Background

Previous season
Main article: 2018 Pac-12 Conference men's soccer season

The four-time defending champions, Stanford, successfully defended their Pac-12 title. The Cardinal entered the NCAA Tournament as the three-time defending champions, but were eliminated by Akron in the quarterfinals. Joining Stanford in the tournament were Oregon State, Washington, and UCLA.

Coaching changes

On March 12, 2019, UCLA head coach, Jorge Salcedo was arrested, and indicted by a federal grand jury in Boston for conspiracy to commit racketeering for alleged participation in the 2019 college admissions bribery scandal.[1] His indictment charged Salcedo with taking $200,000 in bribes to help two students, one in 2016 and one in 2018, get admitted to UCLA using falsified soccer credential admission information.[2][3]

As a result, he was placed on leave by UCLA from his coaching position at the school.[2][4] On March 21, 2019, it was announced that he had resigned.[5][6]

During the spring season matches between March 21 and April 29, 2019 assistant coaches Phil Marfuggi and Matt Taylor took over coaching duties on an interim basis.[7][8] On April 29, 2019, UCLA hired Ryan Jorden as the head coach of the program. Jorden had previously coached University of the Pacific men's soccer team.[9]

Homegrown players
Further information: Homegrown Player Rule (Major League Soccer)

The Homegrown Player Rule is a Major League Soccer program that allows MLS teams to sign local players from their own development academies directly to MLS first team rosters. Before the creation of the rule in 2008,[28] every player entering Major League Soccer had to be assigned through one of the existing MLS player allocation processes, such as the MLS SuperDraft.

To place a player on its homegrown player list, making him eligible to sign as a homegrown player, players must have resided in that club's home territory and participated in the club's youth development system for at least one year.[29] Players can play college soccer and still be eligible to sign a homegrown contract.
