Now in his 17th season as the head women’s soccer coach at The College of Wooster, David Brown oversees a program that is regularly ranked among the top-10 in the NCAA Div. III Great Lakes Region, as the Scots have won three North Coast Athletic Conference championships (1991, 1994, 1996) and been in two NCAC Tournament title games recently (2002, 2003).

Brown’s overall record of 189-95-22 (.654) not only makes him the winningest women’s soccer coach at Wooster, but puts him in the top-50 in NCAA Div. III history for both victories and winning percentage. Brown has been honored as the NCAC Coach of the Year in 1994, 1996, and 2002, and Great Lakes Region Coach of the Year in 1991 and 1992, and he received the Ohio College Soccer Officials Sportsmanship Award in 2005.

A 1989 gradate of Cleveland State University, Brown was a two-time captain and four-year starter with the Vikings, and earned all-conference, All-Ohio, and All-Mideast Region honors during his career. He went on to play in the National Professional Soccer League with the Chicago Power and Cleveland Crunch, and in the United States Interregional Soccer League with the Cleveland Caps and the Columbus Xoggz.

Originally from Newcastle, England, Brown graduated from the Harton Comprehensive School and played for England’s 1984 national boys’ club champions before coming to the United States to attend Cleveland State, where he served as an assistant coach for three seasons following his playing career. He now resides in Wooster and is married to Kim Shaw, formerly the head women’s soccer coach at Case Western Reserve University.
