Coaching Staff

Ike Ofoje, Camp Director

Ike Ofoje just wrapped up his 27th season at the helm of the USC Aiken men's soccer program. 

Ofoje started the women’s program at USC Aiken in 1997 and served as its head coach for eight seasons, compiling a record of 51-77-10. He also coached the men's team during this time. In 2005, however, Sue Vodicka was hired as the program’s first full-time women’s soccer coach.

With the addition of Vodicka, Ofoje took on the role of Director of Soccer Operations.

Ofoje, a 1991 graduate of New Hampshire College, was a two-time NCAA Division II All-American and was named Most Valuable Player for his 1989 NCAA National Championship team.

As a player at New Hampshire College, Ofoje led his teams to a 72-15-4 record and four NCAA Tournament appearances. He totaled 58 goals, 36 assists, and 152 points in 75 career matches.

He owns the school record for most career points, is tied for most career assists and is a member of the New Hampshire College Hall of Fame.

After graduation, Ofoje played professionally in the United Systems of Independent Soccer Leagues for the Boston Storm for two seasons.

Ofoje also played on his native country of Nigeria’s junior and senior national teams.

While coaching at St. Joseph’s High School in Huntington, W.Va., Ofoje earned his Master’s degree in Sports Management at Marshall University.

Ofoje, who holds a USSF “A” coaching license, served as assistant women’s soccer coach at Illinois State University before arriving at USC Aiken.
