Andrew Stimmel

Andrew Stimmel was named the second head coach in Marquette University men's lacrosse history on June 14, 2019.

Stimmel leads an experienced squad returning for the 2024 season, including three-time USILA All-American close defenseman Mason Woodward and three of the most prolific point producers in program history in Devon Cowan, Jake Stegman, and Bobby O'Grady. During the 2023 campaign, Marquette knocked off the eventual Championship Weekend team, No. 5 Penn State, and defeated Michigan, a team that advanced to the NCAA regional finals, by five goals in February. The Golden Eagles played one of the most difficult schedules in the country last season, including a game at the eventual NCAA Championship, and closed the season with four straight games against teams ranked in the top 12 in the USILA Coaches Poll.

Coaching internationally, Stimmel guided Team USA to a gold medal in the World Lacrosse Men's U-21 Championship in Limerick, Ireland, during the summer of 2022. He served as an assistant coach for the Americans, who downed the Canadians 12-10 in the title contest.

Marquette played just seven games and went 3-4 overall in 2020 before the season was cut short due to the global coronavirus pandemic. Stimmel and the Golden Eagles returned to the BIG EAST tournament semifinals in 2022 for the first time since 2019.

Stimmel led the Golden Eagles to an 11-10 victory at Cleveland State on Feb. 1 in his first NCAA Division I game as head coach, and MU had a record-setting offensive pace during his first season. Through seven games, the MU offense posted its highest goal (17.14) and point (11.71) per game averages in program history, and the squad scooped up 31.86 ground balls per game, its highest single-season average.
