MILWAUKEE – Marquette University head men's soccer coach David Korn has announced the hiring of Jordan Grant as Associate Head Coach, bringing a proven track record of success at the Division I level and a wealth of recruiting and player development experience to the Golden Eagles program.
"Jordan is a proven winner whose success has been evident throughout his career, both as a national championship-winning student-athlete, and as a coach at the Division I level," Korn said. "He has gained invaluable experience working alongside outstanding head coaches while helping student-athletes and programs achieve excellence on and off the field. Jordan is a talented coach who will bring tremendous passion, energy, and commitment to the culture and values we are building at Marquette. His character, work ethic, and dedication to developing young people will have a lasting impact on our student-athletes as they grow as players, students and men."
Grant arrives in Milwaukee after serving on the staff at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE), where he played a pivotal role in one of the most successful stretches in program history. During his tenure, SIUE achieved the best winning percentage in Division I (.875) during the 2023 season, subsequently earning recognition as the United Soccer Coaches North Region Coaching Staff of the Year.
That season, Grant helped guide the Cougars to a historic 16-1-3 record, including an undefeated regular season and both Ohio Valley Conference regular season and tournament championships. SIUE followed up with a 12-5-3 season in 2024, claiming both the regular season and tournament championships.
Prior to his time at SIUE, Grant spent three seasons as an assistant coach at Belmont, where he contributed to 25 victories and helped the Bruins reach the Southern Conference Tournament final in each of his final two seasons. At Belmont, he was involved in all aspects of the program, including recruiting coordination, practice planning, video analysis and match preparation.
Grant also worked at Cincinnati as the Director of Operations and a volunteer assistant coach, overseeing day-to-day program operations, serving as an academic liaison and directing camps. His coaching resume also includes time as a graduate assistant at Mount Vernon Nazarene and as an assistant coach at Taylor University, where he first began his collegiate coaching career.
At the club level, Grant has extensive experience coaching within the ECNL and other elite youth environments, including roles with Tennessee Soccer Club, Cincinnati United Premier, Northern Kentucky Soccer Academy and Classics Eagles.
As a player, Grant competed collegiately at Taylor University after beginning his career at Northern Kentucky, where he was a member of the 2010 Division II national championship team. He earned his bachelor's degree from Taylor and a master's degree from Mount Vernon Nazarene, and he holds a United States Soccer Federation "C" coaching license.
