Denis Regas starred for the Pioneer women’s soccer team during its dynastic run of success in the 1980s. The team compiled a record of 66-11-2 and won four straight Northern California Athletic Conference (NCAC) championships during her four seasons. She was a three-time All-American, a two-time All-West Region honoree, and a four-time All-NCAC selection. Regas was named 1986 NCAC Player of the Year in leading Hayward to its second straight undefeated season in conference play. As a senior, she helped the Pioneers pull off one of the greatest seasons in school history in any sport. The 1988 squad went 20-2 overall with an 18-0 mark against Division II competition. They defeated top-ranked Barry University in the national title game to capture CSUEB’s sixth team national championship and the second in NCAA Division II. Regas was voted to the Final Four All-Tournament Team and named Defensive Player of the Tournament.
