Ony Dozie, General Manager stated, “It’s been quite an honor to be employed by such a club with rich history right in the heart of the South Bay. The L.A. Wolves were L.A.'s first professional soccer team way going back to 1967 and winning the inaugural U.S. Championship. Yan Skwara has done a great job in bringing the club back into exsistence and rebranding it and that's something I want to be a part of: history and quality football. Soccer in Torrance has always received national recognition and I felt it was truly the right time to rise to the occasion. The birthplace of American Youth Soccer and the history that the L.A. Wolves has was always an attraction to me. A team that has maintained a phenomenal record in the Western Conference and its unique continental footballing philosophy is something which I felt could only develop me as a student of the Beautiful Game.
