Men's Soccer - 1982-1983



Long before Nick O'Shea made a name for himself as the highly successful coach of Oakland University's women's soccer team, O'Shea was a vital part of two OU men's soccer teams that advanced to the NCAA semi-finals.

Serving as the team captain from the center-midfield position, O'Shea earned All-Region honors as a senior. O'Shea joined the OU program after two seasons playing at Schoolcraft College, where he earned second team NJCAA All-America laurels. After college he played professionally with the Kalamazoo Kangaroos and the Toledo Pride of the indoor AISA, and the Tulsa Tornado and Oklahoma City Stampede of the outdoor USL from 1984-87.

O'Shea, who graduated from Oakland with a bachelor's degree in general studies with a minor in communication, is a holder of a United States Soccer Federation "A" License. He resides in Rochester Hills with his wife Leslie-ann and their three children, Ashlyn, Sydney, and Rylee.
