FSU's Mark Krikorian Turns Down U.S. Soccer's Approach for USWNT Job

Florida State women's coach Mark Krikorian is the latest candidate to turn down U.S. Soccer's advances as it relates to the vacant U.S. women's national team coaching job.

Kirkorian has turned FSU into a perennial powerhouse, winning two NCAA championships with the Seminoles, reaching two other finals and being a regular in the College Cup since he arrived in 2005, making nine semifinal appearances in total. His experience within U.S. Soccer is limited to U-19 duty in 2004 and as a USWNT scout in 2011, but he's built a reputation with what he's achieved on the college level, which is still a chief producer of USWNT talent.
