Katie Mitchell

Katie Mitchell joined the Bulldog staff in March of 2023 after spending the last two years as the head coach at Manchester University.


"I would like to thank Coach Vundum for the opportunity to join his staff as assistant coach," Mitchell says. "He has created a strong, winning culture within the program and there is a clear vision for what the team wants to achieve. I am really excited to be a part of the Bulldog family and I am eager to contribute and add value to the program."


Mitchell began her coaching career in 2019 as an assistant coach at the University of Indianapolis, where she assisted with running practices and game day planning. She also worked with goalkeeper training during her time on the staff, as Indianapolis advanced to the NCAA Sweet 16 while having the GLVC Freshman of the Year and Offensive Player of the Year.


"I'm delighted to have Katie joining our staff," Vundum says. "Katie brings really good experience from her Head Coaching role at Manchester University, and a philosophical view on team culture that is exactly what we were looking for. Katie will bring a strong work ethic and competitive edge in our efforts to keep improving as a team on and off the field. The team and I really look forward to immersing her in the program right away."


Mitchell was named the head coach at Manchester University in June of 2021, running all aspects of the program including recruiting, scouting, training, budgets, prospect camps and student-athlete success. Mitchell was also the head coach for Fort Wayne United from November of 2021 through this year.


Mitchell played collegiately at the University of West Georgia, where she was an All-Gulf South and All-Region honoree. She holds the school's all-time record in assists, while also earning a spot on the Gulf South All-Academic Team. Mitchell earned her Bachelor's degree in May of 2019 from West Georgia, majoring in Sport Management with a minor in Marketing while graduating with a 3.83 GPA. She earned her Master's Degree in Sport Management from the University of Indianapolis in May of 2021, graduating with a 4.00 GPA.

I have used the Soccer in College site for 8 years, and it has helped me keep my personal and soccer information up to date, and has helped be track college contacts and interest. I think the site helped me prepare for college offers, and helped me determine that I wanted to play for UNC.
