T I M L E O N A R D, D I R E C T O R O F AT H L E T I C S Tim Leonard is in his eighth year as Towson University’s Director of Athletics. Leonard, joined the Towson staff in the fall of 2013 after serving as the senior associate athletics director for external affairs at Southern Methodist University (SMU). Leonard is a member of the NCAA Division I Men’s Lacrosse Committee as the Southeast Region representative and served as its chair for the 2019-20 season. During Leonard’s tenure, Towson has seen strong success in all aspects as an athletic department, including on the field, in the classroom and in the community. Towson was the Fall 2018 NCAA Teamworks National Champion in community service with 5,583 hours in the Greater Baltimore area from September to November. During his tenure, several Towson teams have won conference tournament titles in the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) or Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC): women’s basketball, women’s indoor track, men’s lacrosse, women’s lacrosse, women’s swimming & diving and volleyball. By Spring 2020, 18 of 19 Towson teams held a 3.0 or higher cumulative grade point average. Towson facilities have seen major improvement during Leonard’s time at Towson, including the construction of the Lower Fields Complex, which has Tiger Stadium, the Tiger Softball Complex and the TU Field Hockey Complex. In addition, Johnny Unitas® Stadium, SECU Arena and John B. Schuerholz Park saw major upgrades to make Towson one of the premier mid-major athletic complexes in the country. In 2019-20, the COVID-19 pandemic affected all NCAA sports, yet Towson still saw strong success as a department. The volleyball team saw one of its best seasons in program history, winning an NCAA Tournament victory over Patriot League champion American after a perfect 16-0 CAA regular season and CAA Tournament championship, going 29-3 and never getting swept. Marrisa Wonders earned CAA Player of the Year and All-America honors from VolleyMag. In addition, the indoor track team won its first-ever ECAC Tournament, defeating 40

other teams up and down the East Coast with 63 points. Lauren Coleman earned All-America honors in the shot put, the first All-American under coach Mike Jackson. Yeedee Thaenrat of the football team was a recipient of the John Randolph Inspiration Award after coming from war-torn Liberia when he was five years old, the second year in a row a Towson student-athlete has received the CAA’s Randolph Award. Men’s basketball, women’s basketball and football all finished in the top-four of the CAA, including football being nationally ranked all season and winning its first-ever regular season matchup between two top-10 teams with a 45-23 victory at No. 5 Maine. Prior to Towson, Leonard served as senior associate athletic director at SMU. He was also the Mustangs’ interim director of athletics from May to August, 2012. Leonard joined the staff at SMU after serving in a series of increasingly responsible positions at the University of Central Florida (UCF). He began as an assistant AD for development before moving up to assistant AD for external operations. Leonard’s final promotion at UCF saw him become the assistant vice president for athletics development and associate athletics director. Leonard’s athletics administration career also includes stops as Boise State’s assistant director of the Bronco Athletic Association and the director of annual giving at Illinois State. He is a member of the National Association of Athletic Development Directors (NAADD) and was the 2012 recipient of the NAADD Athletic Fundraiser of the Year award. In addition to his affiliation with NAADD, he is also a member of the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA), the Council for the Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) and the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP). He is also currently a member of the NCAA men’s lacrosse committee. Leonard earned his bachelor’s degree in communications from Boise State. The Twin Falls, Idaho native and his wife, Monica, have two children, Hayley and Nathan.

MINNEGAN FIELD AT JOHNNY UNITAS ® STADIUM Minnegan Field at Johnny Unitas® Stadium is home to Towson’s football, men’s lacrosse and track and field programs. The sports complex, which underwent a $32 million renovation over a three-year span, seats 11,198 spectators. It ranks as the third-largest outdoor venue in the metropolitan area, behind M&T Bank Stadium where the NFL’s Baltimore Ravens play and Oriole Park at Camden Yards, home of the Baltimore Orioles. Stadium renovations included an addition of 6,000 seats, an artificial turf, entry level plaza, concession stands, new restrooms, ticket booths, a four-tier press box, an elaborate field house and a promenade that conveniently connects the northside and southside seating areas. In addition, a new FieldTurf Revolution playing surface was added during the summer of 2020. The four-story, 48,000 square-foot field house provides Towson’s student-athletes with an excellent collegiate facility. It includes spacious, modern lockerooms for each of its sports, an impressive athletic training facility, classrooms, conference rooms, an upscale equipment room, an academic resource center, a video-editing room and coaches offices. The stadium is lighted for night play. A four-level press box rises high above the stadium on its south side.Each booth can comfortably seat six persons. The top floor, or camera deck, is the primary location for television broadcasts and game filming. The complex is named in honor of two legends - one a coach and educator who served Towson University for over 40 years, and the other a former professional football player who is widely considered as the greatest NFL quarterback of all time. Donald “Doc” Minnegan was a teacher, coach, physical education department chairman and Director of Athletics at Towson for more than four decades. He arrived at Towson in 1927 and coached its soccer team until 1966. Doc’s soccer teams were highly success-

