PROVIDENCE FRIARS

COACHING STAFF

CHRIS HEAD COACH GABRIELLI Chris Gabrielli was hired as the eighth head coach in the history of the Providence College men’s lacrosse program on June 21, 2012 and is embarking on his ninth season with the team in 2020-21.

During his time at Providence College, he has helped develop and mentor 10 players who have gone on to play professionally, including Jarrod Neumann ’17 and James Barclay ’18, who play in the Premier Lacrosse League (PLL). Neumann, who earned USILA All-America honors and BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Year recognition at Providence, was selected to play in the PLL’s inaugural All-Star Game (2019). As part of the All-Star weekend festivities, he also won the league’s fastest shot skills challenge, clocking a speed of 115 miles per hour.

Neumann helped guide Chaos LC to the No. 1 seed in the 2019 PLL Playoffs. Barclay, an AllBIG EAST First-Team selection for the Friars, was signed by Whipsnakes LC, midseason, and helped his squad claim the No. 2 seed in the 2019 PLL Playoffs.

Under Gabrielli’s guidance, the program has boasted 17 All-BIG EAST selections, one BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Year, three BIG EAST Goalkeeper of the Year awards, nine preseason All-BIG EAST picks and eight All-New England honorees.

Gabrielli’s teams have excelled in the classroom and the program has featured a total of 201 BIG EAST Academic All-Stars. A program-record 34 Providence College men’s lacrosse players were named to the 2018 and 2020 BIG EAST All-Academic Team. The Friars have had 25+ BIG EAST All-Academic Team members in each of the last four seasons (2017, 2018, 2019, 2020).

The Friars in 2020 went 5-1 before the season ended due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Providence claimed the Ocean State Cup after defeating Brown (13-12, OT) and Bryant (169), marking the second time in three years. The Friars ranked first in man-down defense (.938) and third in the scoring defense (8.00) in the nation.

During the 2019 season, the Friars secured a spot in the BIG EAST Conference Men’s Lacrosse Championship for the third time in the last four seasons. The Friars claimed the No. 3 seed on the final day of regular-season action, as they defeated 17th-ranked Villanova, 9-8, in overtime in Providence, R.I. The Friars fell to 17th-ranked and eventual BIG EAST Champion Georgetown in the semifinals of the conference tournament, 13-12. It marked the fourth time during the 2019 cam-paign that Providence College suffered a one-goal loss.

Goalkeeper Tate Boyce finished his career as one of the program’s most decorated players, earning USILA All-America Honorable Mention, BIG EAST Goalkeeper of the Year and FirstTeam All-BIG EAST accolades. He is the first player in program history to earn multiple AllAmerica honors and Goalkeeper of the Year recognition. Additionally, he is the only Friar to have earned First-Team All-BIG EAST status during each of his four years with the program.

Boyce is one of three players on the 2019 roster that went on to play professionally. Boyce and defenseman Jimmy Cunningham signed with the Boston Cannons (MLL), while attackman Brendan Kearns was drafted and signed by the New York Lizards (MLL).

Gabrielli came to Providence College after spending the previous six seasons as an assistant coach at Duke University, where he worked primarily with the Blue Devils’ defensive unit. He also served as the program’s recruiting coordinator, under the direction of current Duke Head Coach John Danowski.

While at Duke, Gabrielli helped guide the program to six NCAA Final Four appearances (2007-12) and two trips to the National Championship game (2007, 2010). The Blue Devils went on to win the National Championship in 2010. Duke also captured five ACC regularseason titles (2007-09, 2011-12) and four ACC Tournament titles (2007-09, 2012).

Under the watchful eye of Gabrielli, Duke’s defense consistently ranked among the best nationally. Annually one of the stingiest defenses in Division I lacrosse, Duke was among the top 10 in scoring defense in 2007 and 2008 and was among the top 25 every year under Gabrielli. In the 2010 NCAA finals, the Blue Devils held Notre Dame to just five goals in their 6-5

overtime victo-ry, tying for the second fewest goals allowed in a NCAA championship game.

