Bohn has led the Leopards to 11 consecutive winning seasons - one of only 10 streaks of that length in all of Division I - a pair of Patriot League championships and two NCAA Tournament berths. His overall record at Lafayette is 108-60-36 (.619) with a 37-25-17 (.587) mark in Patriot League play and a 53-18-14 (.711) tally at Oaks Stadium. On the pitch, the 2011 Leopards posted a 9-5-4 mark - accounting for the best RPI and the second-most wins among Patriot League clubs. Lafayette's defense finished ranked fourth in Division I with a 0.47 goals-against average. Sean Peckham '13, Kyle Scharfenberg '13 and Julian Plummer '15 were recognized as All-Patriot League performers; Peckham claimed his second consecutive First Team nod, while Plummer - the only freshman on the All-League roster - and Scharfenberg merited Second Team distinctions. Peckham and Scharfenberg were also honored regionally as NSCAA All-Mid-Atlantic selections. Bohn's teams also achieve academically, as his 2011 squad earned the NSCAA College Team Academic Award for the fifth straight year and posted a program-record 3.4 grade point average in the fall semester. A league-high 21 of his student-athletes landed on the Patriot League Academic Honor Roll, rounding out his total at 131 players honored in 11 seasons. Additionally, Graham Heydt '12 and Blake Fink '13 earned spots on both the NSCAA Scholar All-East and Academic All-Patriot League squads. Success on the pitch has been a constant during Bohn's tenure on College Hill. The 2003 and 2005 teams both won the Patriot League Championship during a stretch in which the Leopards advanced to the championship game in four of five seasons. When he arrived in Easton in 2001, Bohn guided Lafayette to winning records in 2001 and 2002 (8-4-5, 8-6-4), and boasted nationally-ranked defenses in both of those seasons. In his third year, the offense came through in key situations, including scoring seven goals over two games in the 2003 Patriot League Tournament to propel Lafayette to its third NCAA Tournament berth. Bohn became the 18th coach in the history of Lafayette soccer on March 20, 2001 after serving two years as an assistant coach for the Leopards. Prior to coming to Lafayette, Bohn spent 1998 on the sidelines as an assistant at his alma mater, Columbia University. Bohn graduated from Columbia in 1998 with a degree in Political Science. He was a four-year member of the soccer team and, as senior captain of the Lions, earned All-Ivy League honors as a defender. The Delran, N.J. native also earned a varsity letter in basketball at Columbia. Bohn played one year of professional soccer for the South Jersey Barons of the United Soccer League. Bohn and his wife, Jaime, reside in Forks Township with their sons, Cameron and Quinn. Career Overall Record: 108-60-36 (.619)
