A Preseason Conversation With Coach Breschi • Carolina Men’s Lacrosse
Billy Bitter became
UNC’s first first-team
All-America in four
years last season.
As a freshman, James
Petracca started the
last half of the season
in goal in 2009.
Junior Chris Hunt is
expected to be one
of the top middies in
the nation in 2010.
Kevin Federico is a
key member of
UNC’s senior class.
Tar Heel head lacrosse coach Joe Breschi sat
down with associate athletic communications director Dave Lohse prior to the season to talk
about the upcoming 2010 Carolina lacrosse season.
Lohse: Coach, what are some of the points
of emphasis you and the coaching staff are addressing heading into the 2010 season?
Coach Breschi: “I think one of things we are
looking at is the special teams. We want to become a better riding team and a better clearing
team. The first half of last season, I thought we
did a nice job in those areas but the second half
of the year I thought we tailed off in our efficiency.
We also want to be better both in man up and
man down situations.
“One of the critical things we are changing is
the commitment we are making to become a
two-way midfield oriented team. That is the ultimate goal of the program moving forward.
Whether we can do it fully and do it with three
midfield lines we are going to make that attempt
which we did a little bit of in the fall.
“I would say those are the critical things – the
special teams, man up, man down, riding, clearing, being a better inbounds riding team than we
were last year and embracing a two-way midfield
concept.
“We always want to play fast. We always
want to be aggressive defensively and get the
ball on the ground because I think that is where
we are our best.
“Ultimately the switch to playing the two-way
midfielder will be the biggest change you’ll see
in UNC lacrosse.”
Lohse: Now that we are a year into your
stewardship of the program, how has the transition gone?
Coach Breschi: “I think the biggest thing
after year one is the way they’ve embraced
things. After meeting with the upperclassmen
and the captains recently, they said that this was
the best fall they’ve had here based on the fact
they were used to the system. They were more
comfortable in it which allowed them to press forward and fine tune the things we’ve implemented. We’re try to push them forward to the
next level which is to get them to understand the
intricacies of what schemes we are in, offensively and defensively.
Lohse: Can you talk a little about the additions you’ve made to the team. How have the
newcomers adapted to the Tar Heels’ style in fall
ball?
Coach Breschi: “I think all four of the freshman midfielders – you have Ian Braddish, Greg
McBride, Zander Walters and Cam Wood – are
two-way middie type guys. Three of them played
on a line in the fall although McBride was hurt
and didn’t see any action. The others played on
the third midfield line together. They had some
chemistry together which was good to see.
McBride will add significantly to that line so those
four middies will see considerable time this year.
William Scroggs is going to help at the face-off X
by being a third face-off option for us.
“Then you look at the attack and Marcus Holman has made the biggest impact there so far
and Stephen Burns is coming along and will help
us down the line.
“Defensively, “Boom” Leighton-arrah is playing a close defense role for us. We moved him
from pole to close defense in the fall because
he’s a very physical presence. Another freshman, Kieran McDonald is playing long pole.
“Ed Prevost, the transfer attackman, has a
tremendous work ethic and he will make an impact for us. He’s done a terrific job of doing extra
work outside of practice. He’s terrific off ball.
And he’s a competitor. He and Marcus (Holman)
are two terrific additions to the attack.”
Lohse: Coach, let’s talk about the team position by position, and see how things are going
to line up. We’ll start with the attack unit.
Coach Breschi: “Obviously it’s going to be
Billy Bitter at the quarterback position. Our offense runs through Billy. He knows he will be targeted every game. We’re trying to fine tune his
vision and have him see the field more. We also
don’t want him have to shoulder as much of the
offense as he did last year. We’ll need to have
the other guys help out more because the opposing players are immediately going to slide to Billy.
Obviously he’s the guy everyone is expecting a
big year from.
“We missed having Gavin Petracca in fall ball.
He was injured in the fall but it’s still his position
coming back as our vocal leader on the offensive
end of the field. He’s a great shooter and a great
field general. In essence, he was kind of our
leader of the offense last year with his outstanding organizing skills. It was fun to see improve
last year. He demanded a lot of his teammates.
He put guys in the right spots. He settled the ball
down. He’s more of the field general of the offense. While not holding the ball as much or carrying it as much as Billy, Gavin was the
quarterback of the offense in a different fashion.
“Then I’d have to go with Marcus Holman, Ed
Prevost and Thomas Wood as the next three
guys on our depth chart. As of today we are five
deep in this position and it may go in that order.
We may go with Marcus if we were to start today.
He’s very similar to Bart Wagner but doesn’t
have the experience of a Bart Wagner. He has
a better dodging ability than Bart and better
hands than Bart. I think he needs the experience. So we have those five guys forming our
top corps heading into 2010.”
Lohse: “Sounds good Coach. Now give me
a breakdown of how the midfield might stack up.”
Coach Breschi: “As of the end of the fall
you’d have had to go with Sean DeLaney, Sean
Burke, Cryder DiPietro and Jimmy Dunster on
the initial line. But Burke had a season-ending
injury in the off-season and he will now be redshirting. This fall we practiced with those four
guys on the first midfield line. I think our idea of
playing four on a line is part of the plan of playing two ends of the field for our middies. So if any
offensive-oriented middie gets stuck on the defensive end, hopefully we’ve used him as a wing
on the face-off or he’s played both ends and he’s
used to it. Having middies play both ends of the
field gives you a more effective way of building
depth. Whether we can accomplish this and it
stays that way we’ll have to wait and see.
“Our second line includes Chris Hunt, Tyler
Morton, Jeff Muscatello, who in particular had a
very good fall, and Chris Layne. Those four
played on the second line this fall. Three of
those guys were short stick defensive middies
for us last year but they also combined for four
goals and two assists out in San Francisco at our
fall ball game. The concept is to try to work those
guys into being more two-way players.
“Then the four freshmen I mentioned earlier
were on the third midfield line. We’re teaching
them defense. We’re keeping out scheme simple defensively.
“Our hope this season is to
try and pressure teams across the board which
helps jump start our offense. One of the big

