- 2012 Northeast Conference Coach of the Year Andrew McMinn enters his fourth season as head coach at Robert Morris University. McMinn has been at RMU for 10 seasons now, beginning his tenure as an associate head coach during the program’s second season in 2006. In 2014, McMinn had six players earn All-Northeast Conference recognition and saw his team finish the season third in caused turnovers per game with a mark of 10.14. The Colonials accomplished a handful of firsts in McMinn’s second season at the helm, finishing an overall record of 8-7 and a mark of 3-2 in conference play. RMU defeated Quinnipiac in the NEC Tournament semifinals, 15-14, for the program’s first postseason win. The victory also pushed the Colonials through to their first NEC Tournament championship game. In his first season as a collegiate head coach, McMinn continued the rapid rise of the RMU’s men’s lacrosse program. He led Robert Morris to a program-record 11 wins in just 15 games, including posting a perfect 5-0 record in league play. As a result, the Colonials claimed the NEC regular-season crown, the first conference title of any kind for the men’s lacrosse program. RMU has also been in the national conversation under McMinn. Robert Morris used a sixgame winning streak to earn a national ranking for the second time in program history in 2012 as it entered the Nike/Inside Lacrosse Media Poll in April. The Colonials also posted multiple wins over nationally ranked teams in 2012, the first such occurrence in school history, including a 9-7 victory at Ohio State in March. Prior to being named head coach, McMinn had previously as the associate head coach for the Colonials. He had served on the Robert Morris staff for six seasons, helping RMU develop from its earliest stages as a program to one that had secured three consecutive winning seasons and a national ranking along with its first postseason berth in the two years prior to his appointment as head coach. McMinn progressively earned additional responsibilities within the Colonial program the years leading up to his appointment, including aiding in the hiring and management of other staff members and overseeing certain budgetary matters. He also represented Robert Morris as a speaker at the USILA national convention in December 2009, where he led a presentation on transition offense. Before joining the Colonials’ coaching staff, McMinn was a standout goaltender for the Providence Friars of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC). In three seasons as the starting goaltender, he helped lead his team to two regular-season championships, a MAAC Tournament Championship and a berth in the 2004 NCAA Tournament. He was a three-time All-MAAC selection, a 2004 MAAC All-Tournament Team honoree, and he held the top two single-season goals against average marks in MAAC history at the time of his graduation. During his career, he ranked among the top goaltenders in Division I in both save percentage and goals against average. He ranked fourth nationally in GAA in 2003, allowing just 6.91 tallies per game, and was seventh nationally in save percentage in 2005 with a .599 mark. McMinn earned his Bachelor’s degree in management with a minor in finance from Providence in 2005. He just completed his Master’s degree in instructional leadership with a concentration in sport management from Robert Morris in 2014.