During his six seasons with the Blue Devils, Gabrielli mentored seven players to 11 AllAmerica awards. Some of these players include Nick O’Hara, a first-team All-America choice and the 2008 William F. Schmeisser Award recipient as the national defenseman of the year, 2012 ACC Co-Defensive Player of the Year and four-time All-American CJ Costabile and 2008 ACC Rookie of the Year and two-time All-America selection Michael Manley. Four of Gabrielli’s former student-athletes currently suit up for Major League Lacrosse squads, including Manley who was picked third overall in this year’s MLL draft.

Gabrielli spent the 2006 season as an assistant coach at Butler where he served as the recruiting coordinator, while working primarily with the defense. Under his mentorship, three Butler de-fensemen earned All-GWLL honors.

Gabrielli was a member of the coaching staff at his alma mater, Massachusetts, from 2003-05, helping the Minutemen to a 33-13 overall record with two NCAA quarterfinal berths.

Gabrielli was a member of the practice squad for the Boston Cannons of Major League Lacrosse during the 2004 season before being drafted again by the Cannons in the 2005 Supplemental Draft. In 2004, he co-founded the Mid-Summer Classic, a high school lacrosse tournament currently held on the UMass campus.

A four-year letter winner as a defenseman at Massachusetts, Gabrielli picked up 127 ground balls and added five assists in his career. As a senior in 2001, he captained the Minutemen to a 12-2 overall record and a share of the ECAC Championship, while earning Second-Team All-Conference and First-Team All-New England honors. A two-time winner of the Eric Sopracasa “Heart and Soul Award,” an honor presented annually to the UMass player who displays the most leadership and dedication to the program, Gabrielli went on to play in the 2001 North-South All-Star game and the MLL Major League Challenge.

PROVIDENCE COLLEGE

Responding to the needs of Rhode Island, the Dominican Order of Preachers made a special commitment to the state in 1917 and founded Providence College — the only institution of higher learning in North America that is conducted by the Order.

Providence College’s rich heritage dates back to 1216, or the origins of the Dominican Order in Spain. Through the ages, the Dominican Friars became known as the “champions of the faith,” spreading the gospel message through the centuries into every corner of the globe. Today, Dominican Friars continue to spread the gospel in a wide range of remote areas of the world, to teach at every level of the United States educational system.

With the Dominican tradition as its foundation, Providence College focuses on developing the entire person through its values-oriented education. The college seeks to complement a student’s knowledge with knowledge of his/her own values — values that will remain the foundation for sound judgement throughout a lifetime.

To that end, Providence College aims to relate its curriculum to the problems of contemporary society, offering diverse programs of study that remain grounded in the liberal arts. Students may choose from some 60 concentrations ranging from computer science to labor relations to theatre arts.

In addition, qualified students who wish to structure a program not specifically provided under the regular concentrations may develop their own program with the approval of the dean of the college.

As part of the core curriculum, all students take a two-year, teamtaught course, Development of Western Civilization (DWC) which integrates the study of literature, philosophy, history and religious studies through the ages into a cohesive interdisciplinary unit.

Situated just on the fringe of downtown Providence, the College’s location enables students to have easy access to the many social, cultural, educational and recreational amenities of urban life - the Providence Public Library; entertainment at the Providence Performing Arts Center; sporting events, entertainment and trade shows at the Dunkin' Donuts Center and the Providence Convention Center, Providence Place Mall and dozens of fine restaurants. With several other major educational institutions located in Providence, the city has become a hub of collegiate activity.

THE MISSION OF THE COLLEGE Providence College is a primarily undergraduate, liberal arts, Catholic institu-

tion of higher education. Committed to fostering academic excellence through the sciences and humanities, the College provides a variety of opportunities for intellectual, social, moral and spiritual growth in a supportive environment.

ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT MISSION STATEMENT Our mission is to build champion citizens, scholars and athletes who will positively impact the world around them.

The College actively cultivates intellectual, spiritual, ethical and aesthetic values within the context of the Judaeo-Christian heritage. These values are nurtured by the unique tradition of the Dominican Order which emphasizes quality teaching and scholarship.

Providence College recognizes the unity of the human family that proceeds

from its one Creator. It therefore encourages the deepest respect for the essential dignity, freedom and equality of every person and welcomes qualified women and men from all religious, racial and ethnic backgrounds. Providence College prepares its students to be responsible and productive citizens to serve in their own society and the greater world community.