things in college lacrosse is to try to
keep offensive middies on the field as
much as possible. If we develop twoway middies and therefore don’t have to
take guys off the field we can in turn
pressure teams while they are substituting.”
Lohse: With more two-way middies,
will the role of short-stick defensive midfield become more of a specialty role?
Coach Breschi: “Right now we have
two specific short stick d-middies. Our
No. 1 guy is Michael Burns and he will
also do most of the face-off work. Our
second face-off guy is probably Mark
Staines. And then William Scroggs is the
third guy. Outside of Burns, Logan
Corey is probably our top defensive
m
i
d
d
l
e
.
Those two guys are both stoppers.
Down the road we’re trying to move
away from using specific short stick
mids on defense but we feel these guys
are so strong at that position we are best
off keeping them in that role. That’s
where they will help us the most.
Lohse: Okay, Coach, give me an
idea of which people will man the pole
position and what the depth chart looks
like there.
Coach Breschi: “I’d have to say that
Sean Jackson would be the No. 1 pole
at this point if we had to play today. Milton Lyles would be No. 2. Mark Staines
would be No. 3. All of them bring something different to the game which I think
is a good thing. Jackson is big, strong
and athletic. He runs the field well. Has
a very good stick. Milton Lyles brings
speed to the game and is excellent in
claiming ground balls. Staines is another athletic guy who can face off as
well. He’ll be a little more multi purpose
than he was last year.
Lohse: Coach, I think the close defense is going to be an improved part of
our team. Can you talk about what
we’re going to see there.
Coach Breschi: “Even though Charlie McComas missed fall ball, heading
into the spring Charlie will be out there
with Ryan Flanagan and Michael Jarvis.
Jarvis would be our third starter at close
position at this point. With that being
said Jackson would probably be our
fourth guy at close D with a guy like
Kevin Piegare fighting for that spot as
well. Redshirt freshman Gray Smith had
a terrific fall. Then William Leightonarrah is being groomed to play down
there. We have a decent core group of
guys. It’s going to be critical for our
depth to come along quickly down there.
Lohse: The million dollar question
coach is how are we going to shape up
in the goal.
Coach Breschi: “It’s been interesting because both goalies who were here
in the fall played well. Anytime you’ve
come off a season where you’ve played
and you’ve got that experience you go
in with more confidence. I think what
James Petracca has shown is a tremendous amount of confidence. He’s really
worked hard to be a positive leader on
the field which has been a good thing.
He had a terrific game when we scrimmaged the Alumni.
I think Chris
Madalon, who hasn’t really played much
in his career here, is certainly an extremely capable goalie and ready to
make an impact. He’s got great size
and a terrific outlet pass. He makes
saves. I like the depth we have. It’s a
wide open situation going into the
spring. Penn State transfer Steven Rastivo is another terrific goalie. He has a
good outlet pass, has extremely quick
hands and can make saves for us. At
the end of the day for a goalie, it’s saving the ball number one, it’s outlets and
controlling the defense number two.
Lohse: How do you feel about the
depth of your team going into the season?
Coach Breschi: “I think we’re pretty
deep across the board. I think we’re
deeper than we were last year on the attack. At the midfield we’re creating
depth although it’s inexperienced. I
think we’re creating it in the style of play
we’re going to run as we move forward.
Defensively, I feel confident we can run
five guys and as many as four poles. I

think the biggest question mark for us is
consistent goalie play and the face-off X.
If we can get better wing play than we
had last year and control the ball better
after we do win face-offs it that will be an
enormous part to our success.”
Lohse: Coach I know you have a
tremendous coaching staff. Can you
talk to me a little bit about them.
Coach Breschi: “Pat Myers is the
kind of guy who is a perfectionist when it
comes to attention to detail. That’s what
makes him special. He leaves no stone
unturned. He’s learned so much in one
year with relationship building, with getting the most out of the players, with developing himself as an overall coach,
with being creative. Pat has all the tools
to become a great head coach one day.
“There is a great dynamic between
Chris Feifs and Pat. Chris has a willingness to learn and a gift dealing with different personalities. He is a great fit for
our program.
“I think the world of Brian Holman.
He has great wisdom. He has a son in
the program and that makes him great
with relationships with other the parents
in the process. He adds a different dimension to our staff. And he’s great
working with the goalies.
Lohse: Now that you are 18 months
into the job, how is it going for you personally?
Coach Breschi: “I couldn’t be happier to be back home. To give back to
the program that had such an extraordinary impact on me in such a critical part
of my life when I was 18-22 years old, I
almost can’t describe it. I had a chance
to play under Coach Scroggs and to
learn, not just how to play the game, but
also how to take responsibility and learn
accountability. To Come back to the program and give back to UNC in some
way and try to impact these kids and
their lives and make a positive impact is
a thrill. Julie and I and the girls are
thrilled to be here. I hope I will be here
a long time. It’s our home now.”

