Head Coach Glenn Thiel

Glenn

THIEL 234-175 at Penn State 311-211 overall 33rd year at PSU • 43rd Overall

Glenn Thiel enters his 33rd season as head coach of the Nittany Lions He is the owner of over 200 wins at Penn State and over 300 wins for his career. After coaching the team to an NCAA tournament appearance in 2005, plus a share of the ECAC regular season crown, Thiel guided Penn State back to the ECAC title-deciding game in 2006 and just missed out on the NCAA tournament. Last year, the Nittany Lions went 9-5, just missed an NCAA bid, and ended the season ranked No. 16 in the final national coaches poll. In 1977, after eight highly successful years at Virginia, Thiel returned to his alma mater as the Nittany Lions’ head coach, following in the footsteps of his late father, Glenn “Nick” Thiel, who guided Penn State’s lacrosse teams from 1935 until 1956. “He got out of coaching before I was aware of what he was doing,” said Thiel. “I was too young. But knowing his personality and mine, I’m sure we are probably pretty similar. We both tend to be yellers.” “I talked to the Tailback Club once and to a couple of guys who had played for Dad for one or two days. They said, ‘Too tough a game to start, too much running and Nick Thiel yelling all the time.’ I’m kind of the same way.” Nick Thiel was USILA Man of the Year twice and was inducted into the USILA Hall of Fame in 1966, the same year that Glenn graduated from Penn State. Glenn Thiel has a 311-211 overall record over 42 seasons, and a 234-175 record in 32 years at Penn State. He is currently in third place on the national all-time coaches career wins list. A 1966 Penn State graduate, Thiel played two seasons with his brother, Dave, under Dick Pencek, whom Thiel succeeded as coach. He was a midfielder on the 1964-66 Nittany Lion teams, serving as co-captain his senior campaign. He received the Pittenger Award as the squad’s most valuable senior and was selected to play in the North/South All-Star Classic after scoring 27 goals with six assists in 1966. Thiel logged a record of 63-30 in eight seasons as head coach at Virginia from 1970-77. His 1972 squad won the NCAA Championship title with a 13-12 victory over Johns Hopkins. In 1970, the Cavaliers tied for the USILA national title. “Winning the National Championship at Virginia was a great feeling and that’s what we’re shooting for here at Penn State. That’s all we talk about and now we have a good opportunity to achieve our goal this year.” In guiding Virginia to three Atlantic Coast Conference Championships, Thiel coached 12 first team All-Americans. He twice coached the South to 12 PENN STATE 2009-2010

victory in the North/South All-Star Classic (1973, ‘94). His father was 1-11 coaching in the All-Star classic. His brother played in the 1965 game. In the fall of 1996, Thiel was among the second class of inductees into the Virginia Lacrosse Hall of Fame. The Hall was established to honor the men and women who have made great contributions to the game of lacrosse. Four of Thiel’s former players, Pete Eldridge, Jay Connor, Tom Duquette and John Driscoll are in the National Lacrosse Foundation Hall of Fame. Thiel is very active in developing and promoting lacrosse. A former member of the executive board of the USILA, Thiel serves on the organization’s All-American and National Rankings Committees. Thiel is a past member of the United States Lacrosse Coaches Association executive board. He was involved in the selection of the 1982, 1986 and 1990 U.S. World teams. He is also active as a clinician and summer camp instructor. Thiel received a master’s degree in physical education from Massachusetts in 1970. Thiel and his wife, Sally, reside in State College, Pa.

COACHES VIEW: “Charley will be a key ingredient this spring. As a fifth year player, he has the experience to help again in the face off game, but we expect him to be healthy enough to blend into the offense more this spring. Henneghan’s face off style coordinates well with Joe Britt to give the Nittany Lions a great 1-2 punch. “Charley has worked hard on conditioning, but must remain healthy to allow us to use his fine shooting skills.

Alex has good take away ability, and ability to get the ball on the ground, but must become tougher in the hands-on aspects of defense. Alex has great potential, if he improves his overall conditioning he could be a regular.”

