Former Columbus Crew SC and United States men’s national team midfielder Brian Maisonneuve is the new Ohio State men’s soccer head coach. The move was announced on Monday.

“We are fortunate to add Brian Maisonneuve to our outstanding lineup of head coaches,” Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith said in the press release. “He has competed at a high level and coached in one of the most successful collegiate programs nationally.
