== Playing and coaching career ==

=== Vicious ===
Pauley coached Data Support Systems (DSS), the team that became Vicious, during its 2006 [[Paintball Sports Promotions]] (PSP) Division 3 campaign. Backed by Karen and Carl Bortol, the team won the SoCal Open and the Division 3 X-ball series title that season.[2]

DSS adopted the Vicious name when it moved into Division 2 in 2007. Pauley combined playing and coaching duties, and the team won the Chicago Open and the Division 2 series title. Vicious subsequently won the Division 1 World Cup in 2008 and the semi-professional World Cup in 2009.[2]

=== Ac Dallas and ac Diesel ===
Pauley later coached within the ac programme. The Paintball Combine identified him as a coach representing both ac Dallas and ac Diesel, with opportunities for participants to be considered for places on his professional and semi-professional teams.[3]

The [[National Xball League]] credited Pauley with assembling a core of former [[Texas Storm]] players for ac Diesel. The team finished in the top five at every NXL tournament in 2019 before entering the professional division following Scottsdale Elevation's relegation.[4]

Pauley also worked with the rebuilt ac Dallas roster in 2021, which drew players from the Division 2 [[PaintballFIT]] team.[4]
