Seth Trembly

Seth Trembly enters his fourth season as an assistant coach of the Utah Valley University women's soccer team.

Trembly helped the Wolverines to the championship match of the WAC Tournament in 2019, marking the second time in his three seasons that UVU has played in the championship match. The 2019 Wolverines had the best RPI ranking in the WAC after playing one of the most difficult non-conference schedules in the nation. The Wolverines played three teams that finished with a top-15 or better national ranking during the 2019 season.
 
In 2019, Trembly helped the Wolverines to an impressive 8-1-1 record at home. In his three years as an assistant coach, UVU holds a 16-6-1 mark at Clyde Field. In 2019, UVU held the ninth-best attendance in the country, bringing in an average of 1,319 fans per game. UVU broke the school record for attendance in 2019 with 13,189 fans. The team also broke the single game attendance record at Clyde Field against BYU with a school-record 3,952 fans. The game was the 12th highest attended game of the season in the entire nation.
 
Six Wolverines earned All-WAC honors last seson, including Amber Tripp (first team), Breanna DeWaal (first team), Hannah Bruce (first team), Jenna Shepherd (second team), Jocelyn Bybee (all-freshman), and Heather Stainbrook (all-freshman). Tripp also earned United Soccer Coaches (USC) All-Pacific Region team honors.
 
in 2019, UVU had an impressive 14 players earn academic all-WAC honors in 2019, including Bruce who also earned all-district academic honors and USC Division I Women’s Scholar All-West Region honors. Bruce was a finalist for a Rhodes Scholarship to Oxford and signed a professional contract with the Puerto Rico Sol.

Trembly helped the Wolverines to the semifinals of the WAC Tournament in 2018, marking the team's fifth-straight semifinal appearance at the tournament. The team picked up three wins at home during WAC play, including one of the most memorable victories in the history of Clyde Field as UVU defeated Chicago State, 6-0, in front of a school-record 3,211 fans at Clyde Field. UVU had three players earn awards in 2018 as both Hannah Bruce and Madeline Moore earned second team All-WAC selections and Brockbank earning WAC All-Tournament team honors. 

Trembly had an immediate impact in his first year with the team, helping the Wolverines compile a 10-win season, a WAC Tournament championship, and a trip to the NCAA Tournament.
 
Trembly joined the Wolverines in 2017 after working four years as an assistant coach for the men's team at UC San Diego where he most recently helped the team to its best record in program history (19-3-2) and a first place finish in the California Collegiate Athletic Association. His 2016 team also claimed the CCAA Tournament championship and made a run to the Final Four of the NCAA Division II Tournament. Trembly was a member of the UCSD staff that earned Western Region Coaching staff of the year in 2016. Trembly helped UCSD to four successive CCAA Tournament appearances and earned NCAA Championship berths in three of the past four years (2013, 2014, 2016).
 
Trembly has also had coaching stints with the LA Galaxy OC, San Diego Surf, Albion Soccer Club, Colorado Rush Soccer Club and the Colorado Girls Soccer Academy. He was named the Cal South Coach of the Year in 2014 after leading the San Diego Surf to the U.S. Youth Soccer national title.
 
Trembly had an accomplished playing career at both the professional and international levels. He was part of the original 1999 class at the Bradenton (Fla.) Academy. A member of the U.S. U-17 national team residency program, he trained with future team USA regulars Landon Donovan, DaMarcus Beasley, Kyle Beckerman, Oguichi Onyewu and Bobby Convey. That side placed fourth at the 1999 FIFA U-17 World Championship in New Zealand, with Trembly starting four of six games at left back. It later earned the title of U.S. Soccer's Team of the Decade.
 
In 1999, Trembly signed a Project-40 contract with Major League Soccer (MLS), known these days as Generation adidas, and was allocated to his hometown team, the Colorado Rapids. He appeared in 52 matches for the Rapids through the 2004 campaign. From there, Trembly joined the expansion Real Salt Lake, scoring twice in 22 games played over 2005-06. He received the RSL Humanitarian of the Year award for 2006, and finished his competitive career with the Montreal Impact, then of the United Soccer League (USL), in 2007.
 
A native of Littleton, Colo., Trembly attended Arapahoe High School in Centennial, Colo., after returning home from the Bradenton Academy. Having signed a professional contract with the Rapids in between his junior and senior years, he trained with the club while at the same time completing his high school curriculum.
