Dan Stratford introduced as WVU’s 10th men’s soccer head coach

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — WVU alumnus Dan Stratford was officially welcomed back to Morgantown Saturday morning as he was introduced as WVU’s new men’s soccer head coach.

“Throughout the search one name kept coming to the top, and that was Dan Stratford,” said WVU Director of Athletics Shane Lyons. “We looked at people from two and three thousand miles away and the guy closest to home had the ability to do just that — to come home to West Virginia University.”

Stratford compiled a 61-4-5 record in three seasons as the head coach at the University of Charleston, winning NCAA Division II national championships in 2017 and 2019.
