Tiffin University Dragons Men’s Soccer Head Coach
Rudy Brownell announces 11 signings for

our returning players, adding
competition at every position. These are all very successful and talented
athletes, and we feel they can have an impact on our program. Last season we were one game away from making
the NCAA playoffs, and this recruiting class should help us win that extra game
that we need,” said Coach Brownell.
