Mr. Brendan Taylor, Head Coach
I am the proud father of a 6 year old girl, Alice, with another one on the way, due in August. I have been happily married to Tricia Taylor for 15 years. She runs Stef's Pizzeria and Restaurant in Chesterfield. I have been teaching and coaching for 21 years. In the fall I completed my 5th season as head coach of the boys program and am now headed into my 2nd season in charge of the girls program. Prior to coming to Clayton I coached at Marquette High School at various levels and trained goalies. I teach social studies at Marquette High School and have done so since 2007. Prior to my years at Marquette I was a Teach For America Corp member serving in the Mississippi Delta and the city of St. Louis. I strongly believe in the experiences high school athletics can provide for student-athletes. I am committed to creating a program where student-athletes can challenge themselves and maximize their potential in order to prepare themselves for life's challenges

Mr. Daniel Dorsey, Assistant Coach
Identified as a “young Pele” by the age of 6, Coach Dorsey was recruited by and signed with FC Barcelona in 1977, where he trained for the next 8 years ;)
Actually, played CYC soccer at St. Jerome in North County. As a kindergartner, once substituted himself off the field when the coach wasn’t looking . . . presumably for a snack.
Coach Dorsey was introduced to the game by his dad, who was his first coach. He was cut in high school which, while painful at the time, was a great learning experience. Former Greyhound Head Coach Tom Redmond took a chance on him as a walk-on at UMSL, where Coach Dorsey was voted the Most Improved Player during his freshman season. He began coaching JV boys and Freshman girls in 1998 at Lindbergh, where he coached a variety of levels for both programs for 20 years. He joined the CHS boys’ program in the fall of 2020 and the CHS girls’ program in the spring of 2021, each as an assistant. Coach Dorsey has been a mathematics teacher at CHS since the fall of 2019.
Coach Dorsey is very grateful to all of his teachers and coaches from grade school through college, as well as the men and women he had the pleasure to coach alongside at Lindbergh and now at CHS. He is also grateful for the many students who tried out and joined the high school teams he’s been lucky enough to coach. He is extremely grateful and blessed to have the love and support of his wife Angie, and their children.
