Jorden Scott enters his 13th year as Head Coach of the Manhattan Men's Soccer team in 2025.

Scott was named as the eighth coach in in the history of the program after spending the previous three seasons as an assistant (2010-2012) under Ashley Hammond. Overall, Scott possesses over 16 years of coaching and playing experience.

In 2024, Manhattan with a .500 or better record in league play for the fourth consecutive season and eighth under Scott’s leadership. The Jaspers qualified for the MAAC Championship for the fourth straight season and were defeated in the Quarterfinals round by No. 3 Siena.

The Jaspers received five All-MAAC selections in 2025, led by Ziv Dahan’s All-MAAC First Team bid. Sebastiano Musu, Nassim Akki and Henry Hamilton all earned All-MAAC Second Team honors, while Ayoub Boumelala was selected to the Third Team for the second straight year.

In 2023, Scott coached Manhattan to a 6-3-1 record in MAAC play which saw the Jaspers advance all the way to the MAAC Semifinals. It marked the sixth time Scott's Jaspers have reeled off a .500 or better record against conference foes. The run to the semifinals represented the third berth to the penultimate round under Scott, including the second straight appearance. 

During the 2022 campaign, Scott guided the Jaspers to an 8-5-6 mark and 5-1-4 record in MAAC play as Manhattan advanced to the semifinals. Freshman center back Nassim Akki was named the 2022 MAAC Defensive Player of the Year.

In 2021, the Jaspers showed remarkable poise and chemistry in winning four of five games late to qualify for the MAAC Tournament, with the postseason-clinching win being a 2-0 victory at Rider in the regular season finale. The growth of the Manhattan program under Scott was also evidenced by the Jaspers' 1-0 win over Fordham which represented their third straight victory over the Rams. The Battle of the Bronx triumph came in addition to the 1-0 win in 2018 and a 2-1 overtime win in 2019 versus Fordham. The fashion in which Manhattan knocked off their crosstown rivals was impressive, too — first a game-winning header goal in the 90th minute by Adrien Awana in 2018, then a game-ending finish in overtime by Noah Amissah in 2019, and lastly an Oswald Annang goal in the 59th minute which proved to be the difference in 2021. Those games are a telltale sign of the growth of the program over the course of Scott's tenure.

From 2017-2021, Manhattan won 35 games on Scott's watch.

In 2018, Manhattan achieved a program-record 12 wins, including its highest non-conference winning percentage at .875. During that impressive run, the Kelly Green and White recorded its first win over a ranked opponent in program history (No. 25 Fordham). College Soccer News ranked Manhattan 30th in the nation for the week ending with September 23 after the win over Fordham. The United Soccer Coaches also had Manhattan in the East Region Poll Top 10 for seven weeks during the year, reaching as high as third. In addition, Manhattan received votes in the USC Top 25 National Poll for the first time in program history. The Jaspers defense recorded a program-best nine shutouts while only allowing a program-low 12 goals on the season.

In 2019, Adrien Awana became the first Manhattan player in over 20 years to earn back-to-back All-MAAC First Team honors. Additionally, Berti Fourrier collected Second Team honors for the second-straight season under Scott's watch. 

Scott guided the Jaspers to its second-most wins in program history in 2017, going 9-8-1 (6-3-1 MAAC). The team's six MAAC wins and 19 conference points are tied with the 2023 campaign for Scott’s best years in those respective categories. In 2017, Manhattan also advanced to the postseason MAAC Championship for the first time since 2015 and hosted its first-ever postseason match at Gaelic Park.

In that 2017 campaign, the Jaspers set then-program records for the fewest goals allowed (16) and tied the high mark with eight shutouts. Gohier became the program's first MAAC Goalkeeper of the Year and was named to the All-MAAC First Team. In addition, Lucas Da Silva and Luke Greaves were selected to the All-MAAC Second Team.

In 2016, Ryan Shields was named to the MAAC All-Rookie Team after tying the team lead in goals with two. 

During the 2015 season, Abraham Bartoah became Scott's first-ever All-MAAC First Team selection as the Jaspers defeated Saint Peter's in the opening round of the MAAC Championship before dropping a one-goal heartbreaker to MAAC Regular Season Champion Monmouth.

In 2014, Amos repeated on the All-MAAC Second Team and was joined by Bartoah following his first season in Riverdale.

In 2013, his first season at the helm, Scott was named MAAC Coach of the Year. He led the Jaspers to a 5-3-2 conference record, and a top-four seed in the MAAC Championship for just the fifth time in program history as the Jaspers reached the postseason under the four-team format for the first time since 2001. The five MAAC victories also tied the program record at the time while the 17 conference points set a then-school record.

Manhattan dropped a heartbreaker in the semifinals to Monmouth via penalty kicks. Tommy Amos earned All-MAAC Second Team honors during the regular season while Daniel Festa and Jake Scavetta earned MAAC All-Tournament Team honors. Additionally, Andrew Melitsanopoulos notched a spot on the MAAC All-Rookie Team.

Scott has served as the Academy Director at Sports Domain Academy in Montclair, New Jersey and has coached within the organization since 2003. In this role, he trains players 18 years and under across the tri-state region. During his tenure at Sports Domain Academy, several of Scott's teams have earned state and national recognition. He coaches the Montclair Gauchos (U16 boys) who, in 2012, reached the U.S. Youth National Championships in Phoenix, after winning the New Jersey State Cup and capturing the Region 1 title with a dramatic 4-3 overtime win against Olney Maryland.

From 2004 to 2008, Scott worked as the Football for Life Program Director in the towns of Maun and Kasane in Botswana where he trained over 300 children ages 7 to 15 living in poverty.
