MEMPHIS, Tenn.-- - After three seasons with the Memphis soccer program, assistant coach Paul Conway will be leaving to return to his alma mater, Lambuth University to take the helm as head men's soccer coach.
Conway played collegiate soccer at Lambuth under Tiger under head coach Grant, before taking on the roles of an assistant for Grant at Memphis. In his three-year stint with the Tigers, he has been instrumental in administrative duties, recruiting and coaching with the program.
"I am excited about the future, but very thankful to Richie for giving me the opportunity to coach here and learn under him." Conway said.
The Irish native will now take the reigns of a Lambuth program that was headed by former Tiger Clint Browne. A member of the NAIA's Mid-South Conference, the Eagles went 12-4-1 and advanced to the MSC championship match in the 2002 campaign.
"It is a credit to Paul and his ability to receive an opportunity to be a head coach." said Grant. "I know he is ready and will do an excellent job."
