Men's Lacrosse
About the Program
The mission of Clark’s men’s lacrosse program is to foster an environment where academic achievement and athletic success go hand in hand. Team members strive to reach their full potential in the classroom, because only then will they reach their full potential on the field. By focusing on three important traits – pride, strength and character – the coaching staff helps the Cougars become great leaders, not just great lacrosse players.
Head coach Evan Davis states, “Clark lacrosse stands for more than just the uniform on each player’s back; it represents family. Our slogan ‘4 Pillars, 4 Quarters, 4 Each Other’ embody – family, academics, personal character and conduct, and last but not least, lacrosse.”
The Cougars most prized initiative is their community service commitment to Americans Supporting Americans (ASA), an organization that provides aid to United States troops in Iraq. The Clark squad provides U.S. soldiers abroad with non-perishable food, clothes, magazines and health care items. Clark’s efforts were recognized by the NCAA News and Inside Lacrosse TV.
A program on the rise, Clark completed the 2007 season with the second-most wins in the program’s 17-year history. After setting a new mark for victories in a season (7) in 2006, the Cougars posted a 6-8 overall record last spring. Notable player accomplishments included a new record for groundballs in a career (283) by Daniel Rosenak ’08. With the return of 20-letterwinners, the 2008 lacrosse team is optimistic about the year ahead.
Men’s lacrosse at Clark dates back to 1981 when it was a club sport. It was elevated to varsity status in 1990. The team plays a competitive Division III schedule as a member of the Pilgrim League.
 The Cougars play their home games on a lighted sport-turf field. In addition, the Granger Field complex includes a lighted grass field and a $6-million field house. The Dolan Field House, a support facility for the fall and spring teams, provides indoor practice space, a training room, and team locker rooms for the Clark teams and visiting team locker rooms. The entire facility is located within walking distance of the central campus.
Our Mission
The mission of the Clark University Men’s Lacrosse Program is to foster an environment where
academic achievement and athletic success go hand in hand.
We strive for our team members to reach the highest level of success in the classroom,
because we believe that only then will they reach their full potential on the lacrosse field.
Our coaching staff understands that we are here to help our players to become great men and
leaders, not just great lacrosse players. We do this by focusing on three important traits:
pride, strength and character.
Pride in your work, appearance, who you are, and where you come from. Strength of mind and
body, giving our players the ability to overcome any challenge both mental and physical. This is
achieved through hard work in and out of the classroom. And character - promote those character
traits that will make our team members become great men and leaders in their communities.
To become a member of this team is much deeper than the uniform you put on, it is to become a
member of a family.
