First Day at Johns Hopkins: March 2, 2020

Dan Weiler returns for this third season and fourth year as the head coach at Johns Hopkins in 2023.  All he's done in his first two seasons is lead the Blue Jays to a 39-2-4 record and the program's first national championship.  He enters the 2023 season with an overall record of 296-82-40; he is the only active women's soccer coach in the nation with 100 or more wins at two different Division III schools.

Building off a highly-successful first season, Weiler led Johns Hopkins to a 23-0-2 record and a 21-game season-ending winning streak that culminated with a 2-1 win over Case Western in the 2022 NCAA Championship game.  The Blue Jays stood at 2-0-2 after their first four games, but reeled off the 21-game run that included six wins in the NCAA Tournament.  Hopkins set a school record by scoring 99 goals during the 2022 season and outscored its six NCAA Tournament opponents 20-3.

For his efforts in 2022, Weiler was named the D3soccer.com National Coach of the Year and he and his staff grabbed Centennial Conference Coaching Staff of the Year honors.  In additon, three Blue Jays earned All-America honors, one grabbed Academic All-America status and a program-record-tying eight players were named to the All-Centennial Conference Team.

Weiler’s first full season resulted in a Sweet 16 appearance for the Jays, finishing 16-2-2. Hopkins went a perfect 10-0 during the Centennial Conference regular season and reached as high as #2 in the United Soccer Coaches poll during the 2021 season.

The successful season saw the Blue Jays earn a plethora of accolades with Weiler overseeing a pair of United Soccer Coaches first team All-Americans in Katie Sullivan and Bonnie Shea. Five Blue Jays earned All-Region honors under Weiler’s leadership in 2021 and two of his players earned CoSIDA Academic All-America honors.

Weiler was named the second head coach in Johns Hopkins women's soccer history on February 19, 2020 after a highly-successful seven-year run as the head coach at Christopher Newport (VA). However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Weiler didn’t coach his first game at JHU until September 4, 2021.

Weiler guided Christopher Newport to unparalleled success during his seven years in Newport News.  The Captains posted an overall record of 113-22-12 (.810), including a 55-3-3 (.926) mark in the Capital Athletic Conference (CAC), under his guidance.  Christopher Newport won six CAC regular season titles and three CAC tournament titles, advanced to the NCAA Tournament six times and made the program's first-ever trip to the national semifinals in 2018.

The 2018 d3soccer.com National Coach of the Year, Weiler coached six All-Americans, a three-time CoSIDA Academic All-American, one NCAA Elite 90 Award Winner, 20 NSCAA/USC All-Region selections, five CAC Players of the Year and four CAC Rookies of the Year while at Christopher Newport.

Prior to his time at CNU, Weiler spent 11 seasons as the head women's soccer coach at Concordia (MN) and built the Cobbers into a regional power.  In his 11 seasons there, he compiled a record of 144-58-24 (.690), led the team to the NCAA Tournament in six of his final seven seasons and was twice named the NSCAA Regional Coach of the Year (2009, 2012).  He led the Cobbers to the Sweet 16 three times in his final four years before moving to Christopher Newport after the 2012 season.

During his time at Concordia, he also spent five years coaching the men's soccer team (2007-11) and transformed the program from a three-win team in his first season to a 13-win team in his final year.

A native of Fargo, North Dakota, Weiler graduated Magna Cum Laude from Moorhead State University in 1996. He and his wife, Kilee Kadrie-Weiler, have two daughters, Fyrn and Noella.
