2014 PROVIDENCE COLLEGE LACROSSE SCHEDULE

2014 PROVIDENCE COLLEGE LACROSSE • 1

THIS IS FRIARTOWN


Responding to the needs of Rhode Island, the Dominican Order of Preachers made a special commitment to the state in 1917 and founded Providence College — the only institution of higher learning in North America that is conducted by the Order. In 96 years, Providence College has steadily moved to a position of national prominence, while maintaining a personal, community-like atmosphere that fosters growth and development among its student population.

Providence College’s rich heritage dates back to 1216, or the origins of the Dominican Order in Spain. Through the ages, the Dominican Friars became known as the “champions of the faith,” spreading the gospel message through the centuries into every corner of the globe. Today, Dominican Friars continue to spread the gospel in a wide range of remote areas of the world, to teach at every level of the United States educational system.

With the Dominican tradition as its foundation, Providence College focuses on developing the entire person through its values-oriented education. The college seeks to complement a student’s knowledge with knowledge of his own values — values that will remain the foundation for sound judgement throughout a lifetime.

To that end, Providence College aims to relate its curriculum to the problems of contemporary society, offering diverse programs of study that remain grounded in the liberal arts. Students may choose from some 60 concentrations ranging from computer science to labor relations to theatre arts. In addition, qualified students who wish to structure a program not specifically provided under the regular concentrations may develop their own program with the approval of the dean of the college.

As part of the core curriculum, all students take a two-year, team-taught course, Develop-ment of Western Civilization (DWC) which inte-grates the study of literature, philosophy, history and religious studies through the ages into a co-hesive interdisciplinary unit.

Situated just on the fringe of downtown Prov-idence, the College’s location enables students to have easy access to the many social, cultural, educational and recreational amenities of urban life - the Providence Public Library; entertain-ment at the Providence Performing Arts Center; sporting events, entertainment and trade shows at the Dunkin' Donuts Center and the Providence Convention Center, Providence Place Mall and doz-ens of fine restaurants.

REVEREND BRIAN J. SHANLEY, O.P.PRESIDENT

On February 1, 2005, Providence College announced the election of Reverend Brian J. Shanley, O.P., to serve as the 12th president of the College. Father Shanley assumed his duties at the College on July 1, 2005, and succeeded Reverend Philip A. Smith, O.P., who served as the College’s president from 1994-2005. Prior to his arrival at Providence, Father Shanley served as an associate professor in the School of Philosophy at The Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C.

Father Shanley is a native of Warwick, Rhode Island. A parish-ioner at St. Gregory the Great Church, he attended local public schools, graduating from Toll Gate High School in 1976.

In 1980, Father Shanley earned his undergraduate degree in history at Providence College. He holds a doctorate degree in philosophy from the University of Toronto, where he completed the Collaborative Providence in Philosophy and Medieval Studies. He also holds a master of divinity degree (theology) and the Licentiate in Sacred Theology (S.T.L.), both from the Dominican House of Studies in Washington, D.C. (Pontifical Faculty of the Immaculate Conception.)

Ordained to the priesthood in 1987, Father Shanley has de-voted his entire career to teaching and administration in Catholic higher education. Following teaching assignments at Providence College and the University of Toronto, he began his tenure at The Catholic University of America in 1994, achieving the rank of associate professor in 2001. Father Shanley’s first teaching assignment was at Providence College from 1988-91. He was an instructor of philosophy, and taught in the Development of Western Civilization Program.

Father Shanley spent the Fall 2002 semester as a visiting professor at the Candler School of Theology at Emory University. He previously engaged in a post-doctoral fellowship at the University of Notre Dame’s Center for Philosophy of Religion in 1998-99.

As the Regent of Studies for the Dominican Province of St. Joseph, Father Shanley holds a seat on the Provincial Council, a body of 12 Dominican Friars serving as cabinet-level advisors to the Prior Provincial. He advises the Prior Provincial on all matters pertaining to the intellectual and academic life of the Province and oversees the academic endeavors of members of the Province, including those in preparation for the priesthood and those engaged in graduate studies.

Father Shanley has been widely published in philosophy-focused academic journals and has been a guest lecturer at a wide range of scholarly conferences.

