Mark began coaching the Waterford Thunder (5th & 6th grade) Boys’ Lacrosse Team in 2004.  Though the team has won more than it has lost, the focus of the program is to develop in the boys a love of this great game and the technical skills necessary to play it well through Waterford and beyond.  Mark works closely with Craig Morris (Waterford Athletic Director and Head Lacrosse Coach) to make sure that the Thunder experience is well integrated with the middle and upper school lacrosse programs.
    A starting attackman and multiple letter winner at the Mercersburg Academy in Pennsylvania, Mark also attended lacrosse camps at Rutgers University while growing up.  Mark played college lacrosse at Denison University, a top-10 division III program at the time.  He was a starting attackman on the junior varsity squad, and coached the JV team for one year prior to a career in business.  He and his wife, Randi, have three kids (Estie, Luke and Owen) at Waterford.