Gavin Petracca is in his

Head Coach Joe Breschi • Carolina Men’s Lacrosse
Joe Breschi’s coaching
philosophy
is
summed up in three
words • FAMILY • ACADEMICS • LACROSSE.
Now in his second year
as the head coach of
the University of North
Carolina’s historicallysuccessful lacrosse program, Breschi is well on
his way to instilling that
very philosophy at every
level of the program and its reach to alumni, student-athletes and their families.
Breschi, a 1990 University of North Carolina
alumnus and former assistant coach for the Tar
Heels, became the 12th head men's lacrosse
coach in Carolina history on June 18, 2006.
Breschi came to Chapel Hill from The Ohio State
University where he had served as the head
coach for the previous 11 seasons.
In his first year at Carolina, he led the Tar
Heels to a 12-6 overall record and a spot in the
NCAA quarterfinals. The Tar Heels won their
first game in the ACC Tournament in 13 years
and they fell just one goal shy of reaching their
first Final Four in 16 years. More importantly, 19
Tar Heels were named to the ACC Academic
Honor Roll and 10 made the Dean’s List during
the spring semester of 2009.
Breschi was an assistant coach at UNC and
Brown University for seven seasons prior to his
stint in Columbus with the Buckeyes and he has
19 seasons of collegiate coaching experience
overall entering the 2010 campaign. Breschi has
accomplished much in his life for a man 41 years
young.
"I’m thrilled Joe Breschi is our lacrosse coach
at Carolina," says Dick Baddour, athletic director
at UNC since 1997. "Joe did an outstanding job
of building a fine program at Ohio State. I was
thrilled that he has decided to accept our offer in
June 2008 to take over our program. Joe had a
tremendous playing career in Chapel Hill and it
has been great to have him back as part of our
athletic family."

Samantha
"I will always thank Dick Baddour for the
tremendous opportunity he gave me to be the
head lacrosse coach at my alma mater," says
Breschi "I made a commitment to be a Tar Heel
23 years ago coming out of Loyola High School
to now Hall of Fame coach Willie Scroggs.
“Over the last 18 months, I’ve have a chance
to give back to the University, to the alumni and
to the entire Carolina lacrosse family, all of whom
had an extraordinary impact on my life. My family had adapted to life in Chapel Hill and they love
it here. All the credit goes to my wife Julie and
my four girls for making this transition so easy."
A native of Baltimore, Md., and a 1986 alumnus of the Loyola-Blakefield School, Breschi
compiled a 92-63 overall record in his 11 years at
OSU along with a 34-18 regular-season Great
Western Lacrosse League mark. The Buckeyes
shared GWLL regular-season titles in 1999,
Page 28 • 2010 North Carolina Men’s Lacrosse Media Guide
2003 and 2008 and won the conference championship outright in 2004. The Buckeyes had
seven winning seasons in Breschi’s last eight
years and made NCAA Tournament appearances in 2003, 2004 and 2008. Taking over a
non-scholarship program in 1997, Breschi built
the OSU program from scratch. Along the way,
Ohio State had three double-figure winning seasons, going 10-3 in 1999, 12-4 in 2004 and 11-6
in 2008 when the program had its most significant wins in its history.
Immediately prior to moving to Chapel Hill, in
Breschi's 11th season at OSU, the Buckeyes enjoyed their most successful campaign . Ohio
State won its first NCAA Tournament game in
history by defeating No. 8-seeded Cornell 15-7 in
the NCAA first round on the Big Red's home field
in Ithaca, N.Y. The Buckeyes shared the GWLL
regular-season title and reached the finals of the
first-ever GWLL Tournament. Amongst the Buckeyes 11 wins in 2008 was a 14-11 triumph over
Carolina on April 12, 2008 in Baltimore. It was
Ohio State's first win in 14 tries versus the Heels.

