McCormack is no stranger to the sidelines for the Green and Gold after spending a combined eight seasons as an Assistant Coach for Piedmont soccer, seven of those with the Lady Lions, prior to taking over as the Head Women's Soccer Coach before the '17 campaign. In the midst of one of the more uncertain times as schools across the country dealt with the ramifications of COVID-19, the Lady Lions stayed steady winning the 2021 Spring USA South Athletic Conference Championship with another 1-0 over Maryville College, this time doing so at the home of the Scots.  The tournament championship marked the 8th conference championship in McCormack's 11 seasons with the program including the last four seasons as the Head Coach.  In his second season as head coach, McCormack led the Lady Lions to its fourth USA South Tournament Championship as Piedmont defeated long-time rival Maryville College, 1-0. Piedmont would advance to the NCAA tournament where it played its closest tournament game to date, falling 2-1 to No. 17 Lynchburg College. The Lady Lions posted 16 shutouts on the season and outscored opponents 41-10 while out-shooting the opposition 18-9.    Piedmont posted a 16-0-4 record under McCormacks leadership in 2017 as the Lady Lions posted 14 shutouts and outscored opponents 53-8. Defensive prowess has been McCormacks specialty as his work with the defensive side of the squad helped Piedmont to 110 shutouts over his combined nine years with the Lady Lions including 18 in 2015.   McCormack has been on the sidelines with the Lady Lions for one of the most impressive decades of soccer in the programs history. Though he just completed his first season as Head Coach, McCormack was an assistant with the program when the women won four conference titles (2011, 2013, 2015, 2016) and helped Piedmont to four NCAA tournament appearances.   In 2015, McCormack helped the Lady Lions to one of their finest seasons in program history with a record 20 wins as Piedmont went 20-2-1 overall with a 10-1-1 conference record on the way to a USA South Tournament Championship and another NCAA Tournament appearance. McCormack saw another All-Conference selection in the goal with Michaela Gardner taking the honors on the way to becoming the second NSCAA All-Region goalkeeping selection since 2009. McCormack spent two stints as an assistant with the womens program from 2009-2011 and again from 2013-2017. Before switching over to the womens side of the PC soccer program, McCormack operated as an assistant coach with Piedmonts mens soccer team in the fall of 2008.   In the fall of 2012, McCormack led his alma mater Huntingdon College to one of its winningest mens soccer seasons in the previous decade including a victory over 5-time defending conference champions Maryville College, a feat the Hawks had not accomplished since 1999. With the 2-1 win over the Scots snapping a 29-game losing streak to the perennial power, McCormacks squad improved its winning percentage from the previous season and posted a draw with Rhodes College, an opponent that had defeated the Hawks by a combined score of 15-2 in their previous four meetings. As an active member of United Soccer Coaches, McCormack holds a National Goalkeeping Diploma and Advanced National Diploma in addition to a National B License from the United States Soccer Federation. Having been a member of the camp staffs at the University of Notre Dame, Maryville College, and the Cajun Soccer Club, McCormack also served as the Co-Director of the Marshall Soccer School along with Marshall University Head Mens Soccer Coach Bob Gray in the summer of 2007.   The Lady Lions coach spent his playing days at Great South Athletic Conference member & current USA South member Huntingdon College where he was named to the 2003 GSAC All-Freshman Team and the 2006 All-Tournament Team at the Kyle Rote Jr. Invitational.  Prior to his arrival at the collegiate ranks, McCormack won a trio of state championships with the Capital City Soccer Club making a pair of appearances in the US Youth Soccer Southeast Regional Championships.   A 2008 graduate of Huntingdon College, McCormack earned his Bachelor of Arts in History. He followed that with a Master of Arts in Teaching from Piedmont College in 2010.    Currently residing in northeast Georgia, McCormack manages all aspects of the womens soccer program while also serving as an Assistant Director of Intercollegiate Athletics. The Huntingdon alum married the former Jamie Edwards, who serves as the Head Volleyball Coach at Piedmont, in 2008 after the two finished their collegiate playing careers at the fellow conference member institution.
