How to get recruited by Briar Cliff University Men's Soccer
NAIA programs can offer athletic scholarships and often recruit on a more flexible timeline, so direct outreach with film is well worth it. Check the grade-by-grade recruiting timeline for your class, then reach out to the coaching staff directly.
Your recruiting timeline
Recruiting runs on a grade-by-grade calendar, and the milestones that matter right now depend on your graduating class. Open the free recruiting timeline and pick your class to see exactly what to do — every key NCAA date, sourced and dated.
See the recruiting timelineFill out Briar Cliff University’s recruiting questionnaire
Almost every college program has a “recruiting questionnaire” (or “prospect form”) on its athletics website. Filling it out is how you get into a coach’s recruiting database — it’s usually the expected first move before you email. Look for it under the team’s “Recruits” or “Prospective Student-Athlete” menu.
Use your real graduation year and a parent-monitored email. If the form is broken, only open to older grads, or you simply can’t find it, don’t stall — send a short intro email instead (below) and note that you couldn’t complete the questionnaire.

Find the right coach
For a first email, the head coach (Yan Rosado) or recruiting coordinator is usually right — both are on the Briar Cliff University men's soccer coaches page, with publicly listed emails and the source they came from.
Keep the intro short and honest
Grad year, position, club/high school, GPA, and one or two key metrics. Say why this school specifically — coaches can tell a copy-paste blast from a real message. The coach email guide has a copy-and-paste template and the mistakes that get an email deleted on sight.
Lead with film
A short highlight video (with a full-match link) does more than any paragraph. Put the link near the top so a busy coach can watch in seconds.
Send it from the athlete
Coaches want to hear from the player, not a third party. Email from the athlete’s own account and reply promptly when they respond.
