SOMEBODY FINALLY HIRED MIKE DALY AS A D-1 MEN'S LACROSSE COACH
— Ryan McDonnell (@RyanMcD29) July 1, 2016
As BOSS of the Tufts Jumbos, Daly won 3 national titles (2010, 2014, & 2015) and was a Salisbury heartbreaker away from winning his 4th (and 3rd in a row) this year. His 2010 title was Tufts first-ever NCAA team title and his prolific offense at Tufts was absolutely no joke. Daly was 244-83 at Tufts, made nine NCAA Tournament appearances, and won seven NESCAC titles.
Brown's Director of Athletics Jack Hayes, was very happy to drop the news today. In the press release Hayes stated that:
"Mike Daly is a terrific coach, has a proven track record of success and is the architect of the offense that has brought Brown so much success over the last two years. He has experience recruiting quality student-athletes who excel equally on the field and in the classroom."
BOSS Daly was very happy as well and excited to get started:
"I want to thank Brown President Christina Paxson and Athletic Director Jack Hayes for the opportunity to coach and mentor at one of the leading institutions in the country. Brown features one of the nation's premier lacrosse programs with a long tradition of success, and I'm honored to be taking over the program."
