Recently resigned from the US Lacrosse Youth Council. Took over the Tennessee Chapter in November 2008 after having served as VP for several years. Profession/Career: Foreign language teacher at the McCallie School in Chattanooga, TN, and officer with the Tennessee Army National Guard. Your favorite lacrosse memory: Double over-time victory against Westminster Middle School in spring 2009. We survived being three-men down (not a good thing) in the first sudden death overtime period to pull out the victory. Westminster is as classy a program as it gets - great coaching, great players and great sports! The game could have gone either way. We could not have pulled it off without the cheering and support of our arch-rival Baylor. Some of their players came to cheer for us and even worked the game and penalty clock when we needed all coaches on deck. Not only a great lacrosse memory and a proud moment for me as coach but also a great demonstration of sportsmanship. Additional comments: Thanks to all the parents, coaches, officials and players that make our sport so great.
