NJIT women’s soccer head coach Ally Nick announced the hiring of Jordan Nash as the Highlanders’ newest assistant coach during the Spring of 2023.

"We are very excited to have Jordan on our staff. She will be working with our goalkeepers but also has experience in all aspects of running a program. Her enthusiastic energy fits in great with our team and is a perfect fit within our staff,” Nick said of Nash after her appointment.

Nash joins Highlander Nation after spending the 2022 season down the road as an assistant at Monmouth University. As a part of head coach Kylee Flynn’s staff, Nash helped Monmouth post a 13-2-3 (6-1-2) record and win the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) regular season title in their first year in the conference.

Before coming to New Jersey, Nash spent the 2021 season as an assistant coach at Eastern Kentucky. In her lone year in Richmond, Ky., the Colonels won nine games, the most for the program since the 2017 campaign. They also made it to the semifinals of the conference tournament for the first time since 2018. Nash additionally coached the program's first-ever conference Freshman of the Year in Nerea de Diego.

Prior to Eastern Kentucky, Nash spent two seasons as an assistant coach at Delaware Valley. At Delaware Valley, she worked with student-athletes to develop skills as a goalkeeper, instructed and structured sessions to aid in the advancement of student-athletes, created game plans, worked with coaches to advance players and communicated with coaches on recruits and recruiting games.

Nash also has experience as a head coach for the Ukrainian Nationals out of Horsham, Pa. During her time at the helm of the program, she constructed practice and game plans to aid success in players, foster a learning and growing environment for teams ages 10-13, and inspired young girls to play sports with confidence.

She is a graduate of Temple University, where she played soccer from 2015-2019. While a netminder in Philadelphia, she was named to the American Athletic Conference All-Rookie Team and was tabbed the team's Rookie Most Valuable Player in 2015.

Nash graduated from Temple in May 2019 with her bachelor's in biology.
