George Fotopoulos

George Fotopoulos is an American soccer coach. He was formerly the head coach of the Louisiana State University (LSU) women's soccer team. Fotopoulos went 52-39-14 in five years at LSU, posting a 12-28-6 record in the Southeastern Conference (SEC). He began his career at LSU in 2000 after two years as head coach at his alma mater, the University of Tampa.

In 2000, he led his team to a 15-6 overall with a 5-4 mark in the SEC, good for second place in the SEC West. The team advanced to the SEC Tournament but was knocked out in the first round in a 2-0 loss to Kentucky. In 2001 the team finished sixth in the SEC West with a 7-8-3 overall record (1-6-2 in the SEC). In 2002, Fotopoulos had his best season as head coach of the Lady Tigers as his team went 12-5-3 and 2-3-3 in the SEC, good for another bid in the conference tournament. The team upset No. 8 Auburn in the first round of the tournament before losing to Florida 2-0 in the second round. In 2003, the team posted its third winning season in four years when it went 10-9-1 and 2-7 in the SEC West, but the team failed to reach the SEC Tournament.

Danielle Fotopoulos joined her husband as co-head coach before the 2004 season after serving as a volunteer to the coaching staff in 2003. As a player at the University of Florida, she set the NCAA record for points (284) and goals (118) for both men and women.

After finishing 8-11-1 (2-8-1 in the SEC) in 2004, Fotopoulos and his wife resigned on November 4, 2004. They were succeeded by Brian Lee.

Currently, both George and Danielle Fotopoulos coach soccer at Hillsborough County United Soccer in Tampa, Florida.
