Gina Brewer enters her second season as CSUN head women's soccer coach in 2025-26. Brewer is the seventh head coach in Matador history.
In her first year on the sidelines, Brewer helped lead CSUN to a four-win improvement and to a seventh-place finish in the Big West standings after the team was predicted to finish last by the conference's head coaches. The Matadors played for a postseason spot until the final day of the regular season, ultimately finishing 3-4-3 in Big West play. CSUN would record their most overall wins and conference wins since 2019. Brewer also helped mentor a total of five first-time All-Big West honorees.
Brewer joined CSUN after spending the 2023 season as an assistant coach at UCLA. In her one season with the Bruins, Brewer helped guide UCLA to the Pac-12 Championship and a 16-2-1 record.
Brewer was a volunteer assistant coach at Santa Clara in 2022, helping guide the Broncos to the NCAA second round. She was also on staff in 2021 as a video analyst for the NCAA semifinalist Broncos. During her time with Santa Clara, the Broncos won back-to-back West Coast Conference championships.
Prior to her time at Santa Clara, she spent a year and a half as an assistant coach at Loyola Marymount.
From 2011-19, she was the head coach at Hawaii Pacific University, where she served as the longest-tenured coach in program history. Brewer coached the Sharks to a 71-67-20 record in her nine seasons, highlighted by a pair of double-digit win campaigns. Over her time as head coach of Hawaii Pacific, the Sharks had 26 all-conference selections as well as a Player of the Year honoree and two all-region players.
Brewer also had coaching stints at the University of Hawai'i (2008-10) and Utah State (2006-07) and was a graduate assistant at the University of Idaho from 2003-05.
Brewer played collegiately at the University of Washington from 1998-2001, helping lead the Huskies to a Pac-10 Championship and NCAA quarterfinal appearance in 2000. Her Husky teams played in the NCAA Tournament three times in her career.
A Seattle native, Brewer earned her Bachelor of Arts in sociology with a minor in communications from the University of Washington in 2002. She also received a Master of Education in physical education and health from the University of Idaho in 2005.
Brewer is currently the Olympic Development Program "ODP" West Region Girls Technical Advisor, as well as a U.S. Soccer Coach Educator for the National B and C coaching licenses. She is also a U.S. Soccer Youth National Team Scout and currently holds her USSF "A" Coaching License.