PENN STATE 8, #8 NOTRE DAME 13 SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 2009 -- STATE COLLEGE, PA. The Penn State Nittany Lion men’s lacrosse team, receiving votes in the USILA Coaches Poll, dropped a hard-fought 13-8 decision to No. 8 Notre Dame in its home opener on Sunday. Penn State fell behind early but rallied late, only to have the Irish hold on for the non-conference victory. The Fighting Irish took advantage of two early Penn State penalties to jump out to an early lead. Notre Dame’s Jake Marmul opened up the scoring for Notre Dame with a man-up goal at the 11:51 and then Grant Krebs took a pass from Neal Hicks at the 8:38 mark in another man-up situation to put the Irish up 2-0. Hicks upped the lead to 3-0 before the first period ended with a goal at the 3:47 mark, taking a pass from Mike Creighton. Notre Dame continued to set the tempo on offense, keeping action on its side of the field early in the second period. Penn State goalie Drew Adams (Springfield, Pa.) kept Penn State close, collecting seven saves in just over 16 minutes of play. Adams’ defense allowed Penn State to score a man-up goal of its own at the 10:41 mark. Sophomore Chris Hogan (Wyckoff, N.J.) took a sharp pass from freshman Conrad Ridgway (Audubon, Pa.) and blast a goal past Irish keeper Scott Rodgers, cutting the lead to 3-1. Penn State began asserting itself offensively, shifting the action to Notre Dame’s side of the field and forcing the Irish to play defense. But Penn State could not capitalize and Notre Dame’s Duncan Swezey notched an unassisted goal with 5:24 left in the half to put the Irish back up by three, 4-1. Junior Brian Shea (Gaithersburg, Md.) answered right back for Penn State, however, scoring unassisted with 3:45 remaining after Chris Mulqueen (Downingtown, Pa.) corralled a ground ball after a scramble near the Irish goal. But Hicks took advantage of a seam in front of the Penn State goal just two minutes later, taking a pass from Krebs, to put Notre Dame up 5-2 with under two minutes to play in the half. The Irish defense made that lead hold up heading into intermission. Penalties continued to play a big part in the game as the third period started as Penn State’s Ridgway scored a man-up goal less than a minute into the second half. Ridgway blasted a goal past the Irish keeper from the top of the box at the 14:14 mark to get the Nittany Lions to within two goals again, 5-3. The goal energized Penn State as freshman Jack Forster (Jenkintown, Pa.) made an outstanding offensive move at the 12:55 mark and cut the Irish lead to 5-4 with an unassisted goal. Notre Dame stopped Penn State’s run just :55 later as Ryan Hoff scored off a rebound at the 12:00 mark, followed by David Earl’s unassisted goal at the 11:25 mark.

Loyola notched the game’s first goal early when Shane Koppens scored unassisted at the 13:15 mark to give the Greyhounds a 1-0 lead. Four minutes later, Loyola got a goal on a fast break from Cooper MacDonnell to go up 2-0. Nittany Lion goalie Drew Adams (Springfield, Pa.) kept Penn State close with a number of saves until MacDonnell scored his second goal with 2:53 left in the first period to give LC a 3-0 lead after one period. Each team’s defense stiffened during the first portion of the second period, with neither squad scoring for more than half the period. Loyola nearly scored on a man-up situation with 6:00 left in the half, but a crease violation negated the goal. Penn State had its own man-up chance with under 4:00 remaining but could not score as well and the second period remained scoreless until the half, allowing Loyola to head to the break with a 3-0 lead. Penn State withstood an early penalty in the third period, keeping Loyola from getting a shot off. Sophomore Colton Vosburgh (Kennett Square, Pa.) then scored an unassisted goal seconds after the Nittany Lions killed the penalty, cutting Loyola’s lead to 3-1. But the Greyhounds answered back immediately when Jake Wilcox scored unassisted half a minute later to put LC back up by three, 4-1, with 12:56 left in the third period. Greyhound Jimmy Daly scored an unassisted goal off a rebound at the 5:38 mark before Hogan answered with an unassisted goal with just 2:19 left in the period. Still, the Greyhounds maintained their three goal lead after three periods. Hogan pulled Penn State to within two with an unassisted goal just a minute into the period, breaking right and firing a shot past Loyola goalie Jake Hagelin from 15 yards out. But MacDonnell answered again for the Greyhounds, sending the ball past Adams from close range to put LC up 6-3 with 11:39 left in the game. Penn State freshman Jack Forster (Jenkintown, Pa.) scored with 10:19 on a play that also saw Loyola hit with a slashing penalty. The goal cut the Greyhound lead to 6-4 and gave Penn State a one minute man-up opportunity. Loyola was able to kill the entire period by maintaining possession for the bulk of the penalty and hold on to its two goal lead with just over 9:00 left to play. Loyola forced Penn State into three straight failed clears and then added a goal at the 6:25 mark when Koppens took a pass from Matt Langan on a fast break to take a 7-4 lead with 6:25 to play. Sophomore Will Donley (Pittsburgh, Pa.) took a Billy Lloyd (West Chester, Pa.) and scored with 5:11 left, pulling Penn State to within two again and then Hogan notched his third goal of the game off the ensuing face-off and the Nittany Lions trailed by only one, 7-6, with 4:36 left to play.