ROBERT G. DRISCOLL, JR.ATHLETICS DIRECTOR/ASSOCIATE VICE PRESIDENT

Entering his 12th season as Providence College’s Associate Vice President & Athletics Director, Bob Driscoll has trans-formed and reinvigorated Providence College’s athletics program. Having established a vision of student-athlete success in the classroom, in the community and in competing for championships, Driscoll maintains focus on fostering one of the nation’s most respected programs.

Recently, Driscoll helped position the College’s athletics program for success as a member of the reorganized BIG EAST Conference, where the Friars will compete against top-flight academic and athletic institutions in a new era of rivalries built on a rich athletic traditions. With a long-term television contract with FOX Sports and its marquee men’s basketball championship tournament at Madison Square Garden, the BIG EAST is poised for success. Additionally, Friar hockey will continue to compete in the Hockey East Association, one of the premier hockey conferences in the nation.

Driscoll also has ushered in stability and success by hiring and mentoring highly respected coaches and staff, including men’s basketball Head Coach Ed Cooley, women’s basketball Head Coach Susan Robinson-Fruchtl and men’s hockey

Head Coach Nate Leaman. The department’s coaching patriarch, Ray Treacy, enters his 30th season at the helm of the perennially successful men’s and women’s cross country and track programs at Providence College.

Under Driscoll, the Friars have excelled in the classroom. In the NCAA reported Graduation Success Rate (GSR), Providence averages a 92-percent mark with an average GPA of 3.0 for all student-athletes. Following the 2012-13 competition year, four Providence College athletic programs received Public Recognition Awards as part of the NCAA Academic Progress Rate (APR) program. The Friars have had multiple teams honored in all eight years that the NCAA has given out the Public Recognition Awards. Epitomizing the drive for success in athletics and in the classroom, the 2012 women’s cross country team placed second at the NCAA Championships, boasted three All-Americans, earned a NCAA Public Recognition Award for the second-consecutive season, had three USTFCCCA All-Academic Team Selections and team captain Sam Roecker was named the BIG EAST Female Scholar-Athlete of the Year.

Last season alone, Friar student-athletes combined for over 3,000 hours of community service and raised over $38,000 for charitable causes. The men’s hockey team combined with Team IMPACT and added youngster Kevin Rich, who is battling cancer, to their roster. They welcomed Kevin to all team activities throughout the year. Other teams were involved with Relay for Life, the Project GOAL and raising money in support of the Gloria Gemma Breast Cancer Resource Foundation to fund research to name a few. Additionally, the Student Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) sponsored a We “CAN” Do It can drive that involved the entire Providence College community.

In Driscoll’s 11 seasons, the Friars have consistently competed for championships. Last season, eight Friar teams qualified for conference tournaments, including women’s cross country finishing as the national runners-up and a second-consecutive Hockey East semifinal appearance by the men’s hockey team. The men’s basketball team advanced to the second round of the BIG EAST Tournament and then went on to the quarterfinals of the National Invitation Tournament (NIT). Three additional teams made BIG EAST Tournament appearances in 2012-13 including the women’s tennis, field hockey and softball teams. The men’s and women’s


swimming and diving teams sent 26 individual qualifiers to the BIG EAST Championship. The men’s and women’s indoor/outdoor track teams combined for five individual BIG EAST titles and five runners combined for eight All-America honors.

The Friars also have had success in the Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup standings. Most recently, Providence finished the 2012-13 year ranked 12th amongst Division I-AAA schools. Since Driscoll joined the Friars, Providence has finished in the top-12 for Division I-AAA nine times.

One of the biggest impacts Driscoll has had on the Providence College Athletics Department and the College as a whole has been with facility development, construction and renovation. Since his arrival in 2001, Driscoll has transformed the College’s athletics facilities. In September of 2013 a state-of-the art, $18 million renovation and 30,000-square foot addition project to Schneider Arena was completed. The project included new locker rooms, new coaches’ offices, a renovated press box, a state-of-the-art video board and sound system, luxury boxes, as well as a new hockey and lacrosse strength and conditioning room. A new track and artificial field was built over the summer of 2013 to give the men’s and women’s cross country and track programs an improved place to train and race, as well as serving the whole Providence College community. Taylor Natatorium also underwent extensive renovations. Next to Schneider Arena, construction on a new soccer and lacrosse stadium is in planning phase.