Head Assistant Coach Pat Myers • Carolina Men’s Lacrosse
Pat Myers is now in his
second year as the head
assistant coach and the recruiting coordinator for the
men’s lacrosse program at
the University of North Carolina. Myers had a tremendous impact in his first year
on the Tar Heel staff as the
UNC offense showed vast
improvement over 2008 while his recruiting
prowess helped the Tar Heels net what is expected to be the No. 1-ranked recruiting class in
Inside Lacrosse’s rankings for the high school
senior class of 2009-10.
Myers, who also serves as Carolina’s offensive coordinator, had been the men’s lacrosse
offensive coordinator and head assistant coach
at Bucknell University for three seasons from
2006 through 2008, when was named head assistant coach and offensive coordinator for the
University of North Carolina men's lacrosse program in the summer of 2008. Tar Heel head
coach Joe Breschi rounded out his staff with the
hiring of Myers. With his hiring, Myers was designated by Breschi as the head assistant coach
on his staff and with Myers serving as the program’s recruiting coordinator.
“Pat Myers is the kind of guy who is a perfectionist when it comes to attention to detail. That’s
what makes him special. He leaves no stone unturned,” says Breschi.
“Pat’s learned so much in one year with relationship building, with getting the most out of the
players, with developing himself as an overall
coach, with being creative. Pat has all the tools
to become a great head coach one day,” adds
Breschi.
Breschi, a 1990 UNC alumnus, was named in
June 2008 as the Tar Heels' new head coach
after he spent 11 seasons as the head coach at
Ohio State. Myers, who played for Breschi at
Ohio State, joined his mentor as well as longtime UNC assistant Greg Paradine and new volunteer assistant Brian Holman on the 2009 staff.
In his initial season, Myers was a key part of
the reason the Tar Heels improved to 12-6, won
an ACC Tournament game for the first time in 13
years and came within a single goal of making
the Final Four for the first time in 16 years.
Myers led an offense which scored 12.47 goals
per game in 2009. That was the third highest
scoring average in the nation last year. UNC
ranked second in assists per game at 7.72 and
first-team All-America attackman Billy Bitter was
the nation’s fourth-ranked point producer at 3.94
per contest. UNC averaged more than 2.5 goals
more per game in 2009 than it did the previous
season.
Myers came to Chapel Hill after completing
assistant coaching stints at three other schools –
Bucknell, Cornell and his alma mater, Ohio
State. Myers was a standout lacrosse player at
OSU from 2000-03 and was recruited to be a
Buckeye by Breschi himself, who started his
tenure in Columbus in 1997.
Myers earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in
Sport and Leisure Studies in June 2003 with a
specialization in coaching and leisure management. He was a four-year Dean's List student at
Ohio State and was named a Ohio State
Scholar-Athlete. He was named to the Academic
All-Big Ten honor squad three successive years
from 2001-03.
A native of Maine, Myers has been an assistant coach on the collegiate level the past seven
seasons, every year since his graduation from
Ohio State. He was the volunteer assistant
coach at Ohio State in 2004, an assistant coach
at Cornell University in 2005 and the offensive
coordinator at Bucknell from ‘06-’08. At Bucknell,
he was the offensive coordinator, the head assistant coach, the recruiting coordinator, the
strength and conditioning supervisor and the academic monitor on the Bison staff.
In 2008, Bucknell matched its highest USILA
ranking in school history at No. 9 during the
course of the season. The Bison finished 10-5
overall and 4-2 in the Patriot League while also
reaching the championship game of the conference tournament. In 2007, Bucknell finished 114, achieved a mid-year ranking of 11th and a final
national rating of 19th. In his first year on the
Bucknell staff in 2006, Myers helped lead the
Bison to an upset of top-ranked Maryland, the
first-ever win in Bucknell history over a No. 1ranked team.
Myers coordinated an offense at Bucknell that
produced back-to-back Patriot League Rookiesof-the-Year – Joe Mele and Austin Winter – and
also aided Winter in winning All-America accolades in 2008.
Prior to his stint in Lewisburg, Pa., Myers was
an assistant coach at Cornell University in 2005
when the Big Red went 11-3 overall and 6-0 in
the Ivy League standings. The Cornell Big Red
reached the NCAA quarterfinals that season and
had its highest regular-season ranking since
1987 when the Big Red reached No. 3 in the nation. The 2005 squad was also the first Big Red
team to go undefeated in the Ivy League in 18
years. Myers assisted in coordinating an offense
that averaged 12.08 goals per game, ranking No.
3 in the nation in scoring offense.
After playing at Ohio State, Myers spent a
season on the staff there as the volunteer assistant coach. The Buckeyes went 12-4 that season, achieved a sterling record of 5-0 in the
Great Western Lacrosse League to win the
league title, earned an NCAA Tournament invitation for the first time in history and achieved the
highest ranking in Buckeye lacrosse lore at No.
6.
Myers played collegiately at OSU from 200003. He was the Great Western Lacrosse
League's Rookie-of-the-Year in 2000 and a twotime All-Great Western Lacrosse League selection in 2002 and 2003. He played in the USILA
North-South All-Star Game at the conclusion of

the 2003 campaign. In 2005, Myers was one of
120 players selected to try out for Team USA that
competed at the 2006 World Games.
Myers was selected by the Boston Cannons
of Major League Lacrosse in the supplemental
draft in 2004. He played four seasons for the
Cannons from 2004-2007.
Myers’ fiance, Lauren Bricker, teaches middle
school science at Carrington Middle School while
coaching track and basketball. She is a 2007
graduate of Bucknell where she competed in
track and cross country as a standout studentathlete for the Bison.
Carolina Men’s Lacrosse • Assistant Coaches Chris Feifs & Brian Holman
Chris Feifs, a former
player at Maryland and offensive coordinator at VMI

as a full-time assistant
coach for the University of
North Carolina's men's
lacrosse program. Feifs
took over for Greg Paradine, who left in July 2009
to become the head coach
of the newly started men's and women's lacrosse
programs at Lenoir-Rhyne University.
"I'm thrilled to welcome Chris Feifs to the Tar
Heel lacrosse family," North Carolina head coach
Joe Breschi says. "Having grown up in the state
of North Carolina, Chris has a passion for the
game and a tremendous desire to help the Tar
Heels continue to build an outstanding overall
program, both on and off the field.
"His ability to teach the game offensively, recruit stellar student-athletes and build strong relationships with the players he worked with at
VMI were critical factors in my interest in having
him join the staff,” Breschi adds. “Chris' character and leadership ability clearly fit the vision I
have for the Tar Heel lacrosse program."
In 2009, Feifs completed his second year as

officially given the title of offensive coordinator.
In 2008, the Keydets earned their first ever bid
to the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Tournament, reaching the tournament championship
game. It was the first post-season conference
tournament bid for VMI in 28 years.
"I am very excited about the opportunity to
work at the University of North Carolina and give
back to my home state,” says Feifs. “Coach
Breschi and coach (Pat) Myers were inspirational
throughout the hiring process and had me looking forward to getting involved in all aspects of
the program right from the start. I began my
tenure in Chapel Hill with great excitement and
anticipation and everything that has happened in
the first six months here has reaffirmed my feelings.”
Feifs came to Carolina with the experience of
having played in the Atlantic Coast Conference
as an undergraduate. Feifs rounded out his playing career at Maryland where he served as the
co-captain of the 2007 team.
Feifs was drafted in the 2007 Major League

In May 2007, Feifs received his bachelor's degree in criminal justice from the University of
Maryland. He posted a 3.5 grade point average
and was a three-time selection to the ACC Academic Honor Roll. Feifs played for Coach Dave

games in his career. As a senior he started 14 of
15 games for the Terps and had 15 goals and

asset in building relationships with other the parents and making them feel a big part of our program.
“Brian adds a different dimension to our staff.
And he’s great working with the goalies.”

