Capotosto was an assistant coach to the 1998 men’s soccer Blues and after graduation also served on the Blues women’s soccer staff in 2003. He rejoined the men’s staff in 2005, and has helped guide the team to berths in five CIS championships in eight years. He was also the head coach of the women's team in 2011, where he was honoured as the OUA East coach of the year, and resumes the dual role in the 2013 season.
