Head Coach Steve McCrath about Wagner

Bucs head coach Steve McCrath said, “I’m excited to add Rene to the staff as I believe his skill sets will fit in well with our program and aid me in growing me as a coach. His ability to teach and reach the players, and other strengths will add to the strong history of great assistant coaches I’ve had in the past.” 

Wagner: “I am excited to join the men’s soccer program at Barry University and I look forward to working with the staff and players. Barry is known for excellence on and off the field and I am honored to be a part of such a successful athletic program. (Head coach) Steve (McCrath), the coaching staff and the players managed to achieve something great last year and I cannot wait for next season to begin.”

Wagner played one season with the Sharks at Hawai’i Pacific, helping them to an 8-6-3 mark in 2012. He then went on to be a graduate assistant under coach Chris Fisher in 2015 and 2016.
