Allison Gibson completed her fifth season with the Bengals earning her second Big Sky Conference Coach of the Year award after advancing Idaho State to the championship game of the 2009 Big Sky tournament. She led the Bengals to its sixth Big Sky tournament appearance after the Bengals tied for third in the regular season with a 10-8-0 record. In her first season with the Bengals, Gibson
reestablished the soccer tradition at Idaho State, leading the Bengals
to both a Big Sky Conference regular season title and a tournament
championship. The tournament title earned the Bengals an automatic bid
to the NCAA College Cup, where the team nearly upset 11th-ranked Utah
on its home field, falling 3-2 in double overtime.
Under Gibson's direction, 16 Bengals landed spots on the
All-Conference First and Second place teams including 2009 Freshman of the Year Ashley Jones. Idaho State has also had 12 players earn
honorable mention. Eight Bengals have earned places on the Big Sky
All-Tournament team. Gibson earned her first Big Sky Conference Coach of the
Year for her accomplishments during the 2006 season and has had one of
her players, Lyndsay Gensler, earn Big Sky Tournament MVP in 2006.
She came to Idaho State after a five-year stint as the top assistant at the University of San Francisco of the West Coast Conference, considered one of the nation's best soccer conferences. Gibson also serves as the head coach of the Region IV Olympic Development Program’s U-14 Regional Team.
Gibson played college soccer at Sonoma State University, where she was a two time All-American selection. Later, she went on to play professionally in Japan for three seasons with the Fujita Mercury before returning to the United States, where she worked as the Director of Coaching of the Youth Girls for the Colorado Rush Soccer Club in Denver.
Allison graduated from Sonoma State in 1995 with a bachelor's degree in kinesiology, and she earned her master's in 2004 from the University of San Francisco in organization and leadership. She holds a United States Soccer Federation "A" coaching license.