8 2 0 2 1 T I G E R L A C R O S S E G A M E D AY

ful, winning a total of 156 games, and 66 of 77 between 1930 and 1936, including a school record 34 straight. His coaching led to Towson championships in baseball, basketball, track and swimming, as well as soccer. Doc, who died in 2002, just two weeks shy of his 100th birthday, was inducted into the National Soccer Coaches Association of America’s Hall of Fame in 1992. During his tenure as Director of Athletics, Doc established football as an intercollegiate sport at Towson in 1969. The stadium carried his name from its opening in 1978 until the renovation. In accordance with that tribute, the field remains Minnegan Field in his memory. Johnny Unitas, too, had a deep connection with the University. The former Baltimore Colts great was the parent of three Towson students. Several weeks prior to his untimely passing, Johnny began serving as community liaison for Tiger Athletics. His role was to assist the university in obtaining a naming rights partner for the University’s new stadium. The legendary Golden Arm died suddenly, less than a week after tossing his last pass to commemorate the opening of Towson’s new stadium at ceremonies on September 5, 2002. High spirits returned when Sandy Unitas chose to assume her husband’s role with Towson. With Johnny’s two youngest children as Towson students, Sandy sought to memorialize her husband’s legacy by having the stadium named Johnny Unitas® Stadium.

MEN’S COACH SHAWN NADELEN Now in his 10th season at the helm of the program, Shawn Nadelen has the Towson men’s lacrosse team poised to continue dominance in the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA). The only thing to keep Nadelen’s Tigers from the CAA Tournament since he took over the program was the COVID-19 Pandemic. During the 2019 season, Nadelen and the Tigers made their fifth-straight appearance in the CAA Championship game, winning the CAA Tournament and hosting a first-round game of the 2019 NCAA Tournament.During the 2017 campaign, Towson reached NCAA Championship Weekend for the first time since the 2001 campaign, beating #8 Penn State and #2 Syracuse along the way. Since Nadelen took over the program, Towson has amassed an overall record of 83-50 (.624). During the 2016 CAA Tournament, Nadelen became the fastest coach to win 50 Division I games at Towson and is the second-fastest to the mark including the program’s Division II days. He became just the second coach in the program’s history to be named CAA Coach of the Year, winning the honor in 2016. After earning a berth to the 2016 NCAA Tournament as the CAA champion, the Tigers knocked off defending national champion and secondranked Denver in the first round, 10-9 win in the Mile High City. That victory set a new singleseason program record as Towson won its 16th game. During that same season, Towson won a program-record 11 games from the friendly confines of Johnny Unitas Stadium. A highly decorated and respected collegiate and professional player, Nadelen spent seven seasons as an assistant coach for former Towson

Head Coach Tony Seaman, including two years as the team’s associate head coach and defensive coordinator. Since Nadelen arrived at Towson in 2004, he has sparked a defensive resurgence in which the Tigers have allowed an average of nine or fewer goals four times and finished among the nation’s top 20 defenses twice, including 2011 when the Tigers allowed 8.23 goals per game. Nadelen began his coaching career in 2002 as an assistant coach at Princeton University for the legendary Bill Tierney and helped Princeton reach the national championship game. The next two seasons, he was part of a Princeton squad that had an 11-4 record and reached the NCAA Tournament each year. A four-year starter and a senior captain for Johns Hopkins, Nadelen moved from midfield to close defense in his junior season. He led the Blue Jays to the NCAA semifinals twice and was named an All-American in 2001. In addition to coaching, Nadelen had a very successful playing career at the indoor and outdoor professional level. A three-time Major League Lacrosse (MLL) champion with the Chesapeake Bayhawks, Nadelen played 11 seasons with the franchise. Nadelen spent 10 years as a player in the National Lacrosse League (NLL). He played seven seasons for the Philadelphia Wings after stints with the New Jersey Storm and Minnesota Swarm. One of his greatest highlights as a player came in the summer of 2010 when he recovered from a serious knee injury to help Team USA win the gold medal at the Federation of International Lacrosse World Championships in England. A native of Rochester, New York, Nadelen is married to the former Mary Ciolek, who is a certified athletic trainer and a member of Towson’s kinesiology faculty. The couple has three children: Megan, William and Luke.

