James Fitzgerald
Camp Director
The College of Mount Saint Vincent's athletic department appointed James Fitzgerald as the newest head coach of the men's lacrosse program in the fall of 2021. Fitzgerald spent the last three seasons as the team's assistant coach.
While serving as an assistant under Ryan Mello, Fitzgerald served as the primary coach for defense while also leading the charge in recruiting efforts.
Fitzgerald has a longstanding tie to the lacrosse program that goes beyond coaching. The Putnam Valley, New York native was recruited to the college out of high school by Dan Mulholland and suited up for the Dolphins in all four of his playing years. The defenseman was extremely successful throughout his playing days, as he started all 54 career games he played in while accumulating 111 caused turnovers, 167 ground balls, 26 goals and 18 assists. Fitzgerald currently ranks first in program history in caused turnovers, seventh in ground balls and was the second player in program history to be named to the Skyline Conference's first team after his senior season.
After his playing days, Fitzgerald returned to CMSV as a graduate student, serving primarily in the Sports Information department. He was promoted to Sports Information Officer in the summer of 2019. He also works as an admissions counselor along with his coaching duties.
