Coaching Staff ALLISON COMITO

MOLLY LAMBERT

HEAD COACH FIFTH SEASON MARYLAND ‘02

ASSISTANT COACH FIFTH SEASON MARYLAND ‘04

Allison Comito enters her fifth season as head women’s lacrosse coach in 2010. The America East women’s lacrosse coach of the year in 2007, 12 different Seawolves have earned all-conference honors during Comito’s time. Following the 2009 season in which Stony Brook posted a 4-12 record, she spent the early part of the summer as an assistant coach with the inaugural Irish women’s lacrosse team at the World Cup in the Czech Republic. Comito, alongside Stony Brook great Kaitlin Leggio, guided Ireland to a 6-1 record and a fifth-place finish. Comito helped Stony Brook to a 9-6 record including wins over rivals Binghamton and Albany and the program’s first victory over Hofstra to cap the 2008 season. Five players earned all-conference honors including the selection of Leggio to the first team for the third straight year. The 2007 season was marked by unprecedented success as the team went 13-4 and won the conference’s regular season championship. Under Comito’s guidance, seven players were named to all-America East honors including Leggio’s selection as the Player of the Year. In 2006, Comito reshaped the Seawolves as interim head coach, going 9-9 in her first season and in doing so, guided Leggio to America East Rookie of the Year honors, a first in the program’s history. Prior to joining Stony Brook, Comito spent three years as a teaching assistant at the North Shore Middle School in Glen Head, N.Y., while serving as the varsity girls assistant coach. As a player, Comito enjoyed a standout career at the University of Maryland as one of its best players in school history. Comito amassed 176 goals and 89 assists in her four years at Maryland and is fourth all-time in goals scored. A two-time first-team AllAmerica and three-time All-Atlantic Coast Conference selection, Comito was part of four consecutive national championships at Maryland along with lacrosse greats Quinn Carney, Christie Jenkins and Jen Adams, arguably the best women’s lacrosse player ever. As a senior, she scored the game-winning goal with eight seconds left in double overtime to give the Terrapins a 14-13 win over Georgetown in front of 7,000 fans at Johns Hopkins in the national championship game.

Prior to Stony Brook, Lambert spent time playing lacrosse in South Australia and coached girls ages 14-17. She also spent each summer during her collegiate career working as an instructor at the All-American Lacrosse Camps. A defensive standout at the University of Maryland, Lambert was a three-year starter, playing in each game in 2003 and 2004. Lambert won an NCAA Championship in 2001 as a teammate of Comito. She also played alongside former Seawolf Kaitlin Leggio’s sister, Kristie. In her four years, Lambert scored 12 goals and had six assists, spending time at attack and midﬁeld and was team captain in 2004. Lambert graduated from Maryland in 2004 with a degree in family studies.

MAEGAN COSGROVE ASSISTANT COACH THIRD SEASON MANHATTAN ‘02 Maegan Cosgrove is in her third season as the Seawolves’ goalie coach. Cosgrove joined the women’s lacrosse team in 2008 and helped Jamie Carlson and Mickey Cahill combine for four straight wins to end that season. A 2002 graduate of Manhattan College with a degree in education, Cosgrove was a two-sport athlete for the Jaspers, playing soccer and lacrosse. She earned ﬁrst team all-MAAC honors and was the the conference’s lacrosse tournament MVP in 2000. After graduating from Manhattan, Cosgrove spent two seasons as an assistant coach at Salisbury University. While at Salisbury, Cosgrove earned a master’s degree in secondary education. Cosgrove then spent two years as a physical education teacher and lacrosse coach at The Benenden School in Kent, England. Currently a teacher at Sachem East High School, Cosgrove is an assistant women’s lacrosse at the school as well.

Prior to graduating from Maryland in July of 2002 with a degree in sociology, Comito served as an undergraduate assistant at her alma mater, creating offensive plays, one-on-one sessions with players and coordinating team travel.

