Lorraine Quinn joined the Army West Point women's soccer coaching staff in June, 2013. The 2015 season marks Quinn's third on Marcia McDermott's staff and the first as associate head coach.

The Black Knights returned to the postseason in 2014 as they finished fourth in the Patriot League and again hosted a First Round Patriot League Tournament game at Clinton Field. Quinn mentored two All-Patriot League honorees, first-team selection Katie Holder and rookie third-team pick Clare Shea.

Quinn's first season on McDermott's staff was a successful one for Army as the Cadets ended the season with an 8-7-4 mark and earned the fourth seed in the Patriot League Tournament. All-Patriot League honors were handed out to seniors Kimberly An, Molly McGuigan and Joey Molacek, who were tabbed as first-team selections, while Holder landed on the third team following her sophomore campaign.

Army West Point players have excelled in the classroom as well, with 10 players earning Patriot League Academic Honor Roll recognition each of the past two seasons. Among them were Academic All-Patriot League selections Jaclyn Kalik, McGuigan and Molacek in 2013 and Holder in 2014.

McGuigan was awarded the Army Athletic Assocaition Trophy in 2013, presented to one male and one female cadet who display the "most valuable service to intercollegiate athletes during a career as a cadet."

Prior to her arrival at West Point, Quinn served on the staff at William & Mary where she helped the Tribe to the Colonial Athletic Association regular-season title and tournament host en route to posting a 14-5-1 record.

Quinn helped mentor midfielder Mallory Schaffer, who earned a plethora of awards to include second-team All-America honors with her selection to the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) and the Senior Class Award. She was also the CAA Player and Scholar Athlete of the Year and was one of three Tribe members honored by the Virginia Association of Sports Information Directors (VaSID) with all-state honors. Schaffer and Kiersten Harpe garnered first-team accolades with Cortlyn Bristol named to the second unit.

Following graduation from Duke in 2008, Quinn was a member of the U.S. U-23 Nordic Cup squad that posted a 3-0 win over Germany in the championship game. She broke into the coaching ranks serving as a volunteer assistant coach for the varsity boys' soccer team at her alma mater, Farmingdale High School, in 2009.

Quinn then headed to the United Kingdom to serve an assistant at Durham University, where she was involved in scheduling, traveling, individual player records, recruiting, training sessions, budget management and film. During that one-year tenure, Quinn helped Durham capture the 2012 Futsal National Championship along with earning her master's degree in business management.

An outstanding athlete at Duke, Quinn garnered All-America honors in 2007, was a three-time all-ACC selection, a two-time All-Southeast Region pick along with being named to the MAC Hermann Trophy Watch List her senior year. A midfielder, Quinn posted game-winning goals against Radford and Virginia in the NCAA College Cup.

Quinn closed out her collegiate career ranked first in games played (91) and second in games started (88) before picking up her degree in sociology. Excelling on the pitch and in the classroom, Quinn was named to the ACC All-Academic Team in 2007 and 2008 as well as the ACC Honor Roll.

During her prep school days, Quinn was a member of the Under-19, Under-17 and Under-16 United States Women's National teams. She was the Gatorade N.Y. State Player of the Year in 2003 and was a member of McDonald's All-America team in 2004. In addition, she was a two-time NSCAA All-America and two-time Parade All-America (2002 and 2003).

Quinn resides in Ft. Montgomery, N.Y.
