He joined the Knights' staff from Benet Academy in Lisle, Ill., where he was the assistant coach for the girl's varsity soccer team. This past season, he helped guide the team to a 20-4-1 record and its first appearance in the IHSA Supersectionals since 2012. The 20 season wins set a program record.
