Will Dyer

Will Dyer started the LTU men's soccer program from scratch in 2011 after leading the club program for two seasons.


With Dyer at the helm in the 2021 season for the Blue Devils, the team ended with an overall record of 12-5-2 (.684). LTU finished top-3 in the conference for the first time since the 2017 season. Dyer had the honor to coach one NAIA All-American Honorable Mention member, three All-Conference First Team members, and three members on the All-Newcomer Team. The team was top-25 in the NAIA with eight shutouts and finished in the top-40 in goals with 50 on the year.


The 2017 season saw LTU break multiple program records as it was the first time the Blue Devils made it to the WHAC Tournament Championship while finishing with the best overall record, 14-5-2 (.674%) in program history. A season later, the Blue Devils finished the job, capturing the WHAC Tournament Championship and advancing to the NAIA National tournament.


Having extensive coaching experience at the club level as well, Dyer has been the head coach of the Detroit City FC South Oakland since 2021. Prior to Detroit City FC, Dyer coached the Michigan Jaguars (2015-2017), Michigan Wolves (2017-2019), and Michigan Hawks (2019-2021) at the youth level.


He graduated from The Ohio State University in 1999 with a bachelor's degree in sport and leisure studies after playing for the Buckeyes from 1994-1995 before getting injured during a match. He played at Del Norte High School (NM) from 1992-1994 while playing for the SV Waldhof Mannheim 07 Youth as a kid.
