Steve McAnulty enters his fourth season with the Army West Point men’s soccer program in 2015. After three seasons as an assistant coach, McAnulty was promoted to associate head coach prior to the 2015 season.
After going 4-10-3 during his first season at West Point, the Black Knights made back-to-back appearances in the Patriot League Tournament, including finishing with a 12-3-3 overall record in 2013. Army West Point placed second in the final Patriot League regular season standings in 2013 with a 6-2-1 mark and qualified for the conference tournament for the first time since 1996.
During the 2014 campaign, Army West Point finished 6-8-6 and advanced in the Patriot League Tournament for the first time since 1996, playing to a 0-0 draw at American in the quarterfinal round before earning a 4-3 victory in the penalty kick shootout.
A former collegiate goalkeeper, McAnulty helped mentor Army West Point’s Winston Boldt to impressive seasons in 2013 and 2014, which included back-to-back Patriot League Goalkeeper of the Year honors. In 2013, Boldt registered an Academy-record 12 shutouts and became the first Black Knight to be selected as an All-American and an Academic All-American in the same season. In 2014, Boldt recorded eight shutouts and finished his playing career as Army West Point career leader in clean sheets with 24.
Prior to his arrival at Army West Point, McAnulty served as an assistant coach at Iona College for seven seasons.
McAnulty's highly successful run in New Rochelle, N.Y., culminated during the 2011 season when he helped guide Iona to its most successful season in program history as the Gaels finished with a 15-4-1 overall record.
As the chief recruiter on staff, McAnulty played a huge role in assembling Iona's 2011 team that was ranked among the National Soccer Coaches Association of America's (NSCAA) Top 25 throughout the season. A total of nine Iona players earned All-Metro-Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) honors at the end of the 2011 season, and 14 Gaels were named to the All-MAAC Academic Team.
Iona finished fourth nationally in win-loss-tied percentage and topped the NSCAA North Atlantic poll in eight of the 12 weeks it was released. Additionally, the Gaels led the nation with six players earning NSCAA All-Region honors at the end of the season.
In 2010, McAnulty helped Iona reach the MAAC Tournament championship game. He also aided in the development of Iona's first-ever Hermann Trophy candidate, and helped mold the MAAC Rookie of the Year during that 2010 campaign.
The 2009 season saw Iona capture its first MAAC regular-season championship in school history as the Gaels piled up a school-record eight league victories. It was during 2009 that McAnulty recruited and trained MAAC Goalkeeper of the Year Nils Binstock, who currently holds the Iona career record with 25 shutouts.
In addition to serving as Iona's primary recruiter, McAnulty also focused his energy on planning team and individual training sessions, devising strategy, analyzing video and delivering scouting reports.
Prior to his stint at Iona, McAnulty served a six-year term as an assistant coach for the Columbia women's soccer program. During his time with the Lions, he helped develop nine All-Ivy League selections. He trained the most prolific goalkeeper in Columbia history in Ali Ahern. She still holds school records for career shutouts, single-season shutouts, career goals-against average and single-season goals-against average.
McAnulty was a three-year starter at Columbia during his collegiate playing days.
In addition to his soccer experiences, McAnulty also served as a FDNY firefighter.