Robert G. Driscoll Jr., Athletic Director/Vice President Having completed his 19th season as Providence College’s Vice President and Athletics Director, Bob Driscoll has transformed and reinvigorated Providence College’s athletics program. He has established a vision of student-athlete success in the classroom and in the community while competing for championships. Driscoll maintains focus on leading, fostering and mentoring one of the nation’s most respected athletic programs. Over the past seven years, Driscoll has been the architect of one of the most successful eras in the history of Providence College athletics. The Friars continued their success during 2019-20, with the men’s soccer team advancing to the NCAA Third Round after posting a 16-7 overall record. It was the program’s fourth NCAA Tourmament bid in eight seasons under head coach Craig Stewart. The Men’s basketball team concluded the season as one of the hottest teams in the NCAA, winning its final six games with three coming against top-20 opponents. Abbey Wheeler of the women’s track and field team was named the USTFCCCA Northeast Region Women’s Indoor Track and Field Athlete of the Year after winning the 3,000 and 5,000-meter events at the BIG EAST Championships. Her mark in the 5,000-meter event qualified for the NCAA Championships.

Over the course of the last decade, Providence College has enjoyed sustained success in addition to capturing multiple championships beginning with the 2013 women’s cross country team claiming the College’s second NCAA title. It continued with the men’s basketball team winning the 2014 BIG EAST Tournament title and advancing to the NCAA Tournament in five-consecutive seasons from 201418. The men’s hockey team made two Frozen Four appearances and six-consecutive NCAA Tournaments, including its first NCAA Championship with a dramatic, come-from-behind win over Boston University on April 11, 2015 at the TD Garden. It marked the College’s third NCAA team title and its first in a men’s sport.

In 2020, Driscoll was recognized with the Division I-AAA Athletics Directors Association Builders’ Award. For the second time in his tenure, Driscoll was recognized as the Under Armour I-AAA Athletics Director of the Year at the 51st Annual National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) convention in June 2016. In June 2008, Driscoll also was named the 2007-08 Astro Turf Athletics Director of the Year for the Division I Northeast Region at the 43rd National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics Annual Convention.

The Friars also have excelled in the classroom, with Providence’s student-athletes combining for an average GPA of 3.37. After a school-record six Providence College athletic programs received Public Recognition Awards in 2014 as part of the NCAA Academic Progress Rate (APR) program, three Friar teams earned the honor in 2015 and two teams, women’s swimming & diving and women’s tennis, earned recognition awards in 2016 and 2017. In 2018 and 2019, five programs earned recognition awards. Multiple Friar teams have been honored in each of the 15 years the NCAA has given out the Public Recognition Awards. Aside from excelling in the classroom and competing for championships, Driscoll’s studentathletes are very active in the local community. Last year alone, Friar student-athletes combined for 3,245 hours of community service at 145 events serving 33 organizations. The economic impact of those hours totaled $82,525. Providence was named a runner-up for the 2018 NACDA Community Service Award, earning $5,000 to donate to local charities.

The Friars recently finished fifth overall in the NCAA Division I Team Works Community Service competition in 2020, with the volleyball, softball and lacrosse programs each finishing among the top-10 among their Division I counterparts in the sport specific standings.

One of the biggest impacts Driscoll has had on the Providence College Athletics Department, and the College as a whole, has been with facility development, construction and renovation. Construction of Chapey Field at Anderson Stadium was completed in 2015, where the men’s and women’s soccer and men’s lacrosse programs play. The college also built a new softball complex, known as Glay Field, in addition to building six tennis courts adjacent to Anderson Stadium. He also oversaw the 2013 renovation of Schneider Arena – home of the Friar men’s and women’s hockey teams.

In August 2018, construction was completed on the $35 million Ruane Friar Development Center — a men’s basketball training and recruiting facility. The 58,218 square foot Friar Ruane Development Center also houses the athletic department’s Innovation Lab – a state-of-the-art facility that is available to each of our 350+ NCAA Division I student-athletes.

The lab is part of the overall Sports Medicine Department, with a primary focus on rest and recovery.

Kicking off Driscoll’s vision for the improved athletic facilities footprint at Providence College, the Concannon Fitness Center, opened in August of 2007, adjacent to Lennon Family Field (Astroturf facility), which was completed in August 2005. A new Astroturf surface was installed on Lennon Family Field in the summer of 2017 in addition to a new videoboard in the summer of 2018.