WOMEN’S COACH SONIA LAMONICA The Tiger women’s lacrosse team continues to be a dominant force in the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) under Head Coach Sonia LaMonica. The 2021 season will be LaMonica’s 11th at Towson. Last season, her 10th year at the helm, was cut short due to the global Coronavirus pandemic. The Tigers only played six games in the schedule before the season was called off. LaMonica led the Tigers to two wins, over High Point and Ohio State, as the team faced another hefty start to the year. Her nine previous seasons at Towson include a record of 110-67 overall with a CAA mark of 45-11 and a home record of 58-28. She has led the Tigers to three conference titles and several player accolades including All-Americans and CAA individual awards. Since her hiring in 2010 there have been 67 All-CAA awards given to members of the Towson women’s lacrosse team. LaMonica has coached two Rookie of the Year winners, two Player of the Year recipients and three Defensive Player of the Year winners. In her first season in 2011, LaMonica led the Tigers to an 11-7 record, the CAA regular season championship and an appearance in the CAA Championship Game. Along the way, LaMonica was named as the CAA Coach of the Year and had eight players earn All-CAA honors, including first team selections Jess Dunn, Mary Teeters, Alexa Demski and Ashley Waldron. A native of Darlington, South Australia, LaMonica (pronounced La - MAHN - ick - uh) was named the 10th head coach in the 34-year history of the Towson women’s lacrosse program. She returned to lead the Tigers after a one-year stint as the head coach at Mount St. Mary’s University.

24 2 0 2 1 T I G E R L A C R O S S E G A M E D AY

Prior to becoming the Mountaineers’ head coach, LaMonica spent two seasons as a member of Missy Doherty’s staff at Towson and helped the Tigers win a pair of Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) championships. Before joining the Tigers’ staff, LaMonica was an assistant coach at the University of Denver, helping the Pioneers to a 15-5 record during the 2006 season. In addition to her success as a coach, LaMonica is a member of the Australian National Team. She helped Australia win the gold medal at the 2005 World Cup Championship and a silver medal at the 2009 World Cup Championship. In the summer of 2013, LaMonica played a key role in helping Australia earn a bronze medal at the World Cup Championship in Canada. Named to the 2005 IFWLA All-World Team, she was also a member of the U-19 Australian National Team that won the silver medal at the 1999 World Championships and was also the recipient of the U21 South Australian Sportswoman of the Year award. A 2003 graduate of the University of Maryland, LaMonica was a three-year starter for the Terrapins. She earned first team All-America honors and was a candidate for the Tewaaraton Trophy during her senior season after leading Maryland to the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) championship. A team captain during her senior season, she was a member of three ACC championship teams and helped the Terrapins win the 2000 and 2001 NCAA titles. LaMonica scored 111 goals in her college career, including 49 goals as a senior, along with 55 assists. Formerly Sonia Judd, LaMonica is married to former University of Maryland men’s lacrosse standout Michael LaMonica. The couple resides in Parkton, Md. with their sons, Luca and Bodhi and daughter, Marley.

LaMonica was a four-year starter at midfield for the University of Maryland from 1999 to 2002. He earned All-Atlanic Coast Conference (ACC) honors as a junior and finished his career with 68 goals and 14 assists.

TIGER FIELD Tiger Field, part of the Lower Fields Complex, is the home of the Towson women’s lacrosse and women’s soccer teams. The complex underwent a massive renovation during the 2018-19 academic year as part of the construction of the Lower Fields Complex, including two full-field surfaces, with lighting and scoreboards, for all of Towson’s field sports and a third practice field. Football, men’s/women’s lacrosse and soccer all use the complex as a practice facility.

Phase two was completed in the summer of 2020 and included a new grandstand, concessions, restrooms, and press box. The complex sits in a valley southwest of Johnny Unitas® Stadium and below SECU Arena. Towson women’s lacrosse announced that its 2021 season would be the first at Tiger Field after playing in Unitas Stadium.
