A four-time NCAA Championship participant as a forward with Division III Kenyon College, Woo Jeon is in his second year as associate head coach with the Cal Poly men’s soccer program.

Jeon arrived at Cal Poly following a two-year stretch as an assistant with Division II MSU Denver (2021-22). During his initial 2021 season, Jeon helped MSU Denver qualify for the RMAC Tournament – its first postseason appearance in three years. Last fall, MSU Denver’s 10-6-2 overall finish marked the program’s highest victory total since 2016.

Prior to MSU Denver, Jeon spent three years as associate head coach with the Black Rock FC Residential Academy (Lake Placid, N.Y.). Helping to produce eight high school All-America selections, Jeon directed his age-group side to a No. 2 national ranking in the TopDrawerSoccer.com prep high school poll during his first year. Concurrently an associate head coach with Black Rock FC’s USL League Two squad, Jeon also lifted his youth team to a 2019/20 IMG Cup U-20 championship and a semifinal finish in the U-19 Dallas Cup.

Producer of 21 career goals and 18 assists as a standout with Kenyon College (Gambier, Ohio), Jeon helped the Lords to back-to-back NCAA Division III Championship quarterfinal appearances (2015-16) and a round of 16 showing in 2014. With Jeon starting in 53 of 86 career appearances, Kenyon recorded a combined 73-10-6 mark, finished 32-3-1 in North Coast Athletic Conference matches and captured three NCAC regular season and tournament titles.

A member of the Madison (Wisc.) 56ers (United Premier Soccer League) side that captured the 2014 U-18 Wisconsin State Cup title, Jeon also captained Madison West HS where he helped the squad to a state tournament semifinal appearance during his senior season.