Fetzer Field has been the home of the University of North Carolina men’s lacrosse team since the first varsity season in 1949. UNC’s all-time record at Fetzer heading into the 2010 season is 233-113-2. Large enthusiastic crowds are a staple at Fetzer for men’s and women’s lacrosse and men’s and women’s soccer
matches, all involving nationally-ranked Tar Heel teams.
in 1979 and the women’s lacrosse program in
1996. All those sports call Fetzer Field home for
their regular-season and post-season tournaments games and four all sports are annually
ranked among the Top 10 teams in the nation in
their sports.
Located in the heart of the Carolina campus
directly adjacent to Carmichael Auditorium on
South Road (N.C. State Road 54), the field was
completed in 1935 as a Works Project Administration program during the tenure of President
Franklin D. Roosevelt. The track team began
competition in Fetzer Field that season, later to
be joined by the four other sports.
The facility’s renovations two decades ago
made it one of the most beautiful all-around collegiate venues in the nation. The playing field itself was reworked and leveled, the grandstand
was refitted with new aluminum bleachers, a new
track was installed, lights were added, two convenient ticket booths were added to the front
gate and a computerized scoreboard and message center was installed. Even more recently
the facilities' concession areas have been revamped so they are more convenient for fans.
There are also plans in the works for another
complete updating of the facility in the next few
years.
The facility has been home not only to
women’s and men’s soccer NCAA and ACC
Championship events, but also numerous ACC
Outdoor Track and Field Championships, the
North Carolina High School Athletic Association
Track and Field Championships, the National
Junior Olympics, men's and women’s lacrosse
ACC Tournaments and first round, quarterfinal
and semifinal action in the NCAA tournament
play. In the summer of 1996, the facility was the
home training site for the United States Track
and Field Team as it prepared for the Summer
Olympic Games in Atlanta.

The Humble Beginnings
of a Vaunted Program
Lacrosse, a sport invented by Native
Americans and played long before European settlers first visited the shores of
North America, was first introduced at
the University of North Carolina in 1937
on a club sport basis.
The first Carolina teams in the late
1930s used the football team’s discarded helmets and cleats while team
members bought their own gloves and
sticks. The team played its home
games on a field across the street from
Woollen Gymnasium.
In those days, Carolina played in
what was called the Dixie Lacrosse
League with fellow conference members Duke, Virginia, Washington & Lee,
Loyola College of Maryland and the
Washington Lacrosse Club. The initial
Carolina teams of the late 1930s were
coached by Albert C. Cornsweet, a
1929 graduate of Brown University.
Most of the players on those early
lacrosse teams worked part-time jobs in
order to stay in school. It was the heart
of the Great Depression and most college students needed to supplement
their incomes. There were some scholarship football players who competed in
the sport as well. Rumor has it that Carolina football coach Ray Wolf made his
players compete in lacrosse so they’d
learn how to run. Wolf had an appreciation of the sport and wanted to use it to
his advantage by helping keep his players in shape during the football off-season, knowing lacrosse players
competed in a sport where participants
ran and ran and then ran some more.
In the late 1940s, Bill Darden was
hired by the athletic department as a
member of the business office staff and
he also began to coach the lacrosse
team at UNC in his extra time. Varsity
status was officially awarded by the athletic department after a period of time
and monogram awards were first
granted beginning with the 1949 team,
officially making it Carolina’s initial varsity unit.
The school was admitted as a member of the U.S. Intercollegiate Lacrosse
Association (USILA) in 1950 and has
remained a member since that time.
The 1951 team featured the program's
first All-America player. Nick Sowell
was named the first-team All-America
goalie that year by the USILA.
After co-soccer and lacrosse coach
Alan Moore left Chapel Hill following the
1953 campaign, the 1954 squad was
coached by George Good, a captain in
the U.S. Marine Corps stationed in
Chapel Hill as part of the Naval ROTC
program. The 1954 team posted a disappointing 0-6 mark. After just a sixyear period from 1949-54, the team’s
status as a varsity sport at Carolina
came to an end. The athletic department at that time began to focus on
other sports as recruiting high-level in-
state talent was a major issue in trying
to compete with league foes. For a
decade the men's lacrosse program at
the University would be relegated to a
different existence. A club team existed
and played outside competition but was
no longer recognized by the athletic department as a varsity program. By no
means, however, was lacrosse permanently vanquished to the scrap heap.
Permanent Varsity Status Granted to
Lacrosse in 1964
Lacrosse was resurrected at Carolina in 1964 as a varsity program
under the leadership of athletic director
Chuck Erickson. Erickson wanted to
add a sport to improve Carolina’s standing in the Carmichael Cup, the annual
all-sports trophy in the ACC at that time.
Maryland
was
dominating
the
Carmichael Cup standings at the time
and Erickson was determined to give
Carolina a better chance to win the
award. Even if Erickson’s initial intention was to improve UNC’s Carmichael
Cup standing, which it did, the move
proved brilliant at a more important level
as within 17 years the Heels became a
national championship team.
The UNC program competed on the
varsity level without awarding athletic
scholarships for 10 years. Carolina upgraded the program with the awarding
of scholarships after the hiring of head
coach Paul Doty during the 1973-74
school year. The Tar Heels also transitioned from an NCAA small college program (the equivalent of what is now the
Division II and III levels combined) to
NCAA Division I status in 1974 with the
awarding of scholarships. Almost immediately the Tar Heels were competitive
with the top teams in the nation.
Despite its rather brief history on
campus in comparison to other UNC
sports which date back to the early
decades of the 20th century or even the
late decades of the 19th century, North
Carolina lacrosse has been something
very special in its time on campus from
1949-54 and 1964 to the present.
Since 1949 the all-time Tar Heel
record stands at 396-254-2. Tar Heel
teams have won NCAA Division I national championships four times, earning crowns in 1981, 1982, 1986 and
1991. Carolina teams have also captured 11 Atlantic Coast Conference
championships—all in a period spanning just 16 seasons from 1981-96.
The championships were won in 1981,
1982, 1985, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991,
1992, 1993, 1994 and 1996.
The 1981 and 1982 teams won 26
games in succession, recording one of
the longest winning steaks in collegiate
lacrosse history. Twenty-four times
since first qualifying in 1976, the Tar
Heels have competed in the NCAA Division I Men’s Lacrosse Championship.
Only five schools (Johns Hopkins,
Maryland, Virginia, Syracuse and Navy)
have played in the NCAA Division I

