Wagner was cited for the Port Richmond Partnership, an innovative program that will focus the school’s community resources in an effort to improve quality of life in a specific Staten Island neighborhood. Movie companies have frequently used the campus as a Movie classic college setting, most recently for a movie titled “School of Rock” starring Jack Black (Shallow Hal). The picturesque campus was also used in a fall 2001 television series, The Education of Max Bixford, starring Richard Dreyfus and as the site of a prospective private military school in the HBO series, The Sopranos.

Since the adoption of the Wagner Plan in 1997, enrollment has increased by nearly 40 percent and student quality as measured by high school average and SAT scores have improved as well. Once largely a commuter campus, now 82 percent of all undergraduates live on campus in residence halls that offer “million dollar” views. Though continuing to serve students from metropolitan New York, the college draws most of its enrollment from beyond the immediate region. By every measure – enrollment, endowment, and national reputation – Wagner is ascending the ranks of America’s strongest small colleges that blend the liberal arts with a commitment to service and preparation for the professions. Campus life includes the array of sports provided by an NCAA Division I program which is housed in a 93,000-square-foot sports center featuring an extensive fitness center, an indoor NCAA swimming pool and a basketball arena. A football and track & field stadium showcases a variety of playing fields throughout the campus including baseball, softball, lacrosse and soccer venues. Wagner’s alumni include Broadway Tony award winners, movie stars, film producers, playwrights, and Fortune 500 CEO’s including the chairman of GE Investments, the chairman of Dupont Europe, the chairman Emeritus of The Oppenheimer Management Company and the chairman of the New York Power Authority. Visitors to and residents of New York City alike enjoy access to a rich and diverse array of museums, cultural organizations, arts performances, sports teams, societies and attractions. Some of the best and most famous attractions in the world call New York City home. We encourage you to find out more about them, so that you can plan a visit to what is one of the most vibrant and exciting cities in the world. To get to Manhattan from Staten Island, you can take a ride on the world-famous Staten Island Ferry, a well-recognized icon of New York City transportation, and incidentally, a free ride into the heart of New York City.

2015 WAGNER WOMEN’S LACROSSE
Walter Hameline Athletic Director Walt Hameline, who announced on November 24, 2014 that he was stepping down as Wagner College head football coach, continues to amass an astounding record of achievement and consistency as the Seahawks’ athletic director, a position he has held since 1981. The results derived from this energetic leader, who approaches each day with relentless energy, passion and enthusiasm, are profound. “Walt Hamline represents the best of what Wagner is all about - high achievement, integrity and hard work,” said Wagner College President Richard Guarasci. “He has been an excellent teacher, mentor and leader, and one of the truly great influences on the development and history of Wagner College. It has been my good fortune to work alongside him. “He is a Wagner treasure and he will continue as Athletics Director to leave his indelible mark of character and commitment on this special place,” Guarasci continued. “I look forward to many years of his fine leadership in athletics and on all aspects of our campus community.” For the last eight years, the Northeast Conference (NEC) has presented the Institutional Academic Award to the league member who attains the highest overall institutional grade-point average amongst student-athletes competing in sports sponsored by the NCAA Division I conference. In 2012-2013, for an NEC-record third time, Wagner claimed this award with an NEC-record 3.305 grade point average in its 19 sponsored sports. Additionally, the 2012-2013 Seahawks’ soccer (3.540), indoor women’s track & field (3.457), outdoor women’s track & field (3.457) and men’s lacrosse (3.230) teams paced their 15465respective sports. In 2013-2014, the Seahawks’ Swimming & Diving (3.537), Men’s Lacrosse (3.221) and Football (2.969) squads all won the Team GPA Award for their respective sports. The 2013-2014 academic year was a high-water mark for Seahawk student-athletes on a variety of fronts as Wagner claimed both the SAAC Student-Athlete of the Year (Meredith Ketchmark – Swimming & Diving) and the NEC Female Scholar-Athlete of the Year (Ellen Huffman – Golf) Awards. Wagner also had three student-athletes earn NEC Scholar-Athlete of the year Award in their respective sports this past academic year in Huffman (Golf), Kelsey Parker (Softball) and Matthew Kane (Track & Field). Each year, the NCAA recognizes teams that score in the top 10 percent in their sport with respect to Academic Progress Rates (APR). In 20132014, five Wagner athletic teams – men’s and women’s tennis, women’s basketball, women’s cross country and women’s golf – were cited by the NCAA with public recognition awards. Additionally, a total of 237 Seahawk student-athletes earned spots on the 2013-2014 NEC Academic Honor Roll, with 64 being named in the fall, 54 in the winter, and 119 in the spring. Of the 64 members of the 2013 Fall NEC Honor Roll, 29 were members of the Wagner football team that is coached by Hameline. In April of 2012, Hameline, who has enjoyed a long and proud association with metropolitan area basketball and the National Invitation Tournament (NIT), was the recipient of the 2012 Distinguished Service Award from the Metropolitan Basketball Writers Association (MBWA). Distinguished Service Awards are presented by the MBWA to individuals that have made significant contributions to college basketball. For more