Molly Lambert is in her ﬁfth season as assistant coach in 2010. Working with the midﬁeld and defense, Lambert has helped establish a defensive mentality as Stony Brook has consistenly been one of the nation’s leaders in ground balls per game, ranking third in 2008. In 2007, she helped goalie Jen Sandtorv to a .515 save percentage good for 10th in the country.

Season Outlook and Matte,” Comito said. We believe they have a lot of potential and expect them to make strong contributions.” With the graduation of practically all of its midfielders, much of the scoring punch will come from juniors Courtney Bertolone (Farmingville, N.Y.), Victoria Cable (Oakton, Va.) and Melissa Cook (Bay Shore, N.Y.). Bertolone will move from attack to midfield this year to make up for some of the losses to graduation. Cook’s 33 points (18g, 15a) make her the team’s leading returning scorer and Bertolone and Cable enter 2010 after scoring 15 goals apiece as Trish Molfetta sophomores. Hughes could also see time in the midfield as a complement to Cook, Bertolone and Cable. Freshmen Jessica Romano (Massapequa, N.Y.) and Justyne Passarelli (Glen Head, N.Y.), both tremendous athletes, could each make huge impacts as midfielders from the start. Romano Kelley Sweeney bolsters the offense from the position and Passarelli could be a defensive plus. Unlike the attack and midfield positions, the Seawolves return the majority of their defense. Senior Kelley Sweeney (Bay Shore, N.Y.), who started all 14 games she played in, is one of two seniors on the roster joining Bridgid Callahan (Hanover, Md.). Juniors Trish Molfetta (Carmel, N.Y.) and Cori Kennedy (North Babylon, N.Y.), by far, have the most game experience on the defensive unit. Both started all 16 games and will continue to be the defensive stoppers. Along with the defensive unit, both goalies from a year ago return. Junior Mickey Cahill (Bay Shore, N.Y.) gained a ton of experience as the primary netminder in 2009. Healthy after missing most of last year with an illness, junior Jamie Carlson (Glen Cove, N.Y.) will challenge Cahill for playing time.

When the Stony Brook women’s lacrosse team opens the season against Colgate on February 13, to say it will look different would be understatement. Four-year starters Kaitlin Leggio ‘09, Jenna Spenard ‘09 and Amy Hallion ‘09 graduated as did Jenna Celano ‘09 and Kim Wodiska ‘09. So what’s to be expected from the Seawolves in 2010? A talented core of upperclassmen mixed in with the largest recruiting class in head coach Allison Comito’s tenure could steer Stony Brook back to its winning ways. Despite the loss of attackers, Celano and Wodiska, SBU has its second-leading scorer from a year ago, junior Samantha Djaha (East Islip, N.Y.), returning. Djaha Samantha Djaha scored 23 goals and has 49 in two years. Comito expects Djaha to continue to be one of the Seawolves’ top scorers this year and will have to pick up even more of the scoring punch. A pair of sophomores, Abby Ford (Baltimore, Md.) and Jackie Hughes (Rockville Centre, N.Y.), will be key ingredients. Both players saw significant action as freshmen and will be counted on to aid in the Seawolves’ offensive attack. “Abby has a really good eye for attack, and if she plays up to her potential, she could be vital for setting up quality scoring opportunities,” Comito said. Junior Abby Juliani (Jenkintown, Pa.), who has seen limited action in her first two years, could also see time. Freshman Kerry Kresse (Setauket, N.Y.), a local product from Ward Melville, could be one of five newcomers to see time immediately. “Kerry is a strong low attacker who can fill in as the feeder we really haven’t had since Carlee Buck,” Comito said. Comito also points to freshmen Kaitlyn Harrison (West Babylon, N.Y.) and Matte Scully (Huntington, N.Y.) as potential contributors at attack. Harrison joins the Seawolves after Melissa Cook earning Academic All-American and all-Suffolk County honors as a junior and senior. Scully, a strong two-way player for Huntington, adds a lot of athleticism. “I have high expectations for Katie

