CHICAGO - Todd Wallace, a 2003 graduate of Loyola University Chicago, was named head men's soccer coach at NCAA Division III Maryville University in St. Louis, Mo., earlier this week. He will become the fifth head coach in the history of the school and takes over a program that went 6-12 a year ago and competes in the St. Louis Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SLIAC).

Wallace spent the past four seasons as an assistant coach for both the men's and women's teams at Maryville. The Des Peres, Mo., native joined the Saints' staff in 2004 and has also served as a state coach for the Missouri Olympic Development Program. He recently completed his United States Soccer Federation National "B" Coaching License requirements.

As a student-athlete at Loyola, Wallace helped the Ramblers to 10 total wins in his two seasons at the Lake Shore Campus, tallying a goal and three assists in his two-year career.
