Who is Caleb Sewell?

A native of Hendersonville, Tennessee, Sewell’s successful tenure at Memphis 901 FC solidified his reputation as a top executive.

His leadership helped Memphis achieve notable success, including a second-place finish in the Eastern Conference in his first season, as well as top-four finishes in 2023 and 2024.

Sewell’s success comes from his own distinguished playing career.

He also served as a player-coach for Toronto FC II in 2021 before retiring from professional play.