About America East... Now in its third decade of operation, America East has evolved into one of the most comprehensive NCAA Division I conferences with a commitment to broad-based, competitive athletics programs, complementing the academic integrity and missions of the member institutions. Progressive in its approach to its more than 3,200 studentathletes, America East recognizes champions in each of its 20 sports: baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, field hockey, 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, men’s and women’s swimming and diving, men’s and women’s tennis, and women’s volleyball. America East also conducts the nation’s most comprehensive academic recognition program for student-athletes. With a geographic footprint covering the Mid-Atlantic to Northeast regions of the United States, America East strives to develop champions in academics, athletics and leadership at its nine member institutions: University at Albany, Binghamton University, Boston University, University of Hartford, University of Maine, UMBC, University of New Hampshire, Stony Brook University and University of Vermont. Athletic Success... Boston University won the Stuart P. Haskell, Jr. Commissioner’s Cup for the fourth straight year and seventh time in the last eight seasons after capturing a conference-best seven championships, four regular-season titles and four runner-up finishes during the 2008-09 season. Nineteen America East student-athletes earned All-America recognition, including one in men’s basketball, one in men’s soccer, six in men’s lacrosse, four in women’s lacrosse and nine in cross country/track & field.

America East’s 3,200 student-athletes registered a combined 3.05 GPA during the 2008-09 academic year, and over 60 percent of them were named to America East’s Academic Honor Roll for recording a GPA of 3.0 or better.

Nineteen America East teams were publicly recognized by the NCAA for their multiyear Academic Progress Rate (APR), finishing among the top 10 percent of teams in the nation, with nine programs receiving perfect scores of 1000. Leadership University of Vermont women’s lacrosse standout Kristen Millar was selected the 2009 America East Woman of the Year for a distinguished career in the areas of academic achievement, athletics excellence, service and leadership. Hartford tennis player Rich Leiberman and the Maine softball team were named the America East Male and Female Sportsmanship Award winners. University at Albany appointed George M.

Current women’s basketball coaches Jennifer Rizzotti (Hartford) and Cindy Blodgett (Maine) have appeared in WNBA action. Carlos Pena, the 1998 Baseball Scholar-Athlete at Northeastern, has made an impact each of the past three seasons in Tampa Bay, earning American League Comeback Player of the Year honors in 2007, winning an American League Gold Glove at first base in 2008 and making his first All-Star appearance in 2009, while the Minnesota Twins’ Joe Nathan, a former Academic All-American at Stony Brook, played in his fourth Mid-Summer Classic.

Director of Athletics Jim

FIORE

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS 7TH YEAR B.A. - Hofstra University M.A. - Springﬁeld College

