Frank Olszewski is in his second season as the head coach of the Davis & Elkins College Men's Soccer program.
A veteran NCAA Division I Head Men's Soccer Coach at Towson University and United States Soccer Federation National Team staff member, Olszewski spirited a big turnaround in his first year at the helm of the Senators, leading Davis & Elkins to the Great Midwest Athletic Conference Regular Season Championship. Olszewski also helped guide Lukas Grosse-Puppendahl to G-MAC Defensive Player of the Year and Academic All-American honors in his first season.
Olszewski replaced Greg Myers, who retired after finishing his fourth coaching stint at D&E in 2015. Myers guided the Senators to a 7-8-1 overall mark winning four of the last five games and fell 6-5 on PKs in a 1-1 draw in the Great Midwest Athletic Conference Championship Semifinal.
Olszewski, who regards Myers as one of his coaching mentors, followed a similar path, beginning his coaching career at 26 at Towson where he first met Myers. During his 32-year career with the Towson Tigers, Olszewski registered the all-time record number of wins in school history with 287. The Tigers, which were nationally-ranked nine times during Olszewski's tenure, captured seven conference championships and appeared in the NCAA tournament twice reaching the second round in 2001 and third round in 2006. Of his former student-athletes at the collegiate level, 51 are domestic professionals, 10 are international professionals and 40 are coaching at the collegiate and high school levels.
Most importantly to Olszewski is the commitment to academics of his student-athletes. During his tenure at Towson, squads earned 11 Academic Achievement Awards from the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) and 248 former student-athletes earned Conference Academic Honor Roll.
Olszewski brings tremendous recruiting connections from around the United States having served as a coach and Development Academy scout as a member of the U.S. Soccer National Team staff for the U14-U20 National Teams.
