Nick Flohre, a native of Dayton, Ohio, is in his second season as an assistant coach after spending two years at Iowa as assistant coach and recruiting coordinator.
“Nick brings great energy, enthusiasm, and knowledge of Big Ten women’s soccer to our coaching staff,” head coach Lori Walker said. “He was instrumental in moving Iowa’s team forward to one of their most successful seasons in the last decade including two wins against Penn State in 2013. As a former competitor, he has scouted and recruited against Ohio State in an effort to exploit our weaknesses and I welcome his unique perspective of our program. Nick was born a Buckeye and there is no greater salesman than someone who has grown up as part of Buckeye Nation. I am thrilled Nick is back home.”
In Flohre’s two seasons in Iowa City, the Hawkeyes went 27-13-4, including a school-record 15 victories, in 2013. Iowa advanced to the Big Ten Tournament championship in 2013 while tallying the first two postseason wins in program history along with the first NCAA Tournament appearance in the history of Iowa women’s soccer.
Flohre was the girl’s assistant director of Ohio Elite Soccer Academy from 2008-12. In that time, he helped the U-13 Ohio Elite team to the 2012 U.S. Club National Cup finals and the U-12 team to the 2009 OSYSA State Cup championship.
A 2003 graduate of the University of Indianapolis where he competed on the men’s soccer team, Flohre served as an assistant on the Wesleyan University men’s team in from 2006-07 and the Tulane women’s team in 2004-05. Flohre has a USSF `B’ coaching license.
