Michael C. Conway is an American football coach. He was the head football coach for Olivet Nazarene University from 1996 to 1999 and in 2023, and North Park University in Chicago, Illinois from 2013 to 2018. In the fourth game his first season at North Park, in 2013, he led his team to victory in a game against Carthage. This win ended a 13-year, 89-game losing streak in College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin (CCIW) play.[1] In 2002, Conway was announced as the head coach of the Southwestern Moundbuilders in Winfield, Kansas to replace head coach Monty Lewis.[2] However, he never coached a game for the school.[3]
