Further, Max Collingwood was named the RMAC’s GK of the Year, the team pulled out two great results against the #17 and #3 teams in the nation, and finished off their third winning season in a row. The 2021 season saw the Cougars finish 10-5-1 and was also historic. The 10 wins set a new school record for single season wins in program history. His coaching helped five CCU players earn All-Conference recognition which was also the most in program history for a season.
In his second campaign, during a chaotic 2020-21 school year he guided the program to a 6-5 record. The first winning record in program history. During that historic season, he coached Max Collingwood to the league’s Defensive Player of the Year honor while guiding two addition players to All-Conference accolades.
Camp, who brings a host of accolades to the school, joins the department after serving as the assistant coach at East Tennessee State for two seasons, during which he won a regular season conference championship.

The Tennessee native holds national B, C, D, E and Youth licenses in coaching education from the U.S. Soccer Federation. He also has goalkeeper level I and II licenses and Director of Coaching diplomas from the United Soccer Coaches.
Prior to joining the Buccaneers, Camp was an assistant coach at Maryville College as well as the Head Coach for the Knoxville Force of the National Premier Soccer League (NPSL).

Quoted from Coach Camp:
“I chose to be at CCU because I felt led to be here. My passion is to get a group of guys to rally around a common goal. The common goal here is to build this program, and to encourage guys to be men of God.”
“I think the thing we live by here at CCU is the saying of ‘no nice guys’ brought about by CCU alumnus and Christian author John Elderidge. He says Christian men need to seek adventure, fight their battles, and seek to be more than just nice guys.”
“The biggest encouragement we give to our guys is to reject entitlement. We are all blessed to be playing and attending a DII university. Hard work got us here, and hard work will keep us here. Be grateful, be humble.”
