OKLAHOMA CITY – The MACU Men's Soccer program is proud to announce that it has added more championship pedigree to its coaching staff as Harvey Paul has been named the program's new Assistant Coach on Monday.
Paul comes to MACU after serving as an Assistant Coach and Director of Soccer Operations for the men's and women's soccer programs at fellow Sooner Athletic Conference rival Oklahoma City. During his tenure with the Stars, Paul helped lead OCU to SAC Tournament titles in 2024 and 2025 as well as an appearance in the NAIA Round of 16 at the final site in Wichita, Kansas in 2024, making the NAIA Tournament in both those 2024 and 2025 campaigns.
"I am excited to welcome Harvey to our staff as the Assistant Coach," stated MACU Head Coach James Roberson. "His commitment to continued development of players and winning mentality align perfectly with that we're building at MACU. He brings experience and knowledge of the SAC after a successful time at OCU. I'm excited for the fresh ideas he can bring to our student-athletes on and off the field."
On-top of helping lead OCU to two SAC Tournament titles, he also helped guide the Stars to the SAC regular season title during the 2025 campaign, finishing with a 5-0-4 league mark.
Paul was also instrumental in coaching the OCU women's soccer program, as the Stars posted top four finishes in the SAC with winning seasons in each of the last three years.
Paul's collegiate coaching career began following a four-year playing career with the Oklahoma City Stars program from 2020-23, where he served as a Team Captain for three of those seasons.
"I'm looking forward to being on staff with the MACU men's soccer program," remarked Paul. "As a player and coach, I have witnessed the success of the soccer program at MACU and I am excited for the new challenges ahead. I want to thank coach James Roberson for giving me this opportunity."
Outside of collegiate coaching, Paul also served as the Head Coach for the Oklahoma City 1889 FC from the NPSL, helping lead the team to a Heartland Conference Championship during the summer of 2024. He is also an ECRL club level coach for the Oklahoma Energy FC.
