Last week, the former Kennebunk High student/athlete, was named men's lacrosse head coach at Ohio State University. He succeeds Joe Breschi who recently moved on to the head coaching job at North Carolina.
"I want to thank athletics director Gene Smith, TJ Shelton and the Ohio State administration for the opportunity to lead the Buckeye lacrosse program," Myers said in a press release. "I need to thank (former coach) Joe Breschi, who did so much for both the Ohio State men's lacrosse program and for me as a coach and person. I really appreciate the support I've received from the players, parents and alumni. I am excited about the bright future we have here."

Lacrosse News: Andrew Baxter Named Assistant Coach at Ohio State

Andrew Baxter Named Assistant Coach at Ohio State

2008-08-01

COLUMBUS, Ohio ? Andrew Baxter has been named the top assistant coach for the Ohio State men's lacrosse team, head coach Nick Myers announced Thursday. Baxter comes to the Buckeyes following four seasons as the first assistant at Drexel University and five years overall with the Dragons.

"We are thrilled to have Andrew Baxter join our coaching staff and I expect him to make an immediate impact," Myers said. "His vision for the student athletes' overall development is very clear and he possesses a strong sense of core values and family. Andrew has established a reputation as one of the top defensive minds in the game."

Baxter served as the offensive coordinator for Drexel from 2004-06 before switching to the defensive coordinator role in 2007. Under Baxter, the Dragons flourished on defense, ranking seventh nationally in scoring defense in both 2007 and 2008. They also recorded the nation's fifth highest face-off win percentage in 2008 en route to winning the Colonial Athletic Association regular season championship.

Not a lot of action in the lacrosse thread. I'm sure the matchup before the Spring Game will change that. :wink2:

On ESPN2, I just watched Virginia defeat Maryland 10-9 in 7 OTs, which I think they said was the all-time record for any college lax game. Virginia is #1, and remained undefeated. Maryland had a goal in the first OT wiped out by an inadvertent whistle.

Another of the many "legacy programs" of Andy Geiger. He took a perennial also-ran, made the right hires, gave them the necessary means...necessary means to compete at a national level. Today, they're a perennial top 20 program and getting better.

BUCKEYE BOUND
HIES lacrosse star headed to Ohio State

Staff / Nathan Self
Darius Bowling was honored as a U.S. Lacrosse All-American in both his junior and senior seasons. The Denver, Colo., native will enroll at Ohio State beginning in September.

Playing lacrosse in the South is nothing like doing so in the Midwest or the Northeast.

Down here football reigns supreme, followed by baseball and basketball. Lacrosse is the new kid in town, but that new kid is getting a lot of attention.

In the past 10 years, lacrosse has become quite popular with the area high schools. Holy Innocents? is a perfect example of this.

Last year the Golden Bears advanced to the third round of the Class A-AAAA tournament, and a large part of that success was due to then-senior Darius Bowling.

The defenseman was so good that he earned a scholarship from Ohio State, where he will enroll in September.

Ohio State?s recruitment of Bowling began long before he signed on the dotted line.

?I went to the University of Virginia lacrosse camp when I was a freshman and there happened to be one of the Ohio State coaches there,? he said. ?I played well and I was told to keep playing hard, and when I was a junior they?d have a spot for me.?

Bowling was initially interested in Notre Dame and Bucknell University in Lewisburg, Penn., but when he took an official visit to Ohio State in November of last year, he was sold.

?We rushed the field after Ohio State beat Iowa, sending them to the Rose Bowl,? he said. ?It was awesome.

?I already have my season tickets for this season.?

One of the reasons Ohio State became so attractive to Bowling was the large campus in Columbus.

There are more than 55,000 students at Ohio State, making it one of the largest campuses in the country.

?I was looking for a bigger school,? he said. ?Since I went [to Holy Innocents?], I wanted to try something different, and I knew I had to go up North to play lacrosse and Ohio State fit.?
