Matt Prewett grew up in Austin, Texas, and continues to call it home. A graduate of Westwood High, he played for both his High School team and the Capitals Soccer Club, then attended Rhodes College where he played 4 years of D3 College Soccer, including 2 years as a Team Captain, and earned several recognitions as both a stand-out athlete and for academics, including Team MVP his Junior and Senior seasons. After obtaining an undergrad degree in Business, he attended Rhodes for a 5th year in which he served as an Assistant Coach to the soccer team, and also earned a Masters of Science in Accounting.
In his adult life, he returned to Austin and served as Head Coach of the University of Texas at Austin’s Men’s Club Soccer Team from 2004-2018. Through this time, he earned various coaching badges, working his way up to the USSF ‘A’ National Soccer Coaching license—the highest license in US. During this time, he also created the UT Soccer Alumni Association & Endowment to benefit the Club, for which he currently serves as Chairman for fundraising purposes.
At the same time while coaching UT, Prewett joined Austin Thunder Football Club, where he has served as a Player-Manager for 20+ seasons. His teams won 6 Premier League titles in Austin Men’s Soccer Association, Austin’s largest adult amateur soccer association with over 3500 players and 140+ teams. Prewett’s involvements with AMSA extend beyond the Field, as he served in various roles in the organization over the last 20 years, including 2 four-year terms as President. He continues to volunteer with AMSA today, serving as Treasurer, along with volunteering with the Austin Soccer Foundation, which supports grassroots soccer opportunities in Central Texas.
These days, Prewett’s involvements have shifted to coaching and cheering on his 3 daughters in soccer, softball, and gymnastics, along with owning & managing both a boutique real estate brokerage and real estate investment LLC. In what little spare time they have, he enjoys spending time with his wife Adrienne, hiking, fishing, hunting, and any other recreational pursuits in the great outdoors!
