An award-winning coach with NCAA Division I experience, Dallas Jaussi returns for his sixth year with the Cal State LA men’s soccer coaching staff.

Jaussi continues as the lead assistant for the Golden Eagles, handling recruiting, admissions, all program logistics, and day to day operations. Jaussi is also the lead scout for all Cal State LA opponents, a role he has had since 2018.

He earned a promotion with added responsibilities after helping the Golden Eagles win a national championship in 2021 and he helped lead the program in 2022 when Cal State LA had another outstanding season in defense of its national title.

Jaussi helped the Golden Eagles to a 15-2-3 overall record in 2022 that included a second straight California Collegiate Athletic Association Tournament championship and the No. 1 seed in the NCAA Super Region 4 for a second straight season.

In his first four seasons with the program, Jaussi has helped the Golden Eagles to an overall record of 67-8-12, including a 36-2-7 mark in conference play. In that span, Cal State LA has won one national title, two Super Region 4 titles, two CCAA regular-season titles and three CCAA Tournament crowns.

Jaussi was a key part of the United Soccer Coaches 2021 National Staff of the Year that directed Cal State LA to its first-ever NCAA championship. The coaching staff did a magnificent job navigating through a missed season of competition in 2020 due to COVID and then promptly returning to championship form in 2021.

The Golden Eagles captured all four championships available to them – the CCAA regular-season and tournament titles, a second straight NCAA Super Region 4 title and then the NCAA Division II title in Colorado Springs, Colo. Cal State LA finished the season with an 18-2-3 overall record.

Jaussi helped the Golden Eagles to a historic season in 2019. Cal State LA won CCAA and Super Region 4 championships and advanced to the national championship game. The Golden Eagles set a new program record for winning percentage after a sensational 19-1-3 campaign. Cal State LA reached the national title game for the first time since 1981.

In his first year at Cal State LA, Jaussi helped the Golden Eagles continue their high level of success. Cal State LA won its second straight CCAA Tournament title and finished the season with a 15-3-3 overall record. The Golden Eagles reached the second round of the NCAA playoffs.

Before coming to Cal State LA, Jaussi was an assistant coach and director of operations at UC Irvine for three seasons. As an assistant, he would help plan all training sessions as well as coach during those sessions. He would assist with game day tactical strategies, all game day operations and be a point of contest for visiting teams. As director of operations, Jaussi would submit and save all training sessions, lead youth camps, connect with alumni and plan team events.

Jaussi helped coach and develop three All-Big West Conference first team selections, five second-team selections and three All-Freshman team selections. That list included Giovanni Godoy, who was the Big West Offensive Most Valuable Player in 2017.

He is a head coach and college recruitment advisor for California Football Academy and an assistant varsity coach for Newport Harbor’s girls’ team.

His college playing career included stops at Colorado State University-Pueblo, where he played for his first two seasons, and then Southern Virginia University, where he led the program in scoring as a sophomore and earned academic honors.

Jaussi was a member of the Madison Dragons FC in 2007-09. He also had trials with the MLS sides Seattle Sounders FC, Portland Timbers and Kitsap Pumas in 2009.

Jaussi earned his Master’s degree in coaching and exercise science from Concordia-Irvine and earned his bachelor’s degree in communications from BYU-Idaho with a minor in psychology.  He also holds a USSF “B” license.

He lives in Costa Mesa with his wife, Amanda.
