I’ve never been so disappointed to see a coach be a division one lacrosse coach. Not only does his lacrosse IQ lack in every category possible, but he is the worst leader for anyone dedicated to a sport. He managed to turn a team that made the top four in the conference to a team that barely won one game within 9 months of coaching them. He allowed a senior captain to attack another senior physically only resulting in half a game suspension. He has managed to win 7 total games in 5 years as a head coach, he allows the team to disrespect him and the captains to the point the team couldn’t do anything but laugh after, and he did nothing to stop a fan from tearing down his own playing verbally for more then a quarter of the game. The only reason the fan was removed from the field is because parents started chanting to get him out. It is even more embarrassing for Longwood University because all of these issues have been addressed by letters, interviews, and meetings with the athletic director at the conclusion of the season and they did absolutely nothing! The only reason some of these girls are returning is because they academically are stuck, many still considering quitting and just finishing their academic year. It’s heart shattering to see so many young women loose their love, passion, and drive for a sport they worked for since they were ten just for a small man to rip it away from them at the end of their career. If you are committed or considering committing to a team he is coaching for I suggest u take any other option at your finger tips. #saveyourself
