FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (June 23, 2025) – Freddy Delgado will join NAU Soccer as an assistant coach ahead of the 2025 season, as announced by head coach
Alan Berrios on Monday afternoon.
"I'm thrilled to welcome Freddy to our Lumberjack family. His experience at both the Division I and Division II levels speaks volumes about the value he brings to our program. Freddy is a proven coach with a track record of success at every stop in his career—both on and off the field. Throughout the interview process, it became clear that Freddy's passion for the women's game, along with his ability to connect with today's evolving athletes, has been a key factor in his sustained success across all levels of the sport," Berrios said.
Delgado is coming off a three-year tenure at Menlo College where he served as the Head Coach of the Women's Soccer program, boasting 15 wins and back-to-back GSAC Tournament semifinal appearances in 2022 and 2023. Delgado developed six All-GSAC honorees, as well as five GSAC and NAIA Scholar-Athletes.
"He's ready to make an immediate impact in every aspect of our program, especially in recruiting. Freddy has developed strong relationships across the country that will help elevate our recruiting efforts right away. His deep knowledge of the game and his talent for relating to modern student-athletes make him an outstanding addition to our team," Berrios said.
After a stellar playing career at Division II Regis University, Delgado began his journey into coaching at his alma mater from 1997-2001, helping guide the women's program to back-to-back Rocky Mountain Conference titles in 1999 and 2000. During that time, Coach Delgado was also a member of the coaching staff for the Colorado Olympic Development Program, and head coach of the Colorado Rush U16 boys club team.
Coach Delgado then moved to Louisiana to serve as assistant coach for Division I University of Louisiana, Monroe from 2001 to 2007. He helped guide the Warhawks to 58 wins in that time, including a program-record 14 in 2004. This earned Coach Delgado his first head coaching role, at Division I University of Arkansas, Little Rock. From 2008-2012 at UALR, Delgado amassed 33 victories, the fourth-most in program history for the Trojans. He led them to their first-ever appearance in the Sun Belt Championship Match in 2009.
Delgado made his most recent head coaching stop at Division I New Mexico State. He guided the Aggies to 24 wins from 2014-2017, making him the winningest coach in NMSU Women's Soccer history. Following his time in New Mexico, Delgado spent one season as an assistant coach at Dixie State, and four years as the director of coaching for Fire FC, overseeing 70 teams and over 900 players. Delgado joined Menlo after serving as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator for Colorado State University, Pueblo.