Other facility upgrades that have highlighted Driscoll’s tenure include an $80 million renovation of the Dunkin’ Donuts Center, the home of Friar men’s basketball. The project was the result of Driscoll working strategically with lead officials in the City of Providence and the State of Rhode Island. The renovations en-hanced the game-day experience by adding 20 luxury boxes, new seats, a video scoreboard, sound system, updated restaurant and concession stands, team store, locker rooms and new weight training/fitness areas. These renovations enabled Providence College to successfully serve as host for the First and Second Rounds of the 2010 NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship. In September of 2012, renovations of Alumni Hall were completed. Alumni Hall, which is the practice facility for men’s basketball and the home of the Friar women’s basketball and volleyball teams, is now a state-of-the-art facility.

Kicking off Driscoll’s vision for the improved athletic facilities footprint at Providence College, the Concannon Fitness Center, an $18 million facility, opened in August of 2007, adjacent to the $6 million Lennon Family Field (Astroturf facility), which was completed in August 2005. The Fitness Center houses the Friars’ Jimmy Walker Strength and Conditioning Center for varsity student-athletes as well as administrative and coaching offices, conference rooms and locker rooms. Additionally, the Concannon Fitness Center serves the whole Providence College community and houses the recreation sports staff, furthering the bond between the campus community and Friar Athletics. Next, the Canavan Sports Medicine Center, which was completed in August of 2008, is equipped with an AlterG anti-gravity treadmill and a hydrotherapy room, which includes a SwimEx rehab pool and two plunges for cold/hot therapy.

Driscoll established the athletic fundraising philosophy and department that has been instrumental in making program upgrades possible. He and his staff have exceeded fundraising goals on a yearly basis, achieving a 1000% increase in fundraised dollars over an 11-year period. In July of 2013, Driscoll and his fundrais-ing staff announced the successful completion of “Mission 4 Million,” in which the department raised $4 million. The additional revenue remains critical to building and supporting championship programs and providing the best opportunities to the Providence College student-athletes. The funds Driscoll and his staff raise help directly support all 19 of Providence College’s Division I programs, the Friars Forever Fund and capital projects.

On June 10, 2008 Driscoll was named the 2007-08 Astro Turf Athletics Director of the Year for the Division I Northeast Region at the 43rd National Associa-tion of Collegiate Directors of Athletics Annual Convention. He also was honored in 2009 by his alma mater, Ithaca College, when he received the Distinguished Sport Industry Leader award.

Currently, Driscoll is the First Vice President of the Division I-AAA Athletics Directors Association. He represents the BIG EAST’s athletic directors on the Student-Athlete Advisory Council, serves as a mentor for the Division I-AAA mentoring program and serves on the HOCKEY EAST Television Negotiations and Market-ing Committees. He previously served on the NCAA Division I Management Council, the NCAA Ice Hockey Championship Committee (Chair 2010-11) and was the Chair of the Big East Athletic Directors in 2011-12. Driscoll was an NCAA Fellows Programs Executive Mentor.

Driscoll joined the Providence community after 14½ years in athletic administration at the University of California, Berkeley. At Cal, Driscoll served as the Executive Associate Athletic Director and was responsible for the day-to-day operations of the department as well as overseeing football, men’s basketball, men’s and women’s swimming, men’s and women’s water polo, rugby, strength training, equipment and the sports medicine programs.

Driscoll was hired at Cal as the Associate Athletic Director for Student Services, a position he held for five years. He then assumed the position of Executive Associate Athletic Director, at which point he was responsible for the administration of 27 varsity sports, a staff of 250 and a $36 million budget. Prior to coming to Providence, he served as the Acting Executive Director for Intercollegiate Athletics and Recreational Sports. During his tenure, Cal won over 20 national champion-ships and competed in the Citrus, Copper, Alamo and Aloha Bowls. The Bears also finished as high as 12th in the NACDA Directors’ Cup.

Before arriving at Cal, Driscoll served six years (1981-87) as the Athletic Director and Chair of the Department of Physical Education, Recreation and Intramural Sports at Mills College in Oakland, Calif. Prior to Mills, Driscoll was Assistant Athletic Director and Head Baseball and Hockey Coach at Union College in Schenectady, N.Y. from 1977-81. Driscoll played hockey and baseball at Ithaca College (N.Y.), where he received a Bachelor of Science degree in physical education in 1974. He earned his Master of Science in Physical Education/Psychology of Sports from Ithaca in 1975.