2010 STONY BROOK SEAWOLVES WOMEN’S LACROSSE • 31

GOSEAWOLVES.ORG

On July 23, 2003, President Shirley Strum Kenny introduced Jim Fiore as the ninth Director of Athletics in Stony Brook University history, stating “Jim has the energy, drive, enthusiasm and intelligence to take this program, in the tradition of Stony Brook, very far, very fast.” At the time of his hire Fiore was one of the youngest Directors of Athletics in NCAA Division I. Since his arrival at Stony Brook from Princeton University in August 2003, Fiore has pointed Stony Brook on an aggressive course for success in all aspects of intercollegiate athletics. He has undertaken a major restructuring of the intercollegiate athletics program, including the hiring of new coaching and administrative staff, dramatic facility upgrades and improved revenue generation. Fiore’s vision for Stony Brook athletics has resulted in unprecedented growth for the program. After its championship season in 2005, the football program was elevated to the NCAA I-AA scholarship level, and in April 2006, Fiore announced that the program would upgrade to Independent status for the 2007 season and accepted an invitation into the Big South Conference as an associate member for football only. In doing so, he has ensured the long-term future of Stony Brook football, enabling it to eventually compete for a national championship alongside institutions with similar academic and athletic standards. In addition, his dynamic imaging and branding campaign has given Stony Brook athletics a national scope. During the 2005-2006 academic year, Stony Brook inked a television deal with Madison Square Garden (MSG) Network to broadcast a multi-game package during the 2006-2007 academic year, the first television deal in the program’s history. In January 2006, the department also launched The Stony Brook Sports Report, a 30-week television show that is produced on campus and aired nationally on CSTV. Fiore also spearheaded the bid that resulted in Stony Brook being awarded the opportunity to host the NCAA Division I men’s lacrosse north quarterfinals in May 2006. Fiore’s grand design has produced dramatic results and a series of firsts for Stony Brook. In 2004, the baseball team won its first America East title and went to the NCAA Tournament. In the fall of 2005, the football program secured its first-ever conference title in its Division I history. On the same day that the football team won a championship, the men’s soccer team capped its regular-season title by capturing its first America East Tournament crown to earn an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. The men’s soccer team went on to notch Stony Brook’s first NCAA playoff victory with a first-round win over Yale. Success continued during the winter months as the women’s basketball team put together the second-best turnaround in Division I, going from 8-20 in 2004-2005 to a 20-10 mark in 2005-2006. Along the way, the team defeated nationally-ranked Temple en route to receiving the program’s first postseason bid, a trip to the 2006 WNIT. In the spring of 2005, the men’s lacrosse team garnered its first-ever Top 20 ranking in the 16-year history of the program and is now regularly ranked in the top-20. Under Fiore’s leadership, Stony Brook won its first Division I conference championships in women’s sports in 2007 as the women’s lacrosse, cross country and volleyball teams all won titles. Fiore also has turned his attention to department-wide fundraising efforts, with his efforts resulting in an increase of more than 55 percent in both annual giving revenue and number of donors. In an effort to take a lead role in the university’s $300 million capital campaign, the Department of Athletics has secured several major gifts, two of which were the largest philanthropic gifts given to athletics in its history. In July 2005, Fiore hired a Senior Associate Director of Athletics for External Services & Advancement and adopted a new philosophy for the annual Providing Athletes With Support (P.A.W.S.) fundraising campaign, a philosophy that streamlined the annual fundraising process to prepare Stony Brook to exceed all fundraising expectations in the future. In addition, he created the Athletic Director Advisory Council, a 19-member board comprised of Stony Brook alumni, staff and community members that will advise Fiore in the fundraising advancement process. His attention to the bottom line resulted in a new athletic department budget process that relieved the department of an annual systemic deficit, resulting in a balanced budget for the 2004-2005 academic year, the first time that Stony Brook realized that goal since moving to the Division I level. Fiore has seen the department balance its budget every year since and has overseen a budget growth from $9 million to $14 million. Beginning in the ‘04-’05 academic year, Stony Brook University athletics realized a near 20 percent increase in its operating budget due to new revenue streams for the department. Additionally, Stony Brook has teamed with Islanders Media Inc. as the athletic department continues to nurture and foster strong bonds with the Long Island corporate community. Fiore has secured $30 million from New York State for athletic facility renovations to the Stony Brook University Basketball Arena, Kenneth P. LaValle Stadium and various other athletic facilities. In December 2003, Stony Brook retained HOK, the premier

