Cabrini University Athletics

Records are made to be broken, goes the broken record.

Records were made to be broken. Then Glen Jaskelewicz rolled out the limited-edition titanium model.

From 1989 through ’92, Jaskelewicz forged a record that no other Cabrini player has scuffed, scratched or even sniffed. In 72 career games for the Cavaliers, he banged in a remarkable 80 goals.

Jaskelewicz put the Cavs’ all-time scoring record in his rear-view mirror as a sophomore, no less, and kept purring along for another two and a half years. In an era when few college players average a goal a game for even one season, a would-be successor would have to score in every game over four years to pry the record away.

In May 2005, almost 12 years to the day after graduation, Glen Jaskelewicz returned to Cabrini as head coach. His mission: Turn back the clock to the glory days of the ’90s, when the Cavaliers won six conference titles in 10 years.

The first came in 1990 in the old Eastern States Athletic Conference (ESAC), with Jaskelewicz scoring all three goals in the league championship game, a 3-2 win over Salisbury State (now Salisbury).

As a senior in 1992, Jaskelewicz became Cabrini’s first NCAA-era all-American in any sport. He drilled 23 goals that year in 19 games (still the single-season school mark) and broke a school record with goals in 10 straight games (his final 10) — another mark that has endured.

Jaskelewicz left school tied for sixth nationally in all-time goals in Division III, ninth in goals per game (1.11) and third in consecutive games with at least one goal. Thirteen years later, he’s still hanging with the lead pack: Tied for ninth in goals, 14th in goals per game and tied for 10th in consecutive games with a goal.

Jaskelewicz made all-conference every year (the first three ESAC, the last Pennsylvania Athletic Conference), earned team MVP honors three times (1989, ’90, ’92) and served as captain twice. He also holds the school mark for career goals on penalty kicks (17).

Jaskelewicz, the seventh head coach in Cabrini men’s soccer history, grew up in Warminster, Pa., and starred at Archbishop Wood High. A history and secondary education major at Cabrini, he’s taught social studies in area high schools since 1995. He lives in North Wales, Pa., with his wife Tracy and their 2-year-old son Kyle.
