Gophers soccer coach Erin Chastain signs contract extension
Gophers soccer coach Erin Chastain has signed a contract extension through the 2028 season, the U said Saturday.
Chastain returned to coach Minnesota, her alma mater, in 2021 and produced the most successful season in more than a decade in 2024.
The Gophers went 14-5-3 last fall and advanced to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2010. The U then lost to North Carolina, which went on to win the national championship.
Chastain’s team a season ago featured forward Khyah Harper, the Big Ten forward of the year and a semifinalist for the MAC Hermann Trophy, and Sophia Boman, an all-Big Ten first team selection. Both seniors are getting a shot in the National Women’s Soccer League this spring.
