Kurt Glaeser
, Head Men’s Lacrosse Coach and Camp Director, fields teams that are increasingly competitive within the Mid-Atlantic region as well as nationally. The past decade has been an era of upset wins over nationally ranked teams and tough one goal losses, as on and off again, the Eagles flirt with Top 20 Division III status. In 2009, his team started off at 3-1, with a 1 goal loss to #10 Washington & Lee, and began receiving votes for Top 20 in the coaches’ poll. As the Capital Athletic Conference improved dramatically, UMW suffered 3 more one-goal losses down the stretch to finish at 8-7, losing to defending national champion Salisbury University in the conference tournament.


Glaeser, who served as the head coach for UMW’s nationally-renowned Women’s Soccer program from 1989 to 2008, is excited to be able to focus on men’s lacrosse beginning in 2009. Between the two-sports he has earned 14 coaching awards since coming to UMW.

A fine player in his own right, Glaeser's playing career began as a midfielder at famed Loyola High School in Baltimore, MD, and continued both as a midfielder and an attack at Western Maryland College. In 1978, under legendary coach Bill Thomas, Glaeser (a tri-captain and all-conference selection) helped the Green Terror to its first Middle Atlantic Conference title. His post-collegiate career included playing experience with several club teams. Prior to coming to Fredericksburg, Glaeser was the head coach at Drew University, in 1981 and 1982.
