About Jonathan
Dear Students and Parents,
I am excited to share my passion for lacrosse with you and to help each player reach their full potential. With 7+ years of year-round coaching experience at the U19 and under levels, I bring a wealth of knowledge and a deep understanding of the game to our training sessions.
As a 22-year Air Force veteran, I have had the honor of training and developing potential special operations candidates, preparing them for the rigorous demands of their careers. This experience has instilled in me a dedication to discipline, resilience, and excellence—qualities that I bring to my coaching. My background as an explosives expert further underscores my attention to detail and commitment to safety.
Moreover, I am proud to say that my two daughters have played NCAA lacrosse in college, and their journeys have given me firsthand insight into the dedication and hard work required to excel at higher levels of the sport.
My coaching philosophy is rooted in professionalism, respect, and a personalized approach to each player’s development. You can expect structured, engaging practices that not only build fundamental skills but also foster teamwork, mental toughness, and a love for the game.
