Brian Quinn (soccer)

Brian Quinn (born 24 May 1960) is a Northern Irish-American soccer coach and former player who is the head coach of the San Diego Toreros men's soccer team at the University of San Diego (USD).

In 1981, Quinn moved to the US to join the Los Angeles Aztecs of the North American Soccer League.