than two decades, he was one of five metro area athletic directors, along with his peers at NYU, Fordham, Manhattan and St. John’s, who helped comprise the Metropolitan Intercollegiate Basketball Association (MIBA). Along with NIT Executive Director Jack Powers, Hameline helped select teams for both preseason and postseason NIT’s, while directing other functions such as the NIT All-Star Summer Tour. Under Hameline’s leadership, the Wagner Athletic Department has undergone an ambitious expansion in both sport offerings and facility improvements. Most recently, and thanks to the generosity of one of his former offensive lineman and now highly-successful business man, Marc Lebovitz, Wagner College Stadium was the beneficiary of a striking state-of-the-art video scoreboard in 2010. The scoreboard, donated by Lebovitz, a member of the Seahawks’ 1987 Division III National Championship football team and a 1991 Wagner graduate, represented a major facility upgrade for the Green & White football program, while also benefiting the women’s soccer, men’s lacrosse, women’s lacrosse and men’s & women’s track and field programs. Hameline completed his 34th season on Saturday as the Seahawks posted a riveting 23-20 win at Bryant, giving the Seahawks a 7-4-record and a share of the 2014 Northeast Conference (NEC) regular season title at 5-1, Wagner’s second league crown in the last three years. The 2014 campaign was the 24th winning season that the Green & White have enjoyed under Hameline, who has amassed an all-time record of 223-139-2 (.615) on Grymes Hill. At the conclusion of the 2014 regular season, those 223 victories ranked fifth among active head Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) head coaches. During a stirring ceremony prior to kickoff of the September 15, 2012, Wagner vs. Monmouth game, the field at Wagner College Stadium was named Hameline Field in honor of his long-time success at the helm of the Seahawk gridiron program. An outstanding defensive back at Brockport State, Hameline received his Bachelor of Science degree in physical education in 1975, and went on to earn his Master’s Degree in education from the University of Albany in 1977. Hameline resides in Colts Neck, NJ, with his wife, Debi, and they are the proud parents of daughters Kristen and Kelly.

Northeast Conference History: It is with great pride and anticipation that the Northeast Conference (NEC) entered its 34th year as an NCAA Division I athletic conference in 2014-2015. Ten strong and committed to strengthening the Conference from within, the NEC comes off the most successful year in league history in terms of athletic and academic success. Poised for a new era of growth, innovation and achievement under the leadership of Noreen Morris, the Conference will continue to build around the theme of #NECPride. The NEC and its member institutions are committed to providing opportunities for student-athletes to achieve their fullest potential both in athletic competition and in the classroom. Likewise, the Conference continually strives to be an NCAA Division I leader for student-athlete achievement, academic excellence, integrity, sportsmanship, equity and diversity, community partnership and national engagement. When the Northeast Conference (NEC) was first established as the ECAC-Metro Conference back in 1981, the league’s founders had one goal in mind: to create a competitive NCAA Division I men’s basketball conference for unaffiliated schools on the Eastern seaboard. A single-sport entity at its inception, the NEC has grown far beyond expectations over the past three plus decades, having transformed itself into a 10-member, 22-sport conference. In recent years, the NEC has taken aim at elevating the brand awareness of the league, elevating the caliber of its championship events and enhancing the opportunities and experiences for student-athletes that compete in the Conference. The NEC has raised its commitment to basketball through a host of strategic initiatives, most notably via a Brand and Basketball Enhancement fund, revised scheduling parameters and the implementation of state-of-the-art LED signage at all arenas. The NEC has also provided each institution with a basketball marketing grant that resulted in the highest attendance on the men’s side in 15 years and the highest per-game average in women’s basketball history last season. The remarkable success story of the Conference began to unfold in 1985, when the league began sponsoring additional sports. Three years later, a change of name was in order and the Northeast Conference as we know it today was born. With membership and sport sponsorship continuing to grow over the years, the NEC now enjoys qualification or play-in access to 14 different NCAA Championships (baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, football, men’s and women’s golf, men’s and women’s lacrosse, men’s and women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s tennis and women’s volleyball). NEC Footprint - 2014-15 Though the NEC has featured various incarnations since its inception, charter members Fairleigh Dickinson, LIU Brooklyn, Robert Morris, St. Francis Brooklyn, Saint Francis U and Wagner remain part of the current 10-school alignment. They are joined by Mount St. Mary’s (admitted in 1989), Central Connecticut (1997), Sacred Heart (1999) and Bryant (2012). The NEC’s six-state geographic footprint includes access to such major media markets as New York City, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Hartford and Providence. NEC member institutions now compete in 22 championship sports: baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, women’s bowling, men’s and women’s cross country, football, men’s and women’s golf, men’s and women’s indoor track and field, men’s and women’s lacrosse, men’s and women’s outdoor track and field, men’s and women’s soccer, softball, women’s swimming, men’s and women’s tennis, and women’s volleyball.