FRIAR FACILITIES

GRAND REOPENING OF SCHNEIDER ARENA

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 27FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 2013


The Grand Reopening of Providence College's Schnei-der Arena was held on Friday, Sept. 27 to celebrate the renovation of the 40-year old arena. It was a festive evening as more than 500 fans attended the event.

The celebration included a ribbon cutting ceremony and a blessing of the building, featuring President Rev. Brian J. Shanley, O.P. '80, and Athletics Director Bob Driscoll.

The renovation project was completed in just under eight months and has transformed the home of the Friar lacrosse program into one of the finest facilities in the nation. The renovation and 30,000 square-foot addition include a new atrium, ticket office, conces-sion stands, coaches offices, lockerrooms, meeting rooms, athletic training room and a strength and con-ditioning facility.

Schneider Arena was dedicated and is named in mem-ory of the late Reverend Herman D. Schneider, O.P., the founder of the Friars' highly successful hockey program and a long-time member of the school's faculty. The first game to take place in the arena was a 1-0 victory by the men's team over the University of Pennsylvania on September 24, 1973. Dan Kennedy scored the game-winning goal for the Friars, with as-sists from Steve Heggison and Shawn Howard, and Michael Zyburra made 26 saves to earn the shutout.

The lacrosse program has a brand new coaches suite, locker room, lounge and video room. The facilities are state of the art and provide the Friars with the hope of developing into a championship program.

In addition to a lacrosse specific wing, the Friars share a top-notch weight room and training room with the College's men's and women's ice hockey programs.

GRAND REOPENING OF SCHNEIDER ARENA ALUMNI WEEKEND 2013

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2013


On Saturday September 28th the Providence College lacrosse program held its annual Alumni Weekend.

The day kicked off with guided tours from Head Coach Chris Gabrielli of the new lacrosse locker room and training suite. Alumni, parents and recruits had the opportunity to see the new first-class facilities and donors who sponsored lockers could see first-hand the impact of their donations.

Following the tours, the alumni faced off against the 2014 Friars in the annual alumni game. More than 50 alumni returned for the event and parents and fans got to see a first look at this year's Friar team.

The day concluded with a Friends of Friar Lacrosse re-ception at McPhail's in the Slavin Center. Alumni had the opportunity to meet Head Coach Chris Gabrielli and hear from Athletic Director Bob Driscoll who pre-sented on the excitement that surrounds the program and the plans in place to build a championship pro-gram in Providence.

"This is an important weekend for our program be-cause it ties in the past, present and future of Friar la-crosse," said Head Coach Chris Gabrielli. "It was great for so many of our alumni, parents and recruits to see the facilities that our student-athletes will call home. I want to especially thank all of our alumni and parents who made leadership gifts to our program to make these facilities a reality. We are on the brink of creat-ing something very special here at PC and great days are ahead for Friar lacrosse."

The Dunkin’ Donuts Center became a reality on November 3, 1972 when the Rhode Island Reds played Tidewater in an American Hockey League contest. Since that time, millions of sports, music and trade fans have walked through the turnstiles in what many consider to be one of the finest civic centers in the country.

The Dunkin’ Donuts Center serves as the home court of the Providence College men’s basketball team. The women’s basketball program has played 21 games all-time at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center and has posted a 10-11 record. The program played its first game at the “Dunk” on on March 3, 1975 against SE Massachusetts. PC’s first win at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center came the following season against Worcester State on January 22, 1977. PC defeated Worcester State on that day, 67-60.

The Dunkin’ Donuts Center has seen the world’s top entertainment acts visit Providence: The Boston Pops, Lawrence Welk, Ice Capades, Barnum and Bailey Circus, Moscow Circus, Ringling Brothers Circus, ABC Wide World of Sports, World Heavyweight Boxing, Harlem Globetrotters, Disney on Ice, Elvis Presley, Billy Joel, Frank Sinatra, Julio Iglesias, Elton John, Whitney Houston, Gloria Estefan, Bobby Brown, Kenny Rogers, Van Halen, Aerosmith, The Bee Gees, Lionel Richie, Neil Diