Dylan Perdue took over as the head men's soccer coach on August 1, 2023

2023 saw the Mustangs go 5-9-5 in Perdue's first season at the helm, earning the #5 seed in the AMC Tournament. Jasper Gadellaa and Daniel Pinkney both earned spots on the AMC's first-team while Hugh McAuley and Joe McElhinney both earned honorable mention selections with McElhinney also earning a spot on the All-Tournament team. Eight Mustangs also earned All-Academic team recognition with Gadellaa, McElhinney and Ethan Urban earning NAIA Daktronics Scholar Athlete recognition.            

Perdue is a CBC alum and played goalkeeper for three seasons. He led the reserve team and coached goalkeepers last season, helping Jasper Gadellaa become the most-played keeper in the program's history for a single season. He has also played for both the Little Rock Rangers and Arkansas Wolves and has coached the Rangers in an assistant capacity for the past two seasons. He was previously a volunteer assistant coach at Maumelle and has coached at Real Arkansas. "I am thankful to President (Terry) Kimbrow and Coach Middleton for providing me with the opportunity to guide this program," said Perdue. "I'd also like to thank Coach Gordon for mentoring me, as well as propelling this team in the right direction for the past few seasons. It is my hope and intention to continue that progress. I feel confident that my coaching experience with the (Little Rock) Rangers USL2 team during the past year has provided me with qualities and abilities to lead this team in continued growth on and off the pitch.
