Sean Teepen joined the University of Louisville men's soccer program as an assistant coach in July of 2022.
The 2023 season saw the Cardinals finish 12-6-3, their highest win total since 2017.

Three Cardinals earned All-ACC honors, while Damien Barker John, Josh Jones and Gage Guerra were each selected in the MLS SuperDraft.
In his first season with the Cardinals, Louisville put together a 9-6-3 overall record with a 4-3-1 tally in ACC play. The Cardinals earned an at-large bid and a host spot in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament. The Cardinals scored a pair of top-10 victories during the 2022 season, opening up the fall with a 3-1 win over No. 10 Saint Louis and later adding a 2-1 triumph against No. 8 Pitt. Sander Roed and Aboubacar Camara earned All-ACC honors for the second consecutive season.
Teepen came to Louisville after four seasons on staff at Bowling Green State University. After serving as an assistant coach for the Falcons in the 2018 and 2019 seasons, Teepen was promoted to associate head coach in December of 2019.

His duties at BGSU included coaching the goalkeepers and serving as the Falcons' recruiting coordinator. Bowling Green posted a 37-25-9 overall record during his four seasons, including consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances the last two years.

Teepen was a four-year starter in goal at Charleston, leading the Golden Eagles to three NCAA tournament appearances, including a trip to the Elite Eight in 2009 and Sweet 16 in 2010.
