I believe he won the one championship inn 2007.  But I would imagine that many posting here would count longevity and consistent excellence as important factors, in addition to the number of national titles.

Coaching statistics for David Saward (33 years, 359-126-59, .714).  Please keep in mind that NESCAC schools were not permitted to compete in the NCAA tournament from 1971 until the 1993-94 school year. 

[College Soccer Observer]

Since the NCAA first offered a division 3 men's championship in 1974, there have been only 25 different individuals to win one as a coach.  Dave Brandt has 6 titles, Mike Parker and Brad McCarty have 5, Josh Shapiro has 4, Derek Armstrong 3, Bill Rogers, Dan Gilmore, Mike Berticelli, Joe Bean and Jay Martin 2 each.  The single winners are Bob Hartwell, Walk Kopczuck, Mike Coven, Skip Roderick, Tony Ochrimenko, John Cunningham, Mike Russo, George Nazario, Bob Durocher, Jeff Haines, Paul McGinlay, Dave Saward, Justin Serpone, Reuben Burk, and Julianne Sitch.

The UW-Platteville Pioneers logo has mining picks because one of the schools that merged to form the school had originally been called the Wisconsin Mining Trade School.

SUNY Poly (short for SUNY Polytechnical Institute) used to be know as SUNYIT or SUNY Tech (short for SUNY Institute of Technology) before merging with another school in 2014.

The Alfred State mascot is an ox, not a bull (i.e, he's been castrated!).  In a 2018 rebranding of the athletic department, the ox, later named "Big Blue" was selected over a bear and a dog to be the new animal mascot to replace human characters Orvis the Pioneer and previously Pioneer Pete.

It is interesting how the mascot for the Lake Forest Foresters is not a Forester but rather a black bear named "Boomer", but not dissimilar to Alfred State with the Pioneer name/Ox Mascot.

Fantastic!

But also bittersweet...as it's a reminder of all your great work and contributions over the years.

And absolutely love when you show your sense of humor.

Btw, do you think you could do that with all 410-415 teams?
