Before arriving in Middletown, Geoff, who holds the rank of adjunct associate professor of physical education, spent two years as a Stanford University assistant coach in 1997 and 1998. He also enjoyed coaching stints at his alma mater, Dartmouth, as well as Middlesex School in Concord, Mass.

       A 1993 graduate of Dartmouth, Geoff was a four-year letterwinner in soccer, helping the squad qualify for the NCAA tournament twice as well as capture two Ivy League titles.  A team captain in 1992, he earned all-Ivy honors and led the team to the Elite Eight in the NCAA tournament.  Geoff continued his playing career in Zimbabwe before returning to the states to play for the Cape Cod Crusaders of the USISL.  After he returned East from Stanford, he suited up for both the Connecticut Wolves and the Boston Bulldogs of the A-League.         
      Geoff currently holds his USSF A license, received an advanced national diploma from the NSCAA in 1998 and attended an NSCAA refresher course in 2006.  He also is the director of the East Coast Soccer Academy, an overnight camp at Wesleyan aimed to attract top student-athletes interested in playing at NESCAC or Ivy League colleges.  He also added regional U-17 ODP coaching to his repertoire this summer.  In addition to his soccer coaching duties, Geoff has been an assistant men's squash coach since his arrival at Wesleyan, including one season as interim head coach, and earned a master's degree in liberal studies at the University in 2007.

      Joining the Wesleyan staff in 2004, Rob Stone, now in his sixth season, brings a wealth of coaching experience to the Cardinals.  His 20 years at the Nichols School in Buffalo, N.Y. combined with a short stint at St. Lawrence University, make him an invaluable asset to the program.  Rob played at St. Lawrence from 1972 to 1975, captaining the team in his senior year.  In addition to earning his undergraduate degree from St. Lawrence, Rob also received an M.Ed. in 1978.  He has since followed his passion for teaching and coaching by grooming high-school students for the college rigors in the classroom and on the field.  He helped mold former two-year captain Padraig Hughes '03 into an all-NESCAC student-athlete. 
      Rob holds an advanced national diploma from the NSCAA and a C License from the USSF.  He started a youth soccer program in Lake George, N.Y. and has been involved with the Empire State games.  In addition to his soccer duties at Wesleyan in the fall, Rob assists with the women's lacrosse squad during the spring and also assisted with Wesleyan's women's ice hockey team during the 2008-09 campaign..
