Player

DeRose attended Johnson State College, playing on the men's soccer team from 1985 to 1988. He was an NAIA first team All American and the New England Player of the Year in 1988. [2] He graduated in 1989 with a bachelor's degree in secondary education. In 1990, DeRose spent one season with the New Mexico Chiles of the American Professional Soccer League. [3] The Chiles lasted only one season before folding. During this time, soccer in the United States was experiencing great turbulence. Teams and leagues lasted a few years at the most before collapsing. Consequently, DeRose decided to pursue other opportunities in the sport.

In 1992, he moved to Illinois State University where he was an assistant until the school dropped the men's soccer program in 1994. He spent a single season as an assistant at the University of Richmond before being hired as the head coach at Bradley University in 1996. In 2007, he was named the Soccer America Magazine Coach of the Year.
