His journey through the game has shaped him into a uniquely qualified coach and mentor, capable of developing players at all positions. Bill’s deep understanding of lacrosse, both from a player’s and coach’s perspective, gives him a comprehensive approach to player development. Starting his lacrosse career at Huntington High School, Bill quickly became known for his standout performances as a goalie under the guidance of legendary coach Paul McDermott, a Hall of Fame inductee. Bill earned All-County honors twice and All-Division honors twice, establishing himself as one of the top goalies in the area. This period in his life taught him the foundational skills and mental toughness that every lacrosse player needs to succeed. After high school, Bill took his game to Hofstra University, where he played under John Denowski, one of the sport’s most respected coaches. Denowski’s reputation for developing top-level players and teams made him the perfect coach to help Bill hone his craft at the collegiate level. Bill’s time at Hofstra not only helped him sharpen his skills as a goalie but also gave him an expanded view of lacrosse, as he gained valuable insights into the strategies and roles of every position on the field.

This comprehensive understanding enables him to break down the game from every angle, helping players improve their skills, decision-making, and overall lacrosse IQ. In addition to his collegiate career, Bill was selected to play in the prestigious Vail Lacrosse Shootout, where he was recruited by two different sponsored teams (Velocity & Go Fast). These two teams included some of the game’s greatest players, such as Paul Rabil, Kyle Harrison, Matt Rewkowski, Kyle Barrie, and Mike Law. These players not only had incredible personal success, but they also helped raise the profile of lacrosse as a sport: Throughout his career, Bill also had the privilege of training with some of the most respected goalie coaches in the game: Sean Quirk, Jim Nagle, Billy Daye, and Jeremy Platt. Each of these coaches helped refine Bill’s skills and contributed to his comprehensive understanding of lacrosse: With over three decades of experience as a player at the highest levels, Bill brings a holistic approach to coaching.