Season in Review St. John’s got on the board first, getting an unassisted goal from Dom DeNapoli at the 12:27 mark as the Red Storm forward finished off a fast break by sending the ball past Adams. But freshman Jack Forster quickly answered, taking an assist from classmate Mackrides just :20 later to tie the score at 1-1. Ryan McAleenan (Grand Rapids, Mich.) put Penn State up by one at the 10:58 mark, taking an assist from John Stuckey (Summit, N.J.) on a fast break after an SJU turnover. Jack Forster added to Penn State’s lead at the 8:21 mark, picking up a loose ball in front of St. John’s goalie Gavin Buckley and swiftly sending the ball past the Red Storm junior to give the Lions a 3-1 lead. St. John’s would tie the game before the period ended, however, getting two unassisted goals from Carl Iacona. The first came at the 4:45 mark and the second came at the 1:39 mark. But Jack Forster would notch his third goal of the opening period, scoring unassisted with 1:01 left, and Mackrides would take a Charley Henneghan (Royal Oak, Mich.) pass off a won face off just six seconds later and the Nittany Lions quickly regained their two goal lead (5-3) heading into the second period. Mackrides began the second period by setting up two quick Penn State goals, feeding senior Rob Forster (Jenkintown, Pa.) at the 13:12 mark and then assisting Brian Shea (Gaithersburg, Md.) with 12:24 left to give the Nittany Lions a 7-3 lead. Freshman Ryan Link (Englewood, Colo.) scored Penn State fifth straight goal, scoring unassisted at the 6:58 mark.

St. John’s would snap the string of six straight goals with a Drew Schanen score off a Harry Kutner assist with 4:40 left in the half. The Forster brothers would add one more goal before the end of the half, with Rob feeding Jack with just :40 left to give Penn State a 10-4 lead at intermission. Adams stepped up to start the third period, shutting down consistent St. John’s pressure over the period’s first seven-plus minutes with a number of point blank saves. But St. John’s finally broke past Adams, getting an unassisted goal from Trevor Michaelsen at the 7:21 mark to cut Penn State’s lead to 10-5. But Jack Forster’s sixth goal of the game, off a Shea assist, less than a minute later put the Lions back up by six, 11-5, with 6:30 left in the third period. But St. John’s took advantage of a man-up opportunity, getting a Schanen goal with 3:58 left in the period. The Red Storm cut the Lion lead to 11-7 heading into the fourth with a Michaelsen from Jamal Jones effort with just :39 left in the period. Kutner continued the Red Storm’s second half rally, scoring unassisted less than a minute into the fourth period to cut Penn State’s once six goal lead to just three, 11-8. Just a minute later, at the 13:09 mark, SJU scored again when Bobby Fitton took a Garrett Mitchell pass and blazed the ball past Adams to bring the Red Storm to within two, 11-9. Schanen brought SJU to within one at the 10:06 mark, taking a Jones pass to make the score 11-10 and forcing a Penn State time-out. But the Red Storm would complete the comeback, scoring their sixth straight goal with 4:50 left in the game as another Schanen from Jones score tied the game at 11-11. The Nittany Lion offense was dealt a blow with just 1:45 left in the game when Jack Forster left the game with an injury, giving the ball over to St. John’s. The Red Storm maintained possession, working the ball down to the Nittany Lion side of the field before calling a timeout with :53 left. Penn State’s defense was able to hold firm and send the game into overtime. Jack Forster returned to the field for Penn State in the overtime period, but St. John’s won the opening face off and had the first chance to win the game. The Red Storm worked the ball down to Penn State’s side of the field and called its only time out of the extra period with 3:33 left in the first sudden death overtime. But Adams came up with a big save and gave possession back to Penn State. After working the ball down to the Red Storm half of the field, it was Penn State’s 40 PENN STATE 2009-2010

Colton Vosburgh (Kennett Square, Pa.) got Penn State started, scoring the first of three straight goals to open the first period.

