Joe Brady has a knack for building winning teams. Entering his seventh season on the Clark University women’s soccer sideline, Brady has led the team to three straight NEWMAC Tournament berths – including semifinal appearances in 2004 and 2005 - and guided the Cougars to the 2005 ECAC Championship game for the first time in program history. The 2005 squad finished the season at 12-8-1. Additionally, Brady transformed Clark’s 2002 3-14 record into a winning 9-8-1 mark in 2004 – a record best since 2000.
Brady has 10 years of coaching experience and holds a 106-96-8 career record. Brady spent five years as the head women’s soccer coach at Anna Maria College, where he was a four-year goalkeeper and team captain for the AMCATS. His coaching prowess led the AMCATS to three Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) finals and a 67-31-5 overall record, establishing the team as one of the top programs in the league and New England region. Brady received conference coach-of-the-year honors after leading the team to a school-record 17 wins and the CCC Championship in 1997.
Brady’s credentials include a National Coaching Diploma from the NSCAA, and a U.S.S.F “C” license. He was a goalkeeper coach for the Massachusetts State Team and has directed a number of area soccer camps, including the Worcester Youth Soccer Association goalkeeper clinic, Clark’s Soccer Excellence clinics – a goalkeeper session and weeklong training for high school and youth/club teams. Currently, Brady coaches the Girls U16 team, Inter S.C. team and continues to work local soccer camps throughout the summer.
In addition to coaching soccer, Brady serves as the Intramural Director. He resides in Worcester, MA with his wife Melissa and newborn Keira.
Assistant Coach
Heather Lipp
 Heather Lipp join the program in the fall of 2007 as an assistant. Originally from Pittsburgh, Penn., Lipp brings strong coaching experience to the Cougar sideline. Prior to Clark, the U.S.S.F. National B certified coach served as an assistant at Wittenberg (Oh.) University for the past three seasons, where she helped the Tigers capture their first-ever conference title and NCAA Tournament berth.
A former four-year defender at Marietta (Oh.) College, Lipp, has directed teams at almost every level. She guided the Dayton (Oh.) Soccer Academy U16 girl’s squad to a state ranking and held stints at Indiana (Pa.) Senior High – as varsity and junior varsity head coach – and assisted the Foothills (Pa.) U12 girl’s team. Additionally, Lipp has been involved in various area soccer leagues and summer camps throughout her tenure.
Lipp, who holds a bachelor’s in advertising from Marietta, will focus on the backfield and will be involved in all aspects of the program.
Graduate Assistant Coach
Tedi Link '07
 Tedi Link '07, a former four-year player with the Cougars (2003-06), will serve as a graduate assistant coach. Link was a steady contributor between the pipes the last two seasons. The Irvington, N.Y. native helped Clark to its first-ever ECAC Championship game in 2005 and turned aside a career-high 12 shots in a last-second victory over Keene State College last fall.
Prior to Clark, Link was a four-year letter-winner at Irvington High School, where she earned All-Section honorable mention honors as a senior. She will work primarily with the goalkeepers.
Link graduated last spring with a degree in Communications and is working towards her master’s in professional communication at Clark.
