NEW LONDON, Conn. – Connecticut College men's soccer coach Andrew Storton has been elevated to Associate Men's Soccer Coach as announced by Head Coach Ruben Burk and Director of Athletics Mo White.
In his seventh season with the Camels, Storton has been an integral part in the rise to national prominence for the men's soccer program.
"I'm incredibly honored to be promoted to Associate Head Coach of Connecticut College Men's Soccer," said Storton. "I want to sincerely thank Head Coach Reuben Burk and Director of Athletics Mo White for believing in me and trusting me with this opportunity. I'm excited to continue working alongside them and our players as we continue to build on the culture and success of this program."
In his first season at Conn, Storton helped lead the program to a successful postseason run that included wins over Catholic, then-No. 3 Johns Hopkins, and Swarthmore. At the time, the "Elite Eight" appearance marked only the third time a Connecticut College program had advanced to the quarterfinal round of an NCAA Tournament in any sport.
In 2021, Storton helped lead the Camels to the most successful season in school history, as Conn went 19-4-1 and captured the 2021 NCAA Division III Men's Soccer National Championship, joining Burk in being named USC National Coaching Staff of the Year. After securing an overtime victory against Washington & Lee in the semifinals, Conn College prevailed over Amherst in penalty kicks in the title game. It marked the institution's first team national championship in any sport.
"I'm really happy for Andrew to take on this new role," said Burk. "We have developed a really strong professional relationship over the last seven years working together. He exemplifies many qualities of a head coach. Over the last several years, he has been instrumental in building our team culture, recruitment of new players, running practices, scouting opponents, and mentoring our student-athletes off the field. We are very lucky to have him!"
In 2024, Storton helped lead the Camels to the NESCAC Title, a 14-3-7 record, and a return to the Men's Soccer National Title game. In the NESCAC Championship, the Camels defeated host Middlebury 3-1, to hand the Panthers their first loss of the season, while bringing home the first NESCAC Championship for a men's team. Following the season, Storton and head coach Reuben Burk were named USC National Coaching Staff of the Year for the second time.
A native of Oxford, England, Storton is currently pursuing his master's degree in sports management from the University of Florida. Prior to joining Conn, he was a three-year letter winner with the Mitchell College men's soccer program, where he graduated in 2017 with a bachelor's degree in sports and fitness management.
