Shane Carew recently concluded his first year on the Stanford men’s soccer staff in 2019, helping guide the Cardinal to the NCAA College Cup for the fourth time in five years.
Carew and Jeremy Gunn have strong ties. Carew played collegiately a Charlotte from 2000-02, was a three-time All-Conference USA selection and later returned to the program as its director of operations. Gunn served as head coach at Charlotte for five seasons (2007-11), went 64-26-14 and built the 49er program into a national title contender, his tenure highlighted by a run to the 2011 College Cup final.
Carew also served as deputy to Simon Tobin at San Jose State for three seasons (2014-16) prior to taking the job at CSUMB. Tobin is in his sixth season leading the Spartans following a 27-year run at CSU Bakersfield where he coached 1993 Bakersfield graduate Jeremy Gunn. Gunn got his coaching career started as an assistant at his alma mater alongside Tobin, serving as an assistant coach with Bakersfield's men's and women's soccer programs from 1993-1999, winning the 1997 NCAA Division II Men's National Championship.
In North Carolina, Carew was the Executive Director of Coaching for FC Carolina Alliance from 2008-12 and an assistant coach at Elon in 2013. That season, the Phoenix went 15-5-3, defeated a pair of top-10 teams and advanced in the postseason for the first time, reaching the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
He was also on the North Carolina Olympic Development Program (ODP) staff and is a former president of the Charlotte Area Youth Soccer League (CAYSL).
Carew comes to Stanford from Cal State Monterey Bay, where he ran the Otters' up-and-coming program for two seasons. In 2018, CSUMB went 7-9 overall, more than doubling it win total from a year prior (3-11-2), and 5-7 in CCAA play. Carew's side finished with the program's fourth-best record since it joined the NCAA in 2004 and just one spot removed in the conference standings from what would have been its first playoff berth since 2007.
Carew, who holds UEFA B and USSF A coaching licenses, played professionally for Shelbourne FC and Killkenny City in Ireland and the Long Island Roughriders in the United States.
He graduated from Charlotte in 2003 with a bachelor's in English and earned an additional degree in communication studies from the university in 2005.