Men’s Lacrosse Tournament more often
than Carolina has.
Tremendous growth in the program
occurred beginning in the late 1960s
after the sport gained a foothold in
Chapel Hill. After a pair of losing seasons in 1966 and 1967, Jim Bischoff,
whose team was winless in 1967,
coached the Tar Heels to a much improved 7-4 mark in 1968. In addition,
Bischoff’s 1968 team was the first Tar
Heel squad to earn a national ranking
from the USILA at 25th in the final poll.
Mueller Tutors the Likes
of Kramer and Peterson
In 1969, Fred Mueller, a long-time
professor in UNC’s Department of Exercise and Sports Science, began a
successful four-year run as UNC’s head
coach. The 1970 Tar Heels ranked as
Mueller’s best team as they finished
seventh in the country in the USILA poll
with a 9-2 record and won the South Atlantic Conference championship. That
team would likely have been the first
UNC squad to earn an NCAA Tournament bid but the first championship
tournament sponsored by the NCAA
came a year later in 1971.
Among Mueller’s greatest players
was Peter Kramer, who won the
C.Markland Kelly, Jr. Memorial Cup as
the nation’s outstanding goalkeeper in
1969. Attackman Harper Peterson
copped honors as a first-team All-America three times in his career and Kramer
was a three-time honoree as well.
Tar Heel head fencing coach Ron
Miller ended up with double head
coaching duties while taking over the
lacrosse coaching reins on an interim
basis for one season in 1973. Miller led
the team to a 12-5 record in 1973.
Those 12 wins stood as Carolina’s
school record for victories in a season
until the mark was broken by the 1982
national championship squad when that
team finished with a 14-0 ledger. The
Tar Heels also set a school record in
1973 for regular-season games played
in a season with 17 contests on the
docket.
Carolina lacrosse entered a new era
in 1974 when the program hired Paul
Doty as the first full-time head coach in
school history. That same year, the
team was elevated to scholarship status with the first athletic grants-in-aid in
the sport being awarded during the
1974 season.
Doty led UNC to national Top 10
rankings in both 1976 and 1977 and to
UNC’s first two NCAA Division I Tournament appearances those same two
seasons. Another program milestone
achieved under Doty’s tutelage was
Carolina’s 13-10 victory over Virginia
during the 1976 season. It marked the
first time Carolina had ever defeated either Maryland or Virginia as a varsity
team, the two schools which had dominated ACC lacrosse up to that point in
time. UNC’s first win over Maryland

