I became the head coach for Saugerties Lacrosse in August of 2018 when Coach Slate asked me to meet with AD Dom Zarrella. I had some very meaningful conversations with both Coach Slate and Coach Zarrella that has led me here, to the start of my 3rd Season for Saugerties. We all know last year our season only lasted one week and kids, parents, and coaches alike had to face many challenges, hardships and losses. Coach Slate passed on just before the start of the new year and just before the start of our 2020 season. I am committed to making the most out of what ever season we get this year, for the players, for the parents, and most importantly, 4CS! Prior to Coaching at Saugerties Varsity Lacrosse I, Head Coached at Rhinebeck HS. Was Program Director of Parisi Speed School in Kingston. Played Lacrosse and earned a degree in Sports Science at Tusculum College Played Lacrosse and earned a degree in Physical Education at HVCC and was Captain of the Defense for Wappingers Lacrosse in high school.
