Meredith Flaherty (née McCullen) is an American soccer coach and former player.

Early life

Born Meredith McCullen, she played soccer at Vista High School in California.

College career

Flaherty began her collegiate career at Clemson, starting 16 of 18 matches for the Tigers. After graduating from Clemson, Flaherty played one final season of NCAA soccer at Florida. Flaherty had four saves in a 7–2 victory over Maryland.

In a markedly defensive game in the 1998 NCAA women's semifinal against Santa Clara, Flaherty recorded seven saves. The Gators defeated Santa Clara 1–0, snapping the Broncos' streak of 16 consecutive shutouts to set up a national championship match against North Carolina. Flaherty and the Gators then won the 1998 NCAA championship game, defeating North Carolina, 1–0. In the game, Flaherty saved ten shots from going in. On the win, she stated, "We knew going in we wanted to play North Carolina. We were kind of hoping for it. If you're going to be national champions, you have to beat the national champions."
