Syracuse men's soccer has signed head coach Ian McIntyre to a "long term contract extension," the program announced on Wednesday. McIntyre oversaw the Orange's first National Championship this past season and has been the head coach for 13 years. Details of the extension were not provided as Syracuse is a private university.

“Coach McIntyre has elevated the Syracuse men’s soccer program to unprecedented heights,” Director of Athletics John Wildhack said in a press release. “He will continue his tenure at Syracuse well into the future, developing and building strong relationships with student-athletes and members of our greater Syracuse community. McIntyre is an excellent ambassador for Syracuse athletics, and we are excited to see him and his staff build upon their recent success.”

“I am truly honored and privileged to lead our men’s soccer program and represent Syracuse University,” McIntyre said. “I would like to thank Director of Athletics John Wildhack for his belief in our work and for providing this amazing opportunity for Jenn, Lyla, and myself to continue to be part of the Syracuse family and this very special community. I am tremendously grateful for the steadfast support and guidance of our sport supervisor Tommy Powell who works diligently to create the best possible environment for our young men.”

McIntyre has accumulated a record of 123-86-40 as head coach at Syracuse and is the program's second winningest coach all time.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting.  EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans.  After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years.  Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports.  Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
