Jason Lowe was named the head coach of the Boston College women's soccer team on Jan. 9, 2019.

A rising star in the women's soccer coaching profession, Lowe has served on the coaching staff at Wake Forest since 2014, including the previous two seasons as the program's associate head coach. Lowe started as an assistant coach for the Wake Forest women's soccer program in 2014 and was promoted to associate head coach prior to the 2017 season.

His promotion was immediately followed by back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances, as the Demon Deacons reached the round of 32 in 2017, and upset No. 2 seed West Virginia en route to the Sweet 16 in 2018. Lowe has helped several of his student-athletes reach the professional ranks, with Maddie Huster, Ally Haran and Sarah Teegarden all drafted by or competing with NWSL teams in the last two seasons.

Lowe has made an incredible impact on the Deacon defense, as the 2017 team had one of the best defenses in the ACC. Wake Forest's 0.67 goals against average and 14 goals allowed finished third in the league and was among the best in program history. The Deacs also had 11 shutouts, the most since 2011.

Lowe was crucial in the development of keeper Lindsay Preston, who finished third in the conference with a .811 save percentage and fourth with a 0.70 goals against average her senior season en route to All-ACC honors. Also in 2017, the Deacs surrendered just 12 goals in regular-season play, their lowest goal total since before Lowe in 2011.

After joining the team in 2014, Lowe helped the Demon Deacons take a big step forward from year one to year two of his tenure, as the team's goals-against average dropped from 1.63 to 1.16, and the team allowed six fewer goals despite playing two more games.

Lowe joined the Demon Deacons after serving as an assistant coach at Alabama for five seasons, specializing in the development of the back line of the defense as well as the goalkeepers.

During his time with the Crimson Tide, Lowe also acted as the recruiting coordinator and had a large amount of success. In the last two seasons, his recruits went on to earn three SEC All-Freshman Team honors and an NSCAA All-Region selection. In addition, the 2012 recruiting class was ranked 13th nationally and was the top class in the conference that year.

Under Lowe's tutelage, former Alabama goalkeeper Justine Bernier earned six school records and was the first player in school history to earn All-SEC honors in each of her four seasons.

Prior to coming to Alabama, Lowe spent two seasons with the Emory women's soccer program as the team's goalkeeper coach. During his two campaigns with the Eagles, Lowe helped the program to an impressive 32-6-3 record that included a pair of appearances in the NCAA Division III Tournament. In 2008, Emory also shared for the University Athletic Association championship, the Eagles first conference crown since 2004.

A native of Shaker Heights, Ohio, he is a 1998 alumnus of Wake Forest and also served as a goalkeeper for the men's soccer squad from 1994-97.

In addition to receiving his bachelor's degree from Wake Forest, Lowe also earned his MBA at Wake Forest's Babcock Graduate School of Management in 2002.
