FDU Hall of Fame
Orce Kozeski helped the men’s soccer team to three consecutive NEC Championships between 2000 and 2002 as the team’s starting center midfielder. He played a key role on the 2001 team that reached the NCAA Elite Eight, as well as the 2002 squad that advanced to the NCAA Second Round. He served as a penalty kick specialist for the Knights, tallying a career-best four goals in 2001, as he helped the team on its Cinderella run to the Elite Eight. In the 2001 Northeast Conference Tournament championship match versus Long Island, Kozeski connected on two penalty kicks, including the game winner. The Knights’ midfielder finished his career with nine goals. Kozeski returned to FDU as an assistant coach from 2003-2015 where he helped coach the team to three NEC Championships (2003, 2008, 2012) and the 2012 NCAA Sweet 16.