Senior goalie Drew Adams (Springfield, Pa.) continued to make a case for All-America honors with 19 saves, including four in the overtime periods. Adams faced 54 Hoya shots and allowed only 11 goals in the game. Georgetown outscored Penn State 3-2 in the opening period. The Hoyas got an early goal from Jake Samperton less than a minute into the contest before Shea took a Vosburgh assist to tie the game at the 11:59 mark. Forster got his first goal with an assist from Matt Loy (Somerset, N.J.) less than a minute later but GU scored the period’s final two goals. One from Scott Kocis at the 10:45 mark and another from Dan D’Agnes with 7:15 left. Penn State turned the tables on the Hoyas in the second period, outscoring the hosts 2-1. Mackrides tied the game at 3-3 just :18 into the second period. Samperton scored again at the 12:06 mark to put GU up 4-3, a lead they would hold until Forster scored off a Will Donley (Pittsburgh, Pa.) assist with 2:47 left in the half to send the teams into intermission tied 4-4. The home standing Hoyas scored the first two goals of a furious third period. Andrew Brancaccio and David Shriver each scored in the first three minutes to put GU up 6-4.

But Georgetown answered with two goals of its own to retake a 10-9 lead as Samperton and Zach Angel scored at the 11:14 and 6:53 marks respectively.

Earl Ross (Shoreham, Vt.) then gave Penn State an 11-10 lead just eight seconds later, scoring off the ensuing face-off with 5:35 to play. Adams and the Penn State defense then held firm and the Lions nearly got the win in regulation. But Georgetown’s Ricky Mirabito scored with a half second to play to send the game into overtime tied at 11-11. The first extra session outstanding play from Adams and the Nittany Lion defense as Penn State killed off two GU man-up chances. The Nittany Lions then sealed the win with just :58 left in the second overtime when Mackrides fed Forster for the game winner (a shot that GU goalie Jack Davis nearly saved). But Forster’s shot was powerful enough to pop out of the Hoya goalie’s stick and give the Nittany Lions the hard-fought 12-11 win. Georgetown outshot Penn State 54-46 and had a 42-36 edge in ground balls. The teams nearly split 28 face-offs with Penn State winning 15 and GU winning 13. Each team connected on two of five man-up chances. Adams’ 19-11 edge in saves was the decisive factor for Penn State as the Nittany Lions won their sixth straight game to close out the regular season. The win was also Penn State’s second straight over Georgetown. Penn State ends the 2009 regular season with a 9-5 record, 4-3 in its final year in the ECAC Lacrosse League, good enough for third place. Georgetown ends its season at 7-7, 3-4.

Senior goalie Drew Adams (Springfield, Pa.), senior attack Rob Forster (Jenkintown, Pa.), and freshman attack Matthew Mackrides (Newtown Square, Pa.) were each honored in Penn State’s final week in the ECAC Lacrosse League. Adams was named Defensive Player of the Week (along with UMass’ Doc Schneider) after closing out an amazing collegiate career by turning back a 54-shot barrage in Penn State’s win at GU. Adams collected 19 saves in the game, including two in each extra period, to lead the Nittany Lions to their sixth straight win to close out the 2009 campaign. Adams ends the year with a 7.96 goals against average and 212 saves. The 212 saves is the fourth-most in school history and give Adams 694 career saves, by far the most in Penn State history. Forster was named Offensive Player of the Week (along with UMass’ Tim Balise) after closing his Penn State career with an outstanding five-point effort in the GU win. Forster had four goals and an assist, including the game winner with less than a minute left in the second extra period. Forster ends the season as Penn State’s leading scorer with 35 points off 26 goals and nine assists. He leaves PSU with 96 career points. Mackrides earned his second ECAC Rookie of the Week award after finishing outstanding freshman campaign by scoring a goal and dishing off two assists (including the game winner in overtime) in the road win. Mackrides three-point effort allows him to end the 2009 season with 28 points off 15 goals and a team-best 13 assists.

HOGAN AND ADAMS EARN ALL-ECAC HONORS Penn State Nittany Lion lacrosse player Chris Hogan (Wyckoff, N.J.) was named to the All-ECAC Lacrosse League first team, earning the honor for the first time in his career. Senior goalie Drew Adams (Springfield, Pa.) was named to the AllECAC Lacrosse League second team. Hogan ended the campaign with 34 points

Drew Adams was a three-time honorable mention All-American for Penn State.

Nittany Lion History Penn State lacrosse has come a long way since its first two-game season in 1913. The Nittany Lions have not always had winning records, but Penn State is always recognized for its long tradition of lacrosse.