would not come until 1981, however.
An Era of Excellence under Willie Scroggs
In 1978, UNC turned to the hotbed of college
lacrosse, Johns Hopkins University, and hired
the Blue Jays’ top assistant coach, Willie
Scroggs, as the Tar Heels’ new head coach. It
was a move that bore fruit for a dozen years.
Scroggs retired from coaching at the end of the
1990 season to become a senior associate athletic director at UNC, ending a brief but brilliant
coaching tenure.
The initial decision to pursue Scroggs was
made by Tar Heel athletic director Bill Cobey
whose philosophy was that a person needed to
go to the best programs in the sport and recruit
a top assistant coach in order to build a winning
program.
Tar Heel teams were 120-37 during the
Scroggs era and were invited to the NCAA Tournament 11 straight seasons from 1980 through
1990. In nine of Scroggs’ 12 years, UNC made
the NCAA Tournament semifinal round and the
1981, 1982 and 1986 squads won the NCAA Division I championship. The Tar Heels were 17-8
in NCAA post-season play during his tenure.
Scroggs’ teams won ACC titles in 1981, 1982,
1985, 1988, 1989 and 1990. In addition, the
1982 team finished the season ranked No. 1 in
the nation in the final USILA poll.
When Scroggs announced his retirement immediately after Carolina’s NCAA semifinal loss
to Syracuse in 1990, the University turned to
Dave Klarmann, who had been the top assistant
to Scroggs for 11 seasons. The move paid off in
instantaneous results. In Klarmann’s first season at the helm of the Tar Heels, he led the team
to a 16-0 record and the 1991 NCAA and ACC
championships. That team also finished first in
the USILA poll for only the second time in school
history.
After an ACC championship and an appearance in the NCAA semifinals in 1992, the Tar
Heels had another banner season the following
year. In 1993, the Tar Heels again finished first
in the USILA national coaches’ poll, marking the
second such finish in Klarmann’s coaching
tenure and the third in the history of Tar Heel
lacrosse. Carolina also advanced to the NCAA
championship game for the fifth time in history in
1993, dropping a 13-12 decision to Syracuse on
a fast-break goal by the Orangemen in the final
seconds of play. Playing with Scroggs’ last class
of recruits as members of the senior class in
1994, UNC won its seventh straight ACC crown.
Carolina won the ACC title again in 1996, the
last time the Tar Heels have done so as the Tar
Heels routed Duke in the semifinals and upset
eventual NCAA finalist Virginia to claim the
crown behind a brilliant goalkeeping performance by Brooks Brown.
Klarmann resigned his coaching position following the 2000 season after leading Carolina
to five ACC championships in his tenure. In his
last game as the Tar Heel head coach in 2000
he earned his 100th career victory as the Tar
Heels defeated Lehigh.
Carolina athletic director Dick Baddour then
employed the same plan used by Cobey in 1978
and he went to lacrosse power Johns Hopkins to
find the new head coach for the Heels, this time
hiring the Blue Jays’ two-year head coach, John
Haus, to lead Carolina into the new millennium.
The hire of Haus bore fruit as the Carolina pro-
gram returned to the NCAA Tournament in 2004
for the first time since 1998, winning its first
NCAA game since 1993 in the process. Carolina again played in the NCAA Tournament in
2007, reaching the NCAA quarterfinal round for
a second time in four seasons. The Tar Heels
reached the NCAA Tournament again in 2008.
At the conclusion of the ‘08 season, Haus announced his resignation to become the director
of lacrosse and head men’s lacrosse coach at
Lebanon Valley College in Annville, Pa. Baddour then hired Ohio State coach Joe Breschi, a
1990 UNC alumnus to lead the Tar Heel program. In Breschi’s first season at the helm, the
Tar Heels reached the NCAA quarterfinal round,
won 12 games for the first time since 1996 and
won an ACC Tournament game for the first time
in 13 years.
Stellar Play in the NCAA Tournament
In winning four NCAA championships since
1981, Carolina teams have been involved in
some of the most exciting games in the tournament’s 39-year history.
In 1981, UNC went through the regular season unbeaten and it was ranked No. 2 in the nation behind three-time defending national
champion Johns Hopkins entering the tournament. The Tar Heels recorded lopsided wins
over Syracuse and Navy in the first two rounds
of the tournament before meeting the unbeaten
Blue Jays in the national championship game at
Princeton’s Palmer Stadium. Before a crowd of
13,943, UNC scored six straight goals in the
second half to overcome a three-goal Johns
Hopkins advantage as the Heels eventually triumphed by a 14-13 margin.
In 1982, the Tar Heels swept through the regular season unscathed again. In the NCAA
Tournament, UNC routed Navy and Cornell, setting up a championship game rematch with
Johns Hopkins. In a game dominated by the
two teams’ defenses, UNC beat the Blue Jays
7-5 behind five goals by junior attackman David
Wingate and brilliant goalkeeping by Tom Sears
who was the choice as that year’s national
player of the year.
Carolina’s third NCAA championship came in
1986 and it was the most unexpected of the
quartet of crowns that have been won by UNC.
The Tar Heels were seeded fifth going into the
tournament. No team seeded lower than fourth
had ever made the championship game prior to
the 1986 season and none seeded lower than
third had ever won the title. That Carolina team
remains, 24 years later, the lowest seeded team
to capture the NCAA crown.
Ironically, in winning the national championship, the Tar Heels avenged all three of their
regular-season losses in the exact same order
in which they had lost to those teams earlier in
the season. After a 12-10 quarterfinal win at
Maryland, UNC headed to the first-ever NCAA
men’s lacrosse Final Four, an institution now
embedded in the culture of the sport every Memorial Day weekend. At Newark, Del., Carolina
was well prepared for the semifinals and it
avenged a 16-4 regular-season loss to two-time
defending NCAA champion Johns Hopkins by
beating the Blue Jays 10-9 in overtime. Carolina
won the game on senior Mike Tummillo’s goal
off a Gary Seivold assist a little over two minutes
into the extra period.

the championship contest with neither
team ever holding more than a two-goal

issue. Gary Seivold scored an unassisted goal 1:50 into the extra session
to give the title to Carolina.
Like the 1981 and 1982 teams,
1991’s national championship team finished the season unbeaten. UNC
opened NCAA Tournament play by defeating Loyola 11-9 in the quarterfinals
at Fetzer Field. Six days later, the Tar

A Bevy of All-America Selections and
USILA Award Winners
Over the past 31 seasons, UNC players have earned 137 All-America accolades and 85 All-Atlantic Coast
Conference citations.
Nine Tar Heels have been named
ACC Player of the Year — attackman
Michael Burnett in 1981, goalkeeper
Tom Sears in 1982, defenseman Randy
Cox in 1984, attackman Mac Ford in
1985, defenseman Graham Harden in
1991, defenseman Alex Martin in 1992,
midfielder Ryan Wade in both 1993 and
1994 and midfielder Jason Wade in
1996.
Scroggs was tapped as ACC Coachof the Year in 1988 and Klarmann won
the same honor in 1991, 1993, 1994
and 1996. In 1989, midfielder Jim
Buczek was named as the ACC Rookieof the Year. Attackman Jeff Sonke won
the same award in 1998. Seven ACC
Tournament Most Valuable Players
have been Tar Heels — attackman
Michael Thomas in 1989, defenseman
Joe Breschi in 1990, attackman Dennis
Goldstein in 1991, attackman John
Webster in 1992, attackman Dan Levy
in 1993, goalkeeper Rocco D’Andraia in
1994 and goalkeeper Brooks Brown in
1996.
Carolina has had at least one firstteam All-America selection in 19 of 31
seasons since 1979. In 1981, 1991 and
1993, UNC had three first-team selections and the 1984, 1985, 1992, 1996
and 2004 squads had two each. In
1982, five of the 11 players named to
the first-team All-America squad were
Tar Heels, a rather astounding feat.
Peter Kramer started Carolina's long
list of USILA award winners when he
won the C.Markland Kelly, Jr. Memorial
Cup as the nation's top goalie in 1969.
Page 36 • 2010 North Carolina Men’s Lacrosse Media Guide
In 1981 and 1982, Tom Sears won the
Kelly Award as the nation’s outstanding
goalkeeper. In 1982, he also captured
the Enners Award as the National
Player of the Year and the Brine Award
as the outstanding player in the NCAA
championship game.
A year later, in 1983, Peter Voelkel
won the McLaughlin Award as the nation’s outstanding midfielder. In 1984,
Tom Haus won the first of his three
Schmeisser Cups as the nation’s outstanding defensive player. He went on
to win the Schmeisser Cup again in
1986 and 1987. In 1986, Haus was
also tapped for the Enners Award as
National Player of the Year. Gary
Seivold’s two-goal, two-assist effort in
the 1986 NCAA championship game
win earned him the Brine Award as the
game’s Most Valuable Player.
Carolina added to that jackpot of top
awards during the 1991 season. The
USILA tapped Goldstein as the National
Player of the Year as well as the MVP
of the NCAA championship game after
scoring four goals and adding four assists in the 18-13 victory over Towson.
Graham
Harden
captured
the
Schmeisser Cup as the top defenseman in the nation and Andy Piazza became the first Tar Heel to win the Kelly
Award as the nation’s top goalie since
Sears won the honor in 1982.
In 1992, Jim Buczek won the
McLaughlin Award as the nation’s top
midfielder. A year later, the USILA honored Ryan Wade as the top midfielder
in America. Ryan Wade's younger
brother, Jason “Zach” Wade, won the
McLaughlin Award as the nation's top
midfield performer in 1996.
Scroggs was named National Coach
of the Year in 1981 by the USILA and he
was an assistant coach for the U.S.
team which won the title at the 1982
World Lacrosse Games in Baltimore.
Sears was the starting goalkeeper for
that U.S. team and was named the AllWorld goalie. Midfielder Joey Seivold,
’87, and defenseman Randy Cox, ’84,
both played on the U.S. team which
won the title at the 1986 World Lacrosse
Games in Toronto. Three other Tar
Heels, Steve Stenersen, ’82, Peter
Voelkel, ’83, and Mac Ford, ’85, were alternates on that team.
Mac Ford went on to play on the U.S.
team which swept to the title at the 1990
World Lacrosse Games in Perth, Australia. He was named the top attackman in the tournament. UNC midfielder
Robin Cornish, a Perth native, competed in the 1990 World Games as a
middie on the Aussie squad.
Carolina sent two representatives to
the 1994 World Lacrosse Games in
Manchester, England as the Americans
won yet again. UNC defenseman Joe
Breschi, ’90, and midfielder Ryan
Wade, ’94, were stars on the U.S. team.

