Hired in the fall of 2026, Liam Vance joined the Kenyon coaching staff from St. Olaf College where he played 3 years, and spent two years as an assistant coach. 

After his first year was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Vance played in 64 games and started 25 times for St. Olaf from 2021-23. He was part of the winningest three-year run in program history, as his teams went a combined 54-11-6 (.803) overall and 25-2-3 (.883) in MIAC play, while winning two MIAC regular-season titles, two MIAC Playoff titles, and the 2023 NCAA Division III national championship. Prior to its first national title, St. Olaf made back-to-back runs to the "Sweet 16" in 2021 and 2022.

In his two seasons as an Assistant Coach, St. Olaf achieved a total record of 35-7-7 going undefeated in conference play, winning 3 conference championships and finishing the 2025 season with a final four appearance and a Region IX Staff of the Year award.