sports architectural firm in the nation, to formulate and develop a master plan for the future of Stony Brook athletic facilities. The blueprint already has begun to take hold: The baseball/softball complex received a facelift with the addition of new bleachers and press boxes, the strength and conditioning facility was renovated and expanded and the Kenneth P. LaValle Stadium is going to have a $6 million expansion that will include increasing seating by 2,000 and new Club and V.I.P. seating. Additionally a $20 million renovation of the Stony Brook University Basketball Arena will commence in Spring 2008 as well as a $1.2 million renovation to the Pritchard Gymnasium complex. The football, men’s lacrosse, women’s lacrosse and visiting team locker rooms in LaValle Stadium recently were redesigned and enhanced for $1,000,000. Under Fiore’s leadership, Stony Brook student-athletes also have attained new levels of achievement in the classroom. Since his arrival the GPA for student-athletes has risen from 2.86 in 2003 to 3.11 in the fall of 2007. The ‘07-’08 academic year proved to be Stony Brook’s most successful season academically as its student-athletes compiled a department best overall G.P.A. of 3.06 and saw 339 student-athletes named to the America East honor roll - the most since the university joined the America East in 2001. In the fall of 2007, 15 of 20 teams earned team GPAs above 3.0 and 71 percent of Stony Brook’s student-athletes were named to the America East Honor Roll or the America East Commissioner’s Honor Roll for earning above a 3.0 or 3.5 GPA, respectively. Coinciding with this success, Stony Brook unveiled the new Goldstein Student-Athlete Development Center in the spring of 2006, a center made possible through a $1.2 million gift from Stony Brook alum and former All-American squash player Stuart Goldstein ‘74. The 6,000-square-foot state-of-the-art facility can accommodate more than 400 student-athletes and features a computer lab, a study hall/multipurpose function room, a career resource/library area and several private tutor rooms. During his tenure, Fiore also has guided Stony Brook through the essential and formative NCAA Certification process, helped redesign the athletic logo and athletic website, developed a new comprehensive student-athlete exit survey and head coach performance evaluation instrument, implemented mandatory drug testing, and unveiled an athletic department strategic plan through 2011. Fiore also has instituted a “Book of the Year” program for coaches and staff that highlights important topics relevant to professional and personal development, culminating with the author’s visit to campus and discussion with the entire staff. In the fall of 2004, Fiore implemented a Minority Apprentice program to assist in the development of young professionals in intercollegiate athletics. His list of accomplishments has not gone unnoticed. In December 2007 Fiore was named the Sports Man of the Year by The Village Times Herald and in the fall of 2004, he was recognized by the Long Island Business Association as one of the Top 40 executives under the age of 40 on Long Island. Fiore currently serves on University President Shirley Strum Kenny’s Cabinet and also was appointed by Kenny to co-chair the strategic plan for image and identity committee. He also has served on the honorary degree, weekend life, NCAA certification and the university sponsorship committees. In 2005 he was appointed to the Executive Committee of the America East Conference and currently serves as the Chairman of the group. Fiore also is a member of the NCAA Division I Championships/Sports Management Cabinet and the NCAA Division I Misconduct Appeals Sub-committee. Recently, he was named to the Dowling College Sports Management Board of Directors. In June 2004, Fiore was a featured speaker at the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) convention in Dallas, Texas. From 1999-2003, he provided department-wide leadership in support of the director of athletics at Princeton University, a program that supports 38 sports, 40 club sports programs and more than 1,000 student-athletes. A member of the senior management team, he was responsible for all athletic programming oversight of all varsity intercollegiate programs. In addition, Fiore directed all personnel matters, including the coordination of national searches for coaches, staff and administrative positions. Along with the director of athletics, he assisted in the planning for short and long-term capital improvements. During Fiore’s tenure, Princeton achieved extraordinary success on the fields of play and in the classroom. Princeton finished among the Top 25 in the Director’s Cup standings in three of the four years he was there and is the only non-scholarship institution ever to finish in the Top 25. From 1999-2003, Princeton teams won 60 Ivy League championships and nine national championships. From 1995-1998, Fiore was the Assistant Director of Athletics for Intercollegiate Programming at Dartmouth College, where he assisted with the daily operation and supervision of Dartmouth’s comprehensive 34-sport program. Before Dartmouth, Fiore interned at Princeton (1994-1995) for one year, during which he assisted the director of athletics on assigned projects. He began his career as a graduate assistant at Springfield College before moving on to be an assistant to the Executive Director of the National Invitation Tournament during the spring and summer of 1993. One year later, he took an internship in the compliance office at Fordham University. A native of Long Beach, N.Y, Fiore graduated from Long Beach High School and went on to earn his Bachelor of Arts degree from Hofstra University, where he played free safety for the football team. Upon graduation from Hofstra, Fiore earned a master’s degree in education from Springfield College. Additionally, he received a certificate from The Sports Management Institute held at the University of Notre Dame and University of South Carolina. Fiore and his wife, Lisa, have a son, Michael, who is 7 years old. They reside in Stony Brook.
