Austin FC Fires Head Coach Josh Wolff

Austin FC has fired head coach Josh Wolff following the team's failure to qualify for the MLS playoffs for the second consecutive year. Wolff, who was the club's first head coach since its inception in 2019, led the team to its first-ever playoff appearance in 2022 but struggled significantly in recent seasons, finishing 12th in the Western Conference this year. Despite a playoff run in 2022, his tenure ended with a record of 45 wins, 30 draws, and 60 losses in regular season matches. Austin's majority owner Anthony Precourt expressed gratitude for Wolff's contributions but emphasized the need for a fresh start. The team plans to search for a new head coach immediately, with an interim manager to be announced for their final match against Colorado. This coaching change reflects Austin FC's ambition to improve performance and achieve higher standings in the league.