Other facility upgrades that have highlighted Driscoll’s tenure include an $80-million renovation of the Dunkin’ Donuts Center, which serves as the home venue for Friars men’s basketball. The project was the result of Driscoll working strategically with lead officials in the City of Providence and the State of Rhode Island. The renovations enhanced the game-day experience by adding 20 luxury boxes, new seats, a video scoreboard, sound system, updated restaurant and concession stands, team store, locker rooms and new weight training/fitness areas. These renovations have enabled Providence College to serve as host for the First and Second Rounds of the 2010, 2016, and the future 2021 NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship.

Driscoll established the athletic fundraising philosophy and the Friars Athletic Fund, led by its fundraising and development staff, has been instrumental in making program upgrades possible. The athletic department has exceeded fundraising goals on a yearly basis, reaching $7-million in cash donations during the 2019-20 fiscal calendar. The additional revenue remains critical to building and supporting championship programs and providing the best opportunities to Providence College’s student-athletes. The funds Driscoll and his staff raise help directly support each of the College’s 19 NCAA Division I programs, the Friars Forever Fund and capital projects.

In 2019, he was named as the AD Representive for the BIG EAST Diversity and Inclusion Working Group. This group is tasked to review policies, initiatives and best practices among BIG EAST member institutions and other athletics conferences and develop strategies designed to enhance the athletics-related D&I efforts already underway on BIG EAST campuses.

In collaboration with the Office of Instituational Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, Driscoll helped create a position on campus: “Director of Training and Education for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.” This goal of this position is to strengthen and build upon the College’s efforts to cultivate policies, practices and structures that ensure an inclusive, equitable and hospitable environment for students, student-athletes, staff, trainers and coaches.

In the past, Driscoll has served as the President of the Division I-AAA Athletics Directors Association. He also has served as First Vice President and Second Vice President for the organization. Driscoll previously served on the NCAA Division I Management Council, the NCAA Ice Hockey Championship Committee (Chair 2010-11) and was the Chair of the BIG EAST Athletic Directors in 2011-12. Driscoll also was an NCAA Fellows Programs Executive Mentor. Currently, Driscoll serves on the BIG EAST Finance Committee with the league’s other presidents and also is a Chair for the Hockey East Board of Directors. Additionally, Driscoll represents the BIG EAST’s athletic directors on the Student-Athlete Advisory Council, serves as a mentor for the Division I-AAA mentoring program and serves on the Hockey East Television Negotiations and Marketing Committees.

Driscoll joined the Providence community after 14½ years in athletic administration at the University of California, Berkeley, culminating in serving as the Acting Executive Director for Intercollegiate Athletics and Recreational Sports.

Driscoll was hired at Cal as the Associate Athletic Director for Student Services, a position he held for five years. He then assumed the position of Executive Associate Athletic Director, at which point he was responsible for the administration of 27 varsity sports, a staff of 250 and a $36 million budget. Prior to coming to Providence, he served as the Acting Executive Director for Intercollegiate Athletics and Recreational Sports. During his tenure, Cal won over 20 national championships and competed in the Citrus, Copper, Alamo and Aloha Bowls.

The Bears also finished as high as 12th in the NACDA Directors’ Cup. Before arriving at Cal, Driscoll served six years (1981-87) as the Athletic Director and Chair of the Department of Physical Education, Recreation and Intramural Sports at Mills College in Oakland, Calif. Prior to Mills, Driscoll was Assistant Athletic Director and Head Baseball and Hockey Coach at Union College in Schenectady, N.Y. from 1977-81. Driscoll played hockey, where he was captain and team MVP for three-consecutive years, and baseball at Ithaca College (N.Y.). He received a Bachelor of Science degree in physical education in 1974 and his Master of Science in physical education/psychology of sports from Ithaca in 1975.

A native of West Concord, Mass., Driscoll was inducted into the inaugural class of Concord-Carlisle High School’s Athletic Hall of Fame (football, ice hockey and baseball) in 1993. He was also inducted into the 50th Anniversary Class of Ithaca College Athletic Hall of Fame in 2019. He and his wife Cathy have three grown children.

