About Coaches

Coaches Through the Years

From the early years, over one hundred years ago, to the over thirty coaches currently serving out Section V players, there is a long history of excellence and service.

One this page we have links to all sorts of coaching information. Some point to historical stories on our Lax Links site. A number of coaches have served over fifteen seasons. At this point three coaches won over three games. Many have earned numerous awards. Many have been inducted into the Rochester Chapter of USA Lacrosse Hall of Fame and a few are enshrined in the National Hall of Fame. Many coaches enjoyed playing on Section V high school teams and some even have player pages.
