Meet Our Team: Men's & Women's Asst Soccer Coaches

Dyquawn Priester is a USCU Alum turned Assistant Men's Soccer Coach! A native of Hilton Head, SC, he played soccer at USC Union from 2019-2021 and earned his associate degree in 2021. Dyquawn played soccer all through his youth and coached YMCA soccer in Spartanburg before joining the staff at USC Union in 2024. A fun fact about Dyquawn is that he enjoys hunting and fishing in his free time. 

"My favorite moment at USC Union was winning against Richard Bland my first season as a coach," he said. "My goal for this year is for the team to win the region championship."

"It's my first season with USC Union, but there have already been so many memories," said Jenny Mize, Assistant Coach to Lady Bantams Soccer. 

Jenny was born in Fort Lauderdale, FL but raised in Union, SC. She attended and played soccer at Spartanburg Methodist College where she graduated in 2006. She received her pharmacy certification and went on to coach soccer at Union County High School for six years.

"I have to say my favorite [USCU] memories have been the first time the girls started coming to me for advice on the field," she said. "My other favorite memory was our first overnight trip to Virginia. It brought back so many memories of when I played with my team at SMC."

When she is not coaching, Jenny loves to travel with her two children. "Camping and hiking to waterfalls has to be one of our favorites, but our first cruise this summer may have risen to the top," she said. 

"Growth is and will always be my goal," said Jenny. "I have loved watching the girls grow this season and can't wait to continue seeing growth in future seasons of this women's soccer program."
