Michael Moynihan
Head Coach - Northwestern University Women's Soccer

Moynihan, an eight-time Horizon League Coach of the Year, turned Milwaukee into one of the nation’s top women’s soccer programs during his tenure. Under his tutelage, the Panthers qualified for nine NCAA Tournaments and captured 13 Horizon League Championships, including the last 12 in a row. That streak is the second-longest of its kind, trailing only Penn State’s 14-straight Big Ten titles.

In 15 years at Milwaukee, Moynihan accumulated a 193-84-38 record, including an 86-8-5 (.894) mark in Horizon League games. In 2011, Moynihan’s Panthers won a school-record 19 matches, including a perfect 8-0-0 record in conference action, and advanced to the NCAA Tournament second round.
