Aright, so i’m on the JV team at SA and technically he’s the director but he coaches Varsity and JV and sometimes girls lax.

yeah, my parentheses comment proved to be pretty accurate… in that I was wrong! ha.

I could see CP becoming the head coach next season. wouldn’t be surprised if this was his last in the NLL.

I know Goldberg still has his summer/select/fall programs but I could see CP doing a similar thing and using some of the St. A’s resources to do so like fields, etc. This seems like a transition style hiring, right? like CP will ease into running the whole show slowly. I still think this is a big pick up for the Scots.

Nope. Goldberg was Head Coach. Fall Ball and summer league in Florida (by FHSAA rules) is a separate club, not part of the school program. Dawson is still being referred to as “Interim Head Coach,” which suggests that the Head Coach slot is still open. Since Powell is still playing NLL during the spring season, and has spring clinics scheduled on his website, it remains to be seen what he’ll have time for at the school…

this is pretty nuts. My roommate is from boca and i have played at that school before. They have a nationally recognized program already and it looks like they are trying to make it even bigger. I know that casey has helped out at Cortland State and lives in florida for his indoor gig. Good luck

my understanding (which could be wrong) is that head coach position is only a part of the director of lacrosse’s responsibilities. As the Director, CP will probably be reponsible for Middle School, JV, freshman programs, summer camps, fall/winter, etc. as well. Basically overseeing the entire boys’ lacrosse world at St. A’s. Not just the “big dogs” during the spring. I believe the title is the same as what Goldberg had when he was there. It is a more comprehensive position that just “coach”.

Someone in the know, please correct me if I misunderstood how it works.

Palm Beach Post article makes it sound like he’s coaching. Inside Lacrosse’s press release make it sound like he’s director of ops. What’s really going on?

I grew up @ Wantagh , Long Island wathcing the growth of Lacrosse. Now live in Atlanta suburb with a son, McIntosh HS Senior (Peachtree City), 6’5″ who is an avid lacrosse player. Lacrosse is so HOT in the south. It is the fastest growing sport and recreation to Elite teams are sprouting everywhere. It does not surprise me that one of the Powell brothers would take that open position. Lacrosse in the south is going to dominate the future. Weather conditions are perfect for year round playing. Many Yankees like our family have relocated south bringing the sport here with experienced coaches. My son has been coach for the last 6 yrs by Lacrosse Hall of Fame player, Pete Cramblet (also West Point/Army All American) who is also from Long Island…Huntington…heard of that town?
