Under Klaus' direction, the Harper program has been extremely successful. In 2015, the Hawks finished with an 11-4-3 overall record and went 8-1-1 in North Central Community College Conference (N4C) play to win the conference regular season title outright. More importantly, they went 3-0 in the Region IV Tournament, including wins over defending Region IV Champion Rock Valley College in the Region IV Semifinals and Joliet Junior College in the Region IV Championship, to become the 2015 Region IV Champions. Six Harper College men's soccer players were named to either an All-Region or All-Conference team. Finally, Niko Mihalopoulos was selected as a Second Team All-American, becoming the first Hawks men's soccer player since Matt Polovin in 1993 to win the award.
In 2014, the Hawks finished with an 8-6-2 record and finished runner-up to Rock Valley College in the Region IV Tournament. Six players were named to either the All-Region or All-Conference team.
This year, the team opens regular season play on August 17 against Waubonsee Community College at 5 PM on the campus of Harper College.
