Former UCLA head coach Al Scates on Harasymowycz's appointment:
"It would be most difficult, if not impossible, to find someone more qualified to add to Dan Conner's staff than Greg Harasymowycz. Many of my former assistant coaches and players coach our USA and college teams, and Greg is one of the best. His knowledge of the sport and how to win at life and work while enjoying the people and the process are extraordinary."
