Jacques Edeline was appointed assistant coach of the Emory men's soccer program in August 2007.

Edeline is a familiar face to the Emory program, having played for the Eagles during the 2002-2005 seasons.  During his career, he appeared in 73 games, 60 as a starter, and totaled 15 goals and 14 assists for 44 points.  He served as captain of the 2005 squad and was a member of two teams that made appearances in the NCAA Tournament.  Edeline distinguished himself in the classroom as well, earning All-University Athletic Association academic honors all four years of his collegiate career.

Edeline has seven years of coaching and instructional experience working at the camp and club levels and has served as community coach for the boy's varsity team at Decatur High School.  He recently obtained his USSF "C" License.

"I feel fortunate to have Jacques as an assistant coach," Travis said.  "I have had the opportunity to work with him as various camps and was impressed with him.  In addition, the fact that he was a former captain at Emory shows his leadership potential."

Edeline, a native of Avondale Estates, attended St. Pius High School where he was a member of state championships teams in 1999 and 2001.  He earned his bachelor's degree from Emory in history.
