Phillip Bohn has been the men's soccer coach at Kansas Wesleyan since July 2014.
Bohn is the fourth coach in program history, succeeding Gabe Romo who resigned the position in May 2014 to become men’s and women’s soccer coach at Holy Names University.
Bohn comes to Kansas Wesleyan after serving as men’s and women’s coach at Central Baptist College in Conway, Arkansas during the 2013 season. While at CBC, he led the men’s program to the quarterfinals of the Midlands Collegiate Athletic Conference tournament (MCAC), and had one player named First Team All-MCAC and one player named Second Team All-MCAC. His women’s team would have two NAIA Scholar Athletes.
Before Central Baptist, Bohn coached four seasons as men’s coach and three seasons as both men’s and women’s coach at Jamestown College in Jamestown, North Dakota. In 2012, he led the Jimmies to a school record 16 wins and a No. 16 ranking in the NAIA Top 25 coaches’ poll. His team also advanced to the NAIA National Championship Opening Round and an appearance at the NAIA National Championship Final Site. He coached the A.I.I. Player of the Year and was named the A.I.I. Coach of the Year.
He also improved the GPA of his teams at Jamestown from 2.0 for the men to 3.16 and from 2.4 for the women to 3.17.
“We will bring high energy, be well organized, disciplined, well prepared and we will play hard,” Bohn said when describing his team’s play on the pitch. “We will be a possession team and we will play good defense and take advantage of opportunities when they present themselves.”
“Off the field you will see our student-athletes be respectful, and we will put the classroom first and soccer second.”
Bohn also coached at NCAA Division III Wesleyan College in Macon, Georgia for two seasons, leading the women's program to the most wins in program history in 2008 while improving the team’s GPA to 3.3. He also served as Wesleyan College’s sports information director during the same time period.
He holds a USSF National ‘B’ Coaching License and has NSCAA advanced regional coaching diplomas.
Bohn holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Mass Communications with emphasis in Public Relations and Advertising from St. Cloud State University and is working on completion of his Master of Sport Science degree from the United States Sports Academy.
