Jesse Goleman enters his second season as the volunteer assistant coach for the Pitt women's soccer program. A Pittsburgh native, Goleman serves as the goalkeeper coach for the Panthers.

Goleman helped guide the Panthers to their second-straight 11-win season in 2021, finishing 11-7 with a 4-6 ACC mark. Pitt posted victories in each of its first five games for the second year in a row. With 12 ACC points, Pitt finished a program-best place in the league standings by tying for ninth and also tied the school record for single-season wins set in 2021 and ACC wins (2015).

Prior to joining Pitt, Goleman worked in the volunteer assistant role for the Northeastern men’s soccer team and over the summer for the USL League Two Champions Des Moines Menace.

Goleman spent three seasons at Centenary University in New Jersey and was part of the 2016 Colonial States Athletic Conference Coaching Staff of the Year after helping Centenary win the conference championship and advance to the NCAA tournament. He worked with 20 all-conference selections and one conference player of the year during his time working with Centenary, Chatham University, Seton Hill University and Carlow University.

As a player, Goleman was a three-time all-conference selection at Centenary University and led the Cyclones to their first-ever CSAC championship and NCAA tournament appearance in 2013. He represented the USA Maccabi Team on three different occasions (2012, '13, '15) in Brazil, Israel and Chile. Goleman ended his career at Centenary as the all-time leader in saves, goals against average, save percentage, shutouts and wins.

Goleman led Allderdice High School to three City League Championships and finished as the all-time leader in shutouts with 25 and as the record holder for fewest goals against in a season with nine. He is a member of the Western Pennsylvania Jewish Sports Hall of Fame.

In the summer of 2019, Goleman started his own company, Goleline, LLC, which specializes in strength and conditioning for goalkeepers. He earned a degree in business administration from Centenary University in 2016.
