Stetson Lacrosse head coach Christy Leach today announced the addition of Jessica Pandolf to the Hatters' coaching staff. Pandolf will serve as the program's assistant coach.
Pandolf comes to Stetson after spending the last three seasons as an assistant coach at LIU-Brooklyn.
“I am so excited to be joining Coach Leach and the Stetson lacrosse family,” Pandolf said. “I look forward to sharing my experiences and knowledge with the team as well as help build an ASUN Conference championship program.”
Prior to her time at LIU Brooklyn, Pandolf spent one season (2016) as a graduate assistant at her alma mater, Lock Haven University in Lock Haven, Pa.
“I’m so excited to have Jessica join our program this year,” Leach said. “Her experience as a player and a coach will bring a great value to our team. She will help push our program to the next level on and off the field.”
Pandolf enjoyed an outstanding career as a student-athlete, earning first-team All-America honors three times (2013-15). A two-time Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Player of the Year honoree (2014, 2015), Pandolf not only helped lead the Bald Eagles to three PSAC conference titles, but also the Division II national championship game in 2014, and again in 2015 while playing as a graduate student.
In addition to her collegiate coaching, Pandolf also has experience at the club level with Long Island Guns Premiere Lacrosse Club.
A 2014 graduate of Lock Haven, Pandolf received a Master’s degree in Psychology of Sport in 2016.
