Mark Waterman joined Brown as the Zisson Family Assistant Coaching Chair in 2024. Waterman came to College Hill after serving in assistant and associate head coaching roles at Tufts and Holy Cross, as well as a head coach at the club level.
In his latest stop before Brown, Waterman served as the Associate Head Coach at Tufts University for four seasons from 2020-2023. While leading recruiting efforts on a national level, he helped lead the Jumbos to the 2021 NESCAC title, and three NCAA Division III Tournament appearances, including an Elite Eight berth in 2021 and a Sweet 16 appearance in 2023. The four-year stretch was his second stint with Tufts after previously serving as an assistant coach during the 2015 and 2016 seasons. The 2016 season was especially significant for Waterman as he and his fellow coaches were selected as the NCAA DIII National Staff of the Year after Tufts won the Division III national title.
Between his two stints at Tufts, Waterman spent two seasons on staff at Holy Cross, guiding the Crusaders to the Patriot League Tournament final in 2017.
He also served as a head coach for the Boston Bolts from 2018-2023, piloting the ECNL squad to the 2019 US Club Soccer Massachusetts state championship title, a second-place finish in the ECNL Northeast Division and an ENPL Nationals qualification.
As a collegiate student-athlete, Waterman was a three-time all-conference selection at Denison University in Ohio, and served as team captain during his senior season in 2014.
