Andrew Bordelon begins his second season at the helm of the WashU men's soccer program during the 2025 season. 
 
Bordelon came to WashU from Division I University of Wisconsin where he served as the assistant men's soccer coach and recruiting coordinator since February 2022.

In his first season with the Bears, Bordelon led the team to an 8-5-3 record, with four players earning All-UAA recognition. Sophomore Quentin Gomez was named UAA Defensive Player of the Year and picked up a first team honor. Junior Zach Susee also earned a spot on the first team while junior Nathan Szpak and sophomore Carter Sasser earned an honorable mention.

Gomez and Susee went on to pick up All-Region honors as Gomez was named to the United Soccer Coaches All-Region VIII first team and Susee earned a spot on the second team.
  
During his time Wisconsin, Bordelon led all recruiting efforts nationally and internationally and brought in the No. 27-ranked recruiting class in 2022. He helped mentor four All-Big 10 honorees in 2023, three of which were part of the 2022 recruiting class. Additionally, the Badgers had three TopDrawerSoccer Top 100 recruits in the 2022 signing class.
 
Wisconsin was tied for 18^th in the nation for shutouts in 2022 and made Big 10 Tournament appearances in both years of Bordelon's tenure.
 
Prior to his time at Wisconsin, Bordelon served as the associate head coach and recruiting coordinator at Division I Northern Illinois University from April 2017 to January 2022.
 
During Bordelon's time at NIU, he helped move the program from a rating percentage index (RPI) of 171 in 2017 to 23 in 2021. The Huskies set a new program record with 15 wins in 2021 and finished the season ranked No. 21 in the national poll. Bordelon mentored the MAC Player of the Year in 2021 who lead the nation in goal scoring. The Huskies also finished the 2021 season with the eight-best offense in the nation, averaging 2.45 goals per game.
 
Additionally, Bordelon mentored the 2020 MAC Player of the Year and MAC Freshman of the Year and coached four players to All-MAC recognition in 2019, which was the most the program had since 2011. In 2018, the Huskies won eight matches, which marked the most wins for the program in seven years. Finally, Bordelon coached the first player in program history to be drafted in the Major League Soccer (MLS) draft. The program went on to have several more draft picks including the first-ever first round pick in 2021.
 
Before going to NIU, Bordelon had a pair of head coaching stops at Division III institutions, coaching at Stevenson University from July 2016 to April 2017 and Westminster College (MO) from March 2013 to July 2016.
 
Most notably, Bordelon was named the 2013 Central Region Coach of the Year and the 2015 SLIAC Coach of the Year while at Westminster College. Additionally, he led Westminster to the programs first-ever conference title and the first-ever NCAA Tournament appearance, which ended in the Sweet 16. In his time at Westminster, the Bluejays won three regular-season titles, one conference title and made three NCAA Tournament appearances.
 
Bordelon began his coaching career at nearby Drury University, where he served as the assistant coach and recruiting coordinator from August 2010 to March 2013.
 
Bordelon holds a pair of degrees from Drury, first earning his bachelor's degree in exercise science with minors in business administration and global studies before earning his master's degree in secondary education.