2015 WAGNER WOMEN’S LACROSSE
LIZ FRISOLI Head Coach SECOND SEASON Liz Frisoli enters her second season as the head coach of the Wagner College women’s lacrosse team after leading the 2014 Seahawks to the Northeast Conference (NEC) Championship Game for the first time in program history. Frisoli has been a driving force behind the revival of Wagner women’s lacrosse as the Seahawks look to continue their quest into becoming a NEC powerhouse. In her first season at the helm, Frisoli’s Seahawks won a school-record seven consecutive games during their drive to the NEC Title game, a mark that bettered the previous school-record six-game winning streak set in 2001. En route to their run to the championship game, the Green & White fashioned an11-7overall record, including a 6-1 (.857) league mark, that propelled Wagner to the No. 2 seed in the conference tournament. The .857 winning percentage in NEC play established a program record while the 11 victories tied the school record for single-season wins, equaling the 11 wins attained by the 2002 team that finished with an 11-6 mark. In the program’s first-ever NEC semifinal win, Wagner scored early and often against Robert Morris and never looked back, advancing to it first-ever NEC final with an emphatic 17-7 victory over the No. 3-seeded Colonials. This win also marked the first NEC Tournament win the 16 year-history of the Wagner women’s lacrosse program. Under Frisoli’s leadership, Wagner had a school-record five Seahawks earn All-Northeast Conference honors. Sophomore midfielder, Shea Gegan (Manasquan, NJ/Manasquan) was named Defensive Player of the Year, becoming the first student-athlete in program history to earn an individual honor. Gegan was also tabbed First-Team All-NEC, along with senior defender Caitlin Daly (Ridgewood, NJ/Ridgewood). Sophomore attackers Stephanie Peterson (Vernon, NJ/Vernon Township) and Kimmy Tumolo (Mullica Hill, NJ/Clearview) were named Second-Team AllNEC while freshman midfielder Olivia Streilein (Mt. Laurel, NJ/Lenape) earned a spot on the NEC All-Rookie Team. In addition to her head-coaching duties, Frisoli is the coordinator of the Seahawks’ defense, and in 2014 she oversaw a unit that ranked No. 1 in the nation in caused turnovers per game with a 13.39 average, boasted a No. 6 ranking in ground balls per game (19.61), while ranking No. 31 nationally in scoring defense, allowing their opponents an average of just 9.28 goals per game. Wagner also led the NEC in these three categories. Prior to arriving at Wagner College, Frisoli established a Division III program at Huntingdon College in Montgomery, AL. Frisoli spent the 2011-2012 academic year scouring the nation for talent, eventually landing 19 student-athletes from 13 different states. In her first season coaching for Huntingdon, Frisoli guided the Hawks to an 8-6 record in their inaugural season. Frisoli, who spent the 2011 season as an assistant coach at Curry College (MA), was a standout player in high school and college, as well as on the international level. At Winchester High School in her native Winchester, MA, Frisoli was team MVP and captain of both the Sachems’ lacrosse and field hockey teams. The talent that she possessed, and the passion which she displayed, caught the attention of recruiters from a host of colleges before electing to continue her studies and athletic career at the College of the Holy Cross, where she developed into a top defender. As a senior in 2005, Frisoli was named First-Team All-Patriot League and was the Patriot League’s runner-up for Defender of the Year. Frisoli went on to play for the 2005 South Australian lacrosse champion Glenelg Seahawks of Adelaide, Australia, playing alongside three 2005 FIL World Cup champions. Her lacrosse background also includes stints as director/coach of La Jolla (CA) Youth Lacrosse and as a marketing/sales associate for Adrenaline Lacrosse in San Diego. Frisoli also spent several years as a sports reporter and anchor for CBS television stations in Providence, Rhode Island, and Yuma, Arizona. Frisoli earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in English from Holy Cross in 2005 and a Master of Education degree from the University of Massachusetts-Boston in 2010.

