Rankings from NSCAA

The 2002 UCLA Bruins men's soccer team represented the University of California, Los Angeles during the 2002 NCAA Division I men's soccer season. The Bruins won their fourth NCAA title this season, defeating Pac-10 rivals, Stanford, in the championship. To date, this is UCLA's most recent College Cup title. It was the 66th season the Bruins fielded a men's varsity soccer team, and their 11th season playing in the Pacific-10 Conference (now the Pac-12).[1]

Background[edit]

The 2001 UCLA team was coached by Todd Saldana, who finished the 2001 season with a 12-7-4 overall record. Saldana was forced to resign by the university after it was discovered that he had yet to complete his undergraduate degree. Fitzgerald, a former coach of Major League Soccer's Columbus Crew was hired to coach the program in February 2002.[2]
