Michael Marchiano was named the next head coach of Maryland women’s soccer Wednesday, Maryland Athletics announced.
Marchiano led the Terps to a 1-3-1 record in five Big Ten games as interim head coach, after previous head coach Meghan Ryan Nemzer parted ways with the program on Oct. 10. Maryland’s 2-0 win over Nebraska under Marchino’s leadership snapped a 721-day scoreless streak in conference play.
Maryland finished the year 4-10-5, with a 1-8-2 Big Ten record.
Marchiano won two national championships as a player with Maryland men’s soccer in his four years as a midfielder from 2005 to 2008, and was a team captain for his final two seasons.