Student-Athlete Services at the University
of North Carolina:
Advancing Toward Graduation, Building
Character, Developing Leadership
Student-Athlete Services at the University of
North Carolina encompass three areas that play
an integral part in the collegiate experience of
the approximately 700 UNC student-athletes at
the University who compete in 28 varsity sports,
making Carolina’s program the most extensive
in the Atlantic Coast Conference.
Those three areas are Academic Development, Student-Athlete Development and Leadership Development.
• ACADEMIC DEVELOPMENT
The Academic Support Program is the main
service utilized in advancing UNC student-athletes to graduation. The program assists studentathletes in exploring their interests and abilities,
enjoying a broad educational experience, and
reaching or exceeding their academic goals.
"Our young people are students first and athletes second and that will always be the case at
the University," says UNC Director of Athletics
Dick Baddour. "That is a credit to our coaches,
our administrators and support staff, but most of
all, our student-athletes. Their accomplishments
in the classroom are very impressive.”
During the 2008-09 academic year, 274 Carolina student-athletes made the ACC Academic
Honor Roll, which requires a cumulative GPA of
at least 3.0 for the year.
In the fall of 2008, 173 student-athletes made
2008-09 Atlantic Coast Conference
Academic Honor Roll Selections
The following UNC men’s lacrosse players were
named to the 2008-09 Atlantic Coast Conference
Academic Honor Roll. They maintained a 3.0 grade
point average for the school year while taking a
minimum of 12 credit hours each semester. Nineteen men’s lacrosse players were named to the
Honor Roll. Name and year in school in ‘08-’09.

the Dean's List, and 156 did so in the spring of
2009.
Nineteen Tar Heel men’s lacrosse players
were tapped for the 2008-09 ACC Academic
Honor Roll. Five men’s lacrosse players were
named to the fall semester 2008 Dean’s List.
Ten were named to the Dean’s List in the spring
semester of 2009. The 2008-09 UNC men’s
lacrosse team had the third highest GPA of the
13 varsity men’s teams.
The Academic Support Program is housed primarily in the Pope Academic Support Center,
which is equipped with study facilities, tutorial
rooms, a computer lab, a 128-seat auditorium,
counselors' offices, and state-of-the-art video
and computer equipment. At the center, students
meet with staff to discuss course selection, major
and career exploration, academic progress and
academic eligibility.
The Academic Support Program helps freshmen transition from high school to college
through a variety of academic programs such as
academic counseling, individual tutoring, group
review sessions and supplemental instruction.
One full-time employee
of the Academic Support
Program is specifically assigned to work with each
team. Spencer Welborn
serves as the academic
advisor for the UNC
men’s lacrosse team.
Carolina lacrosse players regularly host patients from the North Carolina
Children’s Hospital as part of the Athletic Department’s Carolina Dreams
program which was founded by former lacrosse player David Werry.
• STUDENT-ATHLETE
DEVELOPMENT
Building character in
UNC student-athletes is
the main charge of Student-Athlete
Development.
Through Carolina Outreach, Tar Heels are involved in a variety of
Page 58 • 2010 North Carolina Men’s Lacrosse Media Guide
projects and organizations on campus and in the
community. The UNC Department of Athletics
has partnered with Gatorade and the UNC
School of Public Health for a national pilot program called Get Kids in Action, in which Tar Heel
student-athletes visit local elementary schools to
encourage children to exercise. The Carolina
Dreams program allows young patients at UNC
Children’s Hospitals to attend Tar Heel sporting
events with UNC student-athletes. Other recent
activities have included building a house with
Habitat for Humanity, cooking meals at Ronald