Caitlin Fifield played an integral part in Wagner’s historic 2014 season that saw the Seahawks match the school-record of 11 wins while making their first-ever appearance in the Northeast Conference Championship Game. Embarking on her second year with the Seahawk program, Fifield has been given the added duties of recruiting coordinator. “Over the past year, Caitlin has proven herself to be an invaluable resource and she absolutely deserves this promotion. She is a tireless worker and her effort helped our team break Wagner lacrosse records this year,” said Frisoli. “Caitlin’s recruiting success makes it an obvious choice to expand her responsibilities to include the title of Recruiting Coordinator and I look forward to working with her and bringing in some big talent.” A North Babylon, NY resident, Fifield recently completed one of the finest careers in University of Richmond women’s lacrosse history. As a fifth-year senior midfielder in 2013, she was named to the prestigious Tewaaraton Watch List (Tewaarton Trophy is given annually to the most outstanding American college player), and earned Atlantic 10 First-Team All-Conference honors while leading the Spiders with 72 points and 24 assists, to go with 48 goals which was second on the team. An honor roll student who earned a degree in sociology in May, 2013, Fifield also had the distinction of being named to the 2013 Atlantic 10 All-Academic Team. In addition to her outstanding playing career, Fifield brought a solid coaching foundation with her to the Wagner program as she has served as a club coach and college camp counselor since 2008. Over the last five years, Fifield has served as head coach of the Long Island Elite Yellow Jackets’ Club Team where she gained experience administering practices, coordinating the offense and organizing activities. She has also served as a Youth Lacrosse Camp Counselor at several Division I summer camps throughout the nation, including Northwestern University, the University of Virginia, the University of Maryland, and Princeton University. Fifield was also a First-Team All-Atlantic 10 choice in 2012, a SecondTeam All-Atlantic 10 selection in 2011 and was a member of the 2009 All-Atlantic 10 Rookie Team, the same year that she was named to the 2009 Canadian Women’s Lacrosse active roster. She also finished fourth all-time in goals (174), seventh in assists (55), third in total points (229), ninth in single season points (72), and 10th in single season assists (24). In the summer of 2012, Fifield earned a spot on the Canadian National Team’s Top 34 Roster. At North Babylon High School, Fifield was a twotime US Lacrosse All-American and two-time Academic All-American.
Former Rutgers University standout Katrina Martinelli joined the Wagner women’s lacrosse coaching staff in June, 2014. A highlight of her stellar career at Rutgers came in 2013 when she earned All-BIG EAST Second-Team honors following a season that saw her record 45 points on 35 goals and 10 assists. During her 49-game career, the former attacker scored 70 points on the strength of 52 goals and 18 assists for the Scarlet Knights. She capped her outstanding collegiate career by being selected to the prestigious IWLCA NorthSouth All-Star Team where she competed on the North squad. In addition to her exceptional credentials as a former top collegiate and scholastic player, Martinelli also brings a coaching pedigree to Grymes Hill, having served as a coach for the South Jersey Select Lacrosse Club at many levels, ranging from grades 4-12. “Katrina is an outstanding up-and-coming coach and I am excited to welcome her energy, passion for coaching and lacrosse knowledge to our team,” said Wagner Head Women’s Lacrosse Coach Liz Frisoli. “She’s proven herself to be an amazing player during her career at Rutgers, and with her unwavering work ethic, is bound to make a positive impact on both ends of the field for our team,” Frisoli continued. “It was a priority for me to bring in a former attacker who could not only help out with our attack, but also work with our goaltenders and help raise their game to the next level,” Frisoli continued. “From our first conversation, I knew that Katrina was the right person for the job.” Martinelli is a native of Moorestown, NJ where she starred at Moorestown High School, one of the Garden State’s perennial high school powers. At Moorestown, she was a member of Quaker squads that won three State Championships, three Group III Championships, three Group III Central Sectional Championships and three Burlington County Division Championships from 2007-2009. She was a two-time All-American, in 2009 and 2010, and was the Quakers’ leading goal-scorer in 2009 when she found the back of the net 61 times. A First-Team All-State and All-South Jersey selection in 2009 and 2010, Martinelli was named Midfielder of the Year as a senior by the Women’s Lacrosse Club of South Jersey (WLCSJ). In addition to her duties with the Seahawk coaching staff, Martinelli is pursuing a masters of business administration.

