, New Look
After compiling a 125-25-10 record as a head coach, Gore was tabbed to lead the Trojans into the future as the 10th head coach in the program's history.
As part of his efforts to rebuild the team, Gore brought in 16 new players, including a plethora of freshman and transfers – three of which come with him to Troy from Northwestern State. One of the Northwestern State transfers that will bolster the Trojan midfield is Delaney Wells, who was named to the 2022 Southland Conference All-Conference First Team.
On the coaching staff, Gore brought in Eric Masters as the associate head coach and recruiting coordinator, while also overseeing the goalkeepers. Assistant coach Kayla Saager returns for her fourth year on the staff.
