HEAD COACH CALEB PORTERHead coach Caleb Porter enters his fourth season with the club in 2016 aftersigning a long-term contract extension on Jan. 27, 2016. Since joining the Timbers in 2013, Porter has compiled one of the league’s top winning percentages among active MLS coaches with a record of 44-31-39 (.557), leading the Timbers to their first MLS Cup title in 2015, two Western Conference Championship appearances and double-digit wins in each of his first three seasons.

Over Porter’s first four seasons, the Timbers have lost the third fewest games (31) of any MLS team, behind only the New England Revolution (28) and LA Galaxy (30), and have compiled regular-season point totals of 57 (2013), 49 (2014) and 53 (2015). Additionally, since 2013, Portland’s combined point total (171) ranks tied as the sixth most in MLS, behind only the LA Galaxy (185), FC Dal-las (181), Seattle Sounders FC (180), New York Red Bulls (179) and Sporting Kansas City (175). Portland has also registered a league-best 35 shutouts in that span, while the club’s 14 road wins over the last three seasons rank as the most in MLS over that span.

The 2013 MLS Coach of the Year, Porter coached in his 100th game as an MLS coach against Real SaltLake on Oct. 14, 2015, posting a record of 39-25-36 in those games, which tied San Jose Earthquakeshead coach Dominic Kinnear for the fewest losses (25) in MLS history in a coach’s first 100 careergames. In addition, his .570 winning percentage during that span ranks fourth among active coachesthrough their first 100 games, behind the LA Galaxy’s Bruce Arena (62-37-1, .625), Seattle’s Sigi Schmid(52-33-15, .595) and Kinnear (40-25-35, .575). Ending the 2015 campaign with a nine-game unbeatenrun across all competitions, the Timbers lifted their first MLS Cup trophy with a 2-1 win over Columbus Crew SC on Dec. 6, 2015. Portland finished the regular season with an MLS-club-record 15 wins, whilealso tying for the league lead in shutouts (13). On the road, the Timbers finished the 2015 season tiedfor the most road wins (7) in the league.

During his tenure, the Timbers have qualified for CONCACAF Champions League twice (2014-15, 2016-17), finished in the top three in the Western Conference in two of his first three seasons and made theirdeepest run in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, reaching the semifinals in 2013.

Porter received the Slats Gill Award for Sportsperson of the Year at the Oregon Sports Awards on March 9, 2014, becoming the fourth soccer-related figure to receive the award sinceit was founded in 1957. On Aug. 6, 2014, Porter helped guide the MLS All-Stars to a 2-1 win over Ger-man power Bayern Munich in the 2014 AT&T MLS All-Star Game at Providence Park in Portland.

During Porter’s first season with Portland in 2013, the Timbers assembled one of the biggest turnaroundseasons in MLS history, finishing the regular season atop the Western Conference table. In comparisonto 2012 totals, the Timbers assembled a 23-point improvement in points and an MLS-record, 43-goalimprovement in goal differential. Portland’s five losses during the 2013 regular season tied for the few-est in MLS history in a 34-game season and the Timbers led the league with 15 shutouts. The Timbersrecorded a 15-game, home unbeaten streak during the 2013 regular season, posting a league-best11-1-5 home record at Providence Park and an MLS single-season record 11 home shutouts. In 2014,the Timbers netted a team-record 61 goals while recording the best goal differential (plus-9) of anynon-playoff team in MLS history.