2015 WAGNER WOMEN’S LACROSSE
Liz Frisoli - In Her Own Words On the eve of the 2015 season, the second-year head coach of the Seahawks, who
guided her squad to to the 2014 Northeast Conference (NEC) Championship Game, sat down with Wagner Athletics to discuss her team, coaching staff, as well as the upcoming campaign. Liz Frisoli On .... ...The Most Defining Moment of the 2014 Season “I think the most defining moment from last season was our Jacksonville game. All year long, I had been driving home the idea of working your hardest all day, every day - and it finally clicked. Jacksonville was ranked over 50 places ahead of us and pregame, one of the Jacksonville coaches had been quoted as saying he was excited to put in his second and third string... They had to keep in their starters the entire game and it was only a five-goal game. A loss is a loss, but that was the day that the girls realized their potential and finally began to play like the team I knew they could be. ...The Most Memorable Moment from Last Season “My most memorable moment from last season was beating Robert Morris in the first round of the NEC tournament. Robert Morris is a great team, and it’s hard to beat the same team twice. We came out firing and looked better than we had all year. It was the best performance as a team all season, and the win made Wagner Lacrosse history”. …The Impact of the 2014 Season on the Seahawk Program both from a team and recruiting perspective “Recruiting wise, it is much easier to recruit to a history-making and winning program!” ...The Greatest Lessons the Team Learned from Last Season “Hard work beats talent, when talent doesn’t work hard.” This is true in all aspects of our team: from the games we play, to the starting 12 every game. I put the 12 hardest-working girls on the field, and when we play as a team and out-work our opponent, we win.” …The Team Now having to Potentially Deal with Higher Expectations after Last Season’s Success “I love the higher expectations. Being an underdog is fun, but it gets old. When you’re in the front and teams are chasing you, it pushes you to be better than your best, every day. The NEC has higher expectations for us this season, and I welcome the challenge.”
2015 WAGNER WOMEN’S LACROSSE
…How similar or dissimilar the team will look on the field this season “When the girls stepped on the field in August, we looked better than we did in May. That was EXACTLY what I requested from my girls in their summer workout, and they delivered. We truly get better every day. Our roster might look similar, but we are a different team than last year: we are a better team than last year. “ …The Non-Conference Games that Comprise the 2015 Schedule. “We have stacked our non-conference schedule with teams from strong conferences such as the Patriot league, Atlantic 10 and the MAAC. These will be tough games, but any team can beat any other team on any given day. ” …The competition for this season’s NEC Title “I have a lot of respect for our NEC competitors. The competition is going to be very strong this season. Our plan is to focus on one game at a time to get to where we want to be in May.” …Goals and Aspirations for this year’s Team “Our team goal is to win the NEC’s. Last year, I put the phrase, “WIN NEC’s!” in the girls’ lockers. It was so crazy, when I got here, they didn’t even believe that was an attainable goal. This year, we are coming into the season with the knowledge that an NEC championship is 100% attainable. We just have to put in the work to get it. ” …What makes 2014 Defensive Player of the Year Shea Gegan, who led the NCAA in caused turnovers per game a season ago, such a tremendous player. “Shea was a great player last year and has continued to grow. You can’t coach that kind of athleticism, but we are absolutely challenging her and teaching her to be a more dynamic player. Shea has become a smarter, more productive and powerful midfielder this year.” …What other Seahawks are expected to do great things in 2015 “I have high expectations for everyone on this team, especially our returners. My six freshmen are absolute competitors and they have meshed very well with the 19 returners. My starting lineup and depth chart change daily. We have 25 girls fighting for 12 starting spots and it’s really exciting. I would be confident starting each and every one of my players. I have some tough decisions to make! I cannot wait to open our season at Bucknell.”