Prior to the Friars' game against Marquette on that day, there was a ribbon cutting ceremony. Bert's family also was presented with a gift honoring the late Helen Bert during a halftime ceremo-

ny. The event was attended by friends, family, administrators and faculty, along with the presence of countless alumni. The Helen Bert Student-Athlete Lounge provides an area for all varsity student-athletes to study in a quiet setting. During the 2008-09 academic year, the lounge was renovated and expanded.

THE BIG EAST CONFERENCE Through the first six years in its configuration of 10 outstanding and nationally acclaimed institutions, the BIG EAST Conference has established itself as one of the nation’s exceptional Conferences and a leader in collegiate athletics.

Dynamic leadership has been a staple of the BIG EAST throughout its history. The conference turned “40” on May, 29, 2019, and has always taken a proactive role on many fronts. The 2018-19 academic year proved no different.

The BIG EAST secured its agreement with Madison Square Garden to assure the league will play its men’s basketball tournament at the World’s Most Famous Arena for the next 10 years.

The University of Connecticut, a member of the conference from 1979 to 2013, was readmitted to the BIG EAST. UConn, which will begin competing in the league again in 2020-21, brings a rich history of academic and athletic excellence. The Huskies’ women’s basketball program won eight of its 11 national championships as a BIG EAST member. The men’s team won three national titles under the BIG EAST umbrella and an additional crown in 2014.

The BIG EAST Conference was chosen by USA Basketball to represent the United States at the 2019 Pan American Games in Lima, Peru. It marked the first time a team from a single Division l conference represented the U.S. in the sport of men’s basketball in Pan American Games competition. The team exceeded expectations by winning a bronze medal.

In the arena and on the playing fields, the BIG EAST has produced 11 national champions over the past six academic years. Six BIG EAST teams have captured national titles, including two in men’s basketball. BIG EAST student-athletes also have won national championships in five individual events.

In the classroom, a record 67 BIG EAST athletic programs were recognized in 2018-19 by the NCAA with Public Recognition Awards for outstanding academic achievement in the previous academic year. By percentage, Villanova led all schools nationally for a second straight year with 77 percent of its squads receiving recognition. BIG EAST schools also produced seven CoSIDA Academic All-Americans.

Val Ackerman, who previously served as founding President of the WNBA, President of USA Basketball and U.S. representative to the International Basketball Federation (FIBA), was named the BIG EAST’s fifth Commissioner in 2013. Under her leadership, the BIG EAST has maintained its reputation for achievement at the highest levels and has continued to be influential on the national collegiate landscape, with numerous conference and campus administrators currently serving on important NCAA committees. Ackerman is one of the few sports executives who has held leadership positions in both men’s and women’s sports at the collegiate, professional, national team and international level.

In 2013, the BIG EAST began a new era by returning to its basketball-centric heritage. The league’s 10 member schools—Butler University, Creighton University, DePaul University, Georgetown University, Marquette University, Providence College, St. John’s University, Seton Hall University, Villanova University, and Xavier University—adhere to an unwavering commitment to academic integrity, athletic excellence and community service.

In December of 2012, DePaul, Georgetown, Marquette, Providence, St. John’s, Seton Hall and Villanova, announced their intention to separate from the conference’s FBS football-playing schools and form an independent association. The seven schools reached an agreement to retain the BIG EAST name and assume the conference’s long-term pact with Madison Square Garden to host the BIG EAST Men’s Basketball Tournament. The schools also announced the addition of three distinguished institutions — Butler, Creighton and Xavier — and forged a landmark, longterm broadcast partnership with FOX Sports. The BIG EAST moved its headquarters from its original location in Providence, R.I., to midtown Manhattan in New York City. The new era officially began on July 1, 2013.

The BIG EAST has been lauded as a leader in innovative concepts, particularly television, and that reputation continues with the conference’s relationship with FOX Sports. The BIG EAST has enjoyed a successful multi-year partnership with FOX Sports and its national cable network FS1. FOX’s comprehensive coverage of BIG EAST men’s basketball includes the broadcast of all regularseason games on FOX, FS1, FS2 or FOX Regional Networks, as well as the BIG EAST Tournament at Madison Square Garden, college basketball’s longest-running postseason conference tourney held at the same venue.

