We first introduced you to Coach Julianne Sitch last month, and she continues to shatter glass ceilings.

Win or lose, their head coach will make history – becoming the first woman to lead a men's soccer team to the Final Four., and she continues to shatter glass ceilings.

In her first season, Sitch has led the team to a perfect 20-0-1 record. She is only the second woman to serve as a coach for one of the 415 teams in NCAA Division III men's soccer. But now, Sitch is leading a group of young men to the Division III Final Four — doing it her way, and making history while she's at it. Sitch is the first female to coach a men's soccer team to the Final Four in any division.

"I don't think it was ever a huge pressing thing that she was a woman," Wada said."She's just a calm presence. Like, I've had a lot of coaches in the past who are yelling on the sideline or who are freaking out at the ref." "I think it's difficult for them to say anything when we win - and so that's definitely a silencer in that regard – and we've done a good job of that this year," said midfielder Naz Kabbani.
