CLAREMONT, CA – Clint Moore has been named the new head coach of the Pomona-Pitzer Men's Soccer team, as announced by the Sagehen Athletic Department.
 
Moore joins the Sagehens after eight seasons as an assistant coach at the Colorado School of Mines, where he helped guide the Orediggers to an 86-41-21 record. During his tenure, Mines captured six RMAC Regular-Season crowns, five RMAC Tournament titles, and made five NCAA Tournament appearances—including a trip to the Sweet 16 in 2019.
 
Under Moore's leadership, the program produced 36 All-RMAC players, 21 all-region selections, and six All-Americans. His mentorship also resulted in one RMAC Player of the Year, two RMAC Defensive Players of the Year, and two South Central Regional Players of the Year. Moore was part of the United Soccer Coaches South Central Regional Staff of the Year in both 2019 and 2020-21. Four times during his tenure, Mines swept both the RMAC regular-season and tournament titles, with five straight regular-season championships from 2018 to 2022 and three consecutive tournament wins from 2018 to 2020.
 
Before Mines, Moore coached at the United States Air Force Academy, where he was part of the 2017 United Soccer Coaches West Region Division I Staff of the Year. With Moore on staff, the Falcons posted a program-best 11-1 home record, earned 10 shutouts, and won the first Western Athletic Conference Regular-Season title in program history. He also helped guide a program-best eight players to All-WAC honors.
 
From 2015–2016, Moore served as an assistant coach at Illinois Wesleyan in Bloomington, Illinois. During his time with the Titans, he was involved in all aspects of managing an NCAA Division III program, including recruiting, student-athlete development, academic advising, travel operations, community engagement, and soccer camps. His leadership helped IWU rise from the bottom of the conference standings to a top-three finish in 2016 and its first trip to the conference tournament since 2012.
 
Moore also coached for two seasons at his alma mater, Knox College in Galesburg, Illinois. While at Knox, he worked with both the men's and women's programs and served as interim head coach for both teams on separate occasions. His impact was immediate—leading the men's team to its first regular-season conference title since 1988. That season, the program earned MWC Coach of the Year, Player of the Year, Offensive Player of the Year, and Defensive Player of the Year honors. Over two seasons, Moore guided the team to a 28-10 record with back-to-back trips to the conference tournament.
 
"It's a privilege to be named the next men's soccer coach at Pomona-Pitzer," said Moore. "I am grateful for the opportunity to lead this program and thank Dr. Miriam Merrill and the members of the search committee for their roles in bringing me to Pomona-Pitzer Athletics. I'm excited to work hard and build on the strong foundation that Coach Swartz established during his tenure.
 
Colorado School of Mines gave me seven rewarding seasons, and my time there will be cherished. I learned so much inside a great program and department while competing against some of the nation's best Division II programs. I will take these experiences into my new role to coach, mentor, and lead our Pomona-Pitzer student-athletes. We have a talented group, and I am eager to get started!"
 
Moore was a dual-sport athlete at Knox College, where he earned four varsity letters each in soccer and basketball. He was a two-year captain in soccer and a one-year captain in basketball, earning multiple scholar-athlete awards throughout his collegiate career. Academically, Moore completed a double major in biology and environmental studies, graduating with honors in biological research. He was the recipient of a summer research fellowship from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, a Knox College Richter Memorial Scholarship, and an award from the Illinois State Academy of Science Research Conference for his independent honors research.
