Giuseppe Pennetti was named Head Coach for Women's Soccer in February of 2015, after most recently serving as Head Coach for Women's Soccer at the College of Mount Saint Vincent.Â
As head coach, Pennetti will be charged with administration, supervision, management and staff selection for the program, which plans to start its non-traditional spring season in early-March of 2015.

Tied for the regular season championship in 2014, the Dolphins will be looking for continued success under Pennetti. The coach was more than up to the task for another Dolphins team, at the College of Mt. St. Vincent. Pennetti took over a four-win Dolphins team in 2011 and most recently guided the new-look team to a program record 13 wins, including a 2-0 victory over CSI this past season, qualifying for both the Skyline Conference and ECAC Metro NY/NJ Postseason Tournaments.Â
Â
A former four-year standout at Farleigh Dickinson University (Florham) from 1990-93, Pennetti was the Head Coach for Men's Soccer at NCAA Division II Concordia College for two seasons in 2009-10, after serving as the school's assistant coach the year prior. In 2007-08, Pennetti was an Assistant/Goalkeeper Coach at Rider University. He is currently a head coach with the Under-18 and Under-17 Girls' Nirvana Xtreme Academy team in Ardsley, NY, who finished ranked No. 2 and No. 3 in New York State, respectively, in 2014.
Â
Pennetti's major immediate focus will be on recruiting in time for the Dolphins to make an upward climb through the CUNYAC, regional, and national standings, something he hopes will happen soon, given the talent pool of his current squad.
