Khanh Nguyen has served as an assistant coach for the Albright College women's soccer program since 2003, bringing more than two decades of coaching experience to the Lions.
A Berks County native, Nguyen was a four-year starter and All-Conference selection at Muhlenberg High School. Following graduation, he continued his playing career at Penn State University, where he competed for two seasons.
Throughout his tenure at Albright, Nguyen has been part of several successful seasons, including a historic 2018 campaign. The Lions established a single-season program record with 14 victories and advanced to the ECAC Championship game for the first time in program history. Albright also qualified for the MAC Commonwealth Tournament for the fifth consecutive season and reached the semifinals for the first time since 2011. Four players earned All-MAC Commonwealth honors, including first-team selections Lauren Haley, Erica Bross, and Autumn Bieber. Bross also earned United Soccer Coaches All-Region recognition for the second consecutive season.
The 2016 and 2017 seasons also featured postseason success, with the Lions recording 12 victories in 2017, their most in a season since 2005, and advancing to the ECAC Tournament semifinals. During that stretch, Albright continued its postseason consistency, earning multiple MAC Commonwealth Tournament appearances and producing several All-Conference selections. Bross made program history in 2017 as the first Albright player to earn United Soccer Coaches All-Region honors.
Earlier in his tenure, Nguyen helped guide the Lions to consecutive appearances in the Commonwealth Conference and ECAC South Championships in 2011 and 2012. Albright also reached the ECAC South semifinals in 2011 after finishing with a 9-5-5 record. The Lions continued to compete for postseason opportunities in 2009 and 2010, highlighted by a Commonwealth Conference Tournament appearance in 2009.
Outside of his responsibilities at Albright, Nguyen serves as president and coach of Manchester United, a premier team within ACFC Soccer Academy. He holds multiple United States Soccer Federation (USSF) coaching licenses, along with a National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) diploma.
With extensive coaching experience, Nguyen has helped develop players at all levels of the game, from youth soccer to some of the top premier teams throughout the state.
