Sean Driscoll is now in his third season with the Fairfield University
women's soccer team, serving as associate head coach. In that capac-
ity he plays an active role in every facet of the program, including a
prominent role in on-field coaching and the recruiting process.
Driscoll came to Fairfield in 2010 after five seasons as the head coach
at Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) rival Manhattan College,
where he posted 40 victories, including a program-record 12 wins in
2005. That is one of six single-season team records: consecutive wins,
fewest goals allowed, shutouts, win percentage, wins, and assists, which
the Lady Jaspers set under his tutelage. In his tenure at Manhattan,
Driscoll coached 13 All-MAAC selections, with four All-Rookie honorees,
and an impressive 51 selections to the All-MAAC Academic Team.
Driscoll, who graduated from Denison University with a bachelor's
degree in history in 1994, got his start at the collegiate level at Western
Connecticut State University as an assistant coach. He helped lead the
Colonials to the ECAC Division III Championship with an 18-5-2 record.
A native of Trumbull, Conn., Driscoll began his coaching career in
Connecticut with stops at New Canaan High School, Brookfield and
Green Farms Academy. In three seasons at New Canaan, Driscoll's
squad went 52-8-2, including an undefeated (21-0-2) mark in 2002, to
finish as co-champions of the Fairfield County Interscholastic Athletic
Conference (FCIAC) and third in the national poll. In nine seasons as a
scholastic coach, Driscoll compiled a 116-38-13 record.
Driscoll is actively involved in youth soccer in the state and region. The
co-founder of the Connecticut Football Club (CFC), he is the director of
Connecticut Girl's OPD and is an assistant coach for the Region I U15
girls team.
Driscoll is married to the former Heather Hathorn, who played soccer at
the University of Maine. The couple lives in Shelton, Conn.
