Head Lacrosse Coaches Who Could Reach Landmark Wins

January 24, 2017 by Mike Loveday

Click here to read about head lacrosse coaches seeking milestone victories in 2017.

Terry Crowley celebrates the 2016 FHSAA championship.

When the 2017 boys’ high school lacrosse season begins, so will several head lacrosse coaches hunt for new win milestones.

I have compiled the coaches that are close to a new century mark, as well as coaches that are close to getting halfway to a new century total. These are the coaches that are known, if I am missing anyone please contact me. I have 276 head lacrosse coaches in the LaxRecords.com database as of this writing.

400 Wins

397, Mike Vorgang, Niskayuna (N.Y.) – Achieved
Vorgang has been the head coach of the Warriors since 1994 and now he is three wins away from 400 for his career. The Warriors play Ballston Spa (N.Y.), Darien (Conn.) and Columbia (N.Y.) in its first three games of the year. Niskayuna starts strong every season. Since 2010, using just the Warriors first three games, Vorgang has lost just two of 21. Both those losses were to Darien (2016, 2010).

391, Terry Crowley, St. Thomas Aquinas (Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.) – Achieved
Crowley is coming off a 19-0 season and a FHSAA championship. The Raiders head coach can add another milestone to his résumé with nine wins this season. That is all he needs to reach 400 for his career. St. Thomas Aquinas has yet to win fewer than 13 games under Crowley’s leadership.

300 Wins

299, Tom West, Ponte Vedra (Fla.) – Achieved 
West needs one win to reach 300 for his career. The FHSAA runner-up from last season has won at least 17 games in every season since 2010. The Sharks are coming off the most wins in program history after going 23-1 last season.

McCallie School head lacrosse coach Troy Kemp is pictured here.

McCallie School head lacrosse coach Troy Kemp is close to 300 wins.

288, Troy Kemp, McCallie School (Chattanooga, Tenn.)
Currently at 288 career wins, Kemp needs 12 to hit 300 for his career. Kemp is already the all-time winningest coach in state history and could become the first in the state to reach 300. The Blue Tornado went 10-7 last season, but won at least 18 games in each of the three previous seasons.

294, Pete Mitchell, Comsewogue (N.Y.)
Six wins are all Mitchell needs to reach 300 for his career. The head coach of the Warriors led his team to a 13-4 season last year.

293, Dave Blue, Hudson (Ohio) – Achieved
Blue has been the head coach at Hudson since 1996. He is seven wins away from becoming only the second-known Ohio coach to reach at least 300 for his career.

200 Wins

Tim Gardner (pictured here) needs just one win to reach 200 for his career.

Tim Gardner needs just one win to reach 200 for his career.

199, Tim Gardner, Xaverian Brothers (Mass.) – Achieved
Just one win is all it takes to get Gardner to 200 for his career. It could happen as soon as the first game of the year as the Hawks take on Walpole on April 4. Xaverian defeated Walpole 11-5 last season.

196, John McEvoy, Malvern Prep (Pa.) – Achieved
The Friars are coming off an 18-5 season and McEvoy is on the verge of win No. 200. The schedule is not easy, with the first four games coming against Calvert Hall (Baltimore), Garnet Valley (Pa.), St. Joseph’s Prep (Philadelphia) and Loyola-Blakefield (Towson, Md.). But expect McEvoy to have his team ready and get those four wins.

194, Brad DuPont, Tower Hill (Del.) – Achieved
DuPont can win No. 200 with six wins this season. The Hillers are coming off a 14-4 season and DuPont has led his team to at least 10 wins in every season since 2008.

192, Kevin Murray, Bishop Hendricken (Warwick, R.I.)
Murray needs eight wins to reach 200. He has been the head coach of the Hawks since 2002 and is coming off a 9-5 season.

191, Jim Buczek, Lovett (Atlanta) – Achieved
Buczek has won 191 games since 2005 as head coach at Lovett. The Lions have never won fewer than 14 games since.

190, Scott Cater, Bloomington Jefferson (Minn.)
Cater needs 10 wins to reach 200 for his career. It’s a career that started at Bloomington Jefferson in 1997. The Jaguars have won at least 10 games in nine of those seasons.