Each year, the league champion, determined by regular season head-to-head competition, receives an automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament. In 2005, the ECAC Lacrosse League added new members Hobart College, Loyola College (Md.) and St. Johns University to the league. The Fairfield Stags joined the conference’s ranks last year.

The first team was organized by a Swarthmore transfer student Walter S. Farley. Through his efforts, the first game was played against Pennsylvania on May 24, 1913. The debut was successful as the Lions won, 4-3. They finished the season with a 3-3 tie against the Bronx Lacrosse Club.

Dick Pencek With its start in 1913, lacrosse is one of the oldest continuous sports at Penn State. Twelve coaches have guided the lacrosse program. The only season that Penn State failed to field a team was in 1918, when an influenza epidemic swept the nation. In those 84 seasons, Penn State has compiled a 366-396-8 record. While Penn State initially played as an independent, they became active members of the United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse League in 1922. In 1926, Penn State became a charter member of the United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association, the current organization governing collegiate lacrosse. Many of the players during the early years had never played or seen the game before their arrival on campus. Most were athletes from other sports, students from interclass lacrosse competition or just students who were good athletes who wanted to participate in intercollegiate athletics. Eighty one of these players have won All-America honors 106 times and 52 have played in the North-South All-Star game. Three Penn Staters, Tom Hayes and the late Nick Thiel and Harry Wilson, are enshrined in the Lacrosse Hall of Fame. Although six coaches preceded him, the coach who probably did the most for Penn State lacrosse and the game itself was Nick Thiel, Penn State's coach from 1935-56. Despite a 22-year record of 87-110, Thiel was regarded as a great teacher and coach.

Thiel continued active leadership in the game of lacrosse as long-time secretary-treasurer of the USILA. Thiel coached such Penn State standouts as George Ritter (the Lions' only first team All-American), and Bart Buser in the early years. During the late 40s, a heyday in Penn State athletics because of the influx of veterans following World War II, John Nolan hit the field for the Nittany Lions. Al Fulton and 1957 national scoring leader Bill Hess were both on Thiel's squads in the early 50s. As was the case with most Lion lacrosse coaches, every year was a rebuilding year because of the novices who played on Penn State's teams. Thiel received the United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association "Man-of-theYear" award in 1945 and 1947 and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1966. When appointed in 1962, Dick Pencek was the youngest head coach in the nation. He guided the Lions in 1962, departed for the military, and returned to coach from 196577, compiling a record of 70-68-2. Along with his winning record, he built the program into a contender on the national scene, challenging for the NCAA Tournament in 1975 and 1976.

In 2007, Adams repeated his Goalie of the Year honors in the ECAC Lacrosse League while Heim and Saltsman were first team picks. Last year, Adams won his third straight ECAC Goalie of the Year honor and was once again a first team All-ECAC selection. Penn State won its final five games of the 2009 season, wrapping up its time in the ECAC Lacrosse League with a 4-3 conference mark and a No. 16 ranking in the final USILA Coaches Poll. In 2010, Penn State will join the Colonial Athletic Association and compete with Towson, Hofstra, Drexel, UMass and Delaware for the CAA’s automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. The regular season results will determine the four CAA teams that will compete in the CAA tournament on May 5 and 8 for the automatic bid to the NCAA tournament.

Pencek began the recruiting of talented high school players, a practice continued under his successor, Glenn F. Thiel, son of Nick Thiel, former coach. Glenn Thiel led Virginia to the 1972 NCAA title and a share of the 1970 USILA national championship, before returning to his alma mater in 1978. With increased administrative support, Penn State lacrosse is now on the national scene as is reflected in the increase in recruiting grant in aids, and scheduling to include Massachusetts, Georgetown, Rutgers, Notre Dame and Ohio State. In the spring of 2000, Penn State began play in the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference Lacrosse League. Charter members of the ECAC Lacrosse League include Georgetown, Massachusetts, Rutgers, Navy, UMBC, Stony Brook and Penn State.

In 2006, four Nittany Lions earned first team All-League laurels. Nate Whitaker, Pat Heim, Dan Saltsman and freshman goalie Drew Adams were all honored on the squad. Adams became Penn State’s second lacrosse rookie of the year when he garnered both ECAC Lacrosse League Rookie of the Year and ECAC Goalkeeper of the Year honors as well as first team league laurels. Adams and Pat Heim were also Honorable Mention All-Americans as recognized by the United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association.
