CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Andrew Storton was named head coach of the MIT men's soccer program on Monday morning.
Storton becomes the 14th head coach in the history of the MIT program, which competes as a member of the NEWMAC Conference. He spent the past seven years on the Connecticut College sideline alongside head coach Reuben Burk, where he served as an assistant coach for six seasons before being promoted to associate coach this past year.
"Andrew has been invaluable to our program here," Burk said. "It's been an incredible pleasure to work side by side with him for the last seven years. I've shared so many wonderful experiences with him and we've become very close friends over our time together. He started at Conn as a novice college coach and has grown into an associate head coach capable of bringing a program to a national championship. That growth speaks volumes to his character, dedication and professionalism. He has more than earned this opportunity and I know he'll be successful. We wish Andrew all the best and he'll always be a Camel."
Storton played an instrumental role in the most successful run in program history. Since his hire in 2019, the Camels have posted an overall record 78-22-29 and won a national championship and a NESCAC title. He has also been a member of the staff that was twice recognized as United Soccer Coaches National Coaching Staff of the Year (2021, 2024).
Storton helped Conn reach the NESCAC title game four times, including the program's first-ever title in 2024 as well as runner-up finishes in 2021, 2022, and 2025. The Camels also made five NCAA appearances during his tenure, culminating with the College's first-ever national title in 2021. Conn also advanced to the Sweet Sixteen in 2025, the Elite Eight in 2019 and 2023, and finished as national runner-up in 2024.
"I'm incredibly grateful for my time at Connecticut College," Storton said. "This program, the players, and the relationships built here have had a lasting impact on me both professionally and personally. I want to thank Coach Burk, the staff, and the administration for their trust and support over the years."
Storton was involved in all aspects of the program, including recruiting and practice planning. In seven seasons he coached five USC All-Americans, four USC Scholar All-Americans, 17 USC All-Region honorees, and 21 All-NESCAC selections, including one NESCAC Player of the Year and one NESCAC Defensive Player of the Year.
"I'm truly happy for Andrew–this is such a well-deserved opportunity," said Director of Athletics Mo White. "He has meant so much to our program and our community, and I'm incredibly grateful for the impact he's had on Conn. We'll be cheering him on every step of the way at MIT."
