Anthony Gehman is set to begin his first year as Penn State Harrisburg men’s soccer head coach in the fall of 2022.
Most recently, Gehman helped lead the Lions to the most successful season in program history. As Penn State Harrisburg’s top assistant and recruiting coordinator, he helped guide the Blue & White to the NCAA Tournament, a United East Championship, and a national ranking in 2021. During his time working alongside former head coach Daniel J. Krzyzanowicz, Gehman was integral to the team’s success, which included a program-record 15-2-1 mark and memorable victories over No. 2 Messiah and No. 3 St. Mary’s (Md.) last fall.
During Gehman's first season in Middletown, Penn State Harrisburg players earned three United Soccer Coaches (USC) All-Region honors, swept the United East year-end major awards, and racked up seven all-conference first-team accolades.
Gehman joined the Penn State Harrisburg staff prior to the 2021 campaign after a stint as an assistant coach at Division I Virginia Military Institute (VMI). In addition to his on-field responsibilities, he was heavily involved in player development, recruiting, and program operations. While there, Gehman helped secure the highest-rated recruiting class in program history.
He has also become a familiar face at the club level, as he has coached multiple age groups for the State College Celtics, VBR Star Soccer Club, and Rockbridge United Youth Academy.
Gehman also serves as Penn State Harrisburg's game day manager during the spring. He played his collegiate soccer at nearby Lancaster Bible College. While at LBC, Gehman twice served as team captain and helped lead the Chargers to a pair of conference championship game appearances. He graduated from Lancaster Bible with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Youth and Young Adult Ministry.