BIG EAST institutions are located in seven of the nation’s 36 largest media markets, including New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Indianapolis, Milwaukee and Cincinnati.

FOX Sports platforms carry complete coverage of women’s basketball regular-season play and the BIG EAST Women’s Basketball Tournament. Every Olympic sport championship is also carried on a network or digital platform.

The BIG EAST has also increased the visibility of its school programs with the BIG EAST Digital Network (BEDN). In 2014-15, the league became the first collegiate conference to be hosted on the FOX Sports mobile platform. For the fifth straight year, BEDN aired 225 live events with an emphasis on women’s basketball, soccer and Olympic sport regular-season and championship events.

Founded in 1979 by Dave Gavitt, the former Providence men’s basketball coach and athletic director, the BIG EAST Conference became a reality in May of 1979. Providence, St. John’s, Georgetown, Syracuse, Seton Hall, Connecticut and Boston College formed the original seven-school alliance, and the conference became an immediate national power in men’s basketball. While the composition of the BIG EAST has evolved, the focus of its schools has not changed, reflecting a tradition of emphasizing academic strength and fair play.

To complement its athletic successes, the conference launched BIG EAST Serves in 2014 to align with the service missions of the member institutions. Initiatives housed under the BIG EAST Serves umbrella, the BIG EAST Career Consortium and the national partnership with the It’s On Us campaign against campus sexual assaults, reflect the conference’s commitment to developing the complete BIG EAST student-athlete and making a positive contribution to campus communities and the conference’s headquarters in New York. The BIG EAST annually hosts a Well Being Forum to help provide institutional personnel with information, insights and basic training so they can better support the mental and physical health of their student-athletes.

The BIG EAST and Commissioner Ackerman have taken a leadership role in Sport at the Service of Humanity, an initiative created by the Vatican’s Pontifical Council for Culture to focus on how sport and faith can drive positive social change. Ackerman was a delegate at the inaugural Vatican conference and has served on an advisory committee to develop the framework and content for the initiative.

The BIG EAST hosts Freshmen Fundamentals, a unique program designed to assist men’s basketball student-athletes in the transition from high school to college and the elite level of BIG EAST basketball. The league hosts Transition Game for women’s basketball, which assists women’s basketball student-athletes in the transition from college player to emerging professional on and off the court.

BIG EAST institutions boast high graduation rates for their student-athletes, and the league has always been able to boast that many of its best athletes are also its best students. Creighton volleyball’s Taryn Kloth and Marquette basketball’s Allazia Blockton were the conference nominees for the 2019 NCAA Woman of the Year award.

The conference, which crowns champions in 22 sports, had league teams earn a total of 18 NCAA team berths and 23 individual NCAA invitations in 2018-19. In men’s basketball, all 10 teams participated in the postseason for the first time in conference history. Men’s basketball teams have earned 32 NCAA invitations in six years, averaging 5.3 per season.

Current BIG EAST men’s basketball programs have enjoyed extraordinary success. Villanova has won NCAA Championships in 2018, 2016 and 1985. Georgetown and Marquette also have won the national title. Butler, DePaul, Providence, St. John’s and Seton Hall have all made the Final Four. The BIG EAST placed three men’s basketball teams in the 1985 Final Four — Georgetown, St. John’s and Villanova—the only time this has occurred in NCAA history. Over the past 16 years, Butler, Georgetown, Marquette and Villanova have reached the Final Four, with Villanova making three trips and Butler two. Xavier has advanced to the Elite Eight three times.

The BIG EAST has achieved recent success in other sports as well. A BIG EAST team has won the NCAA women’s cross country championship four of the last 10 years (Villanova twice, Providence and Georgetown once), with one runner-up finish (Providence). Creighton men’s soccer has advanced to the NCAA College Cup twice in the last six seasons and Providence made it in 2014.

Georgetown’s women’s soccer team reached the College Cup in 2018 and 2016. As an affiliate member in field hockey, Connecticut has won three national championships in six years. Denver, as affiliate member in men’s lacrosse, won the NCAA crown in 2015.

In the 40 years since the original league opened its doors, BIG EAST teams have won 41 national championships in eight different sports with 145 student-athletes winning individual national titles in the league’s history.
