Dustin Norman

Norman joined the Southwestern Athletic Department as the Head Men's Soccer Coach in June 2018. In his first season at Southwestern University, he led the Pirates to the men's soccer program's first NCAA Tournament. In 2021, he led the team to its first undefeated season with the SCAC's stingiest defense, allowing only three goals all season.

Norman comes to Southwestern after three seasons as the Associate Head Coach at Southern Methodist University. Norman helped the Mustangs to three American Athletic Conference (AAC) Championships while earning AAC Coaching Staff of the Year twice in those three seasons. The Mustangs made multiple trips to the NCAA Sweet 16 and were ranked in the top 10 nationally each season.

The 2017 squad went 17-3-1 overall and advanced to the NCAA Championship, where they fell to #3 North Carolina in the third round.

Prior to SMU, Norman spent two seasons at Oregon State University as the lead assistant and recruiting coordinator. OSU posted its highest Division I ranking in 10 years and earned its first NCAA Tournament win during Norman’s stint.

Additionally, Norman spent time at Houston Baptist (2008-12), Mercer (2006-08), and Middle Georgia College (2005-06) as an assistant.

A three-time Golden State Athletic Conference (GSAC) All-Conference selection as a student-athlete at Maryville College, Norman logged 36 career goals and 22 assists. He was also named to the All-South Academic Team. He graduated in 2005 with a bachelor's in business administration from Maryville and earned his master’s degree in business administration in 2008 from Mercer.
