Women’s soccer: Vanguard’s Dameron resigns

NO byline

COSTA MESA - Scott Dameron, who initiated the women’s soccer

program at Vanguard University and coached the Lions for seven seasons,

has resigned to take a teaching and coaching position at Bakersfield

College.

Dameron will coach women’s soccer and teach physical education at

Bakersfield.

Dameron, who also coached at Newport Harbor and Corona del Mar high

schools, led Vanguard to the playoffs four times and helped produce seven

All-Americans. His record at Vanguard was 61-69-6 and he was Co-Coach of

the Year in the Golden State Athletic Conference in 1995.

“On one hand, it is a sad day for the athletic department and the women’s

soccer team,” Vanguard Athletic Director Bob Wilson said. “On the other

hand, it is a great day for Scott Dameron, who will be moving on to a

full-time position.”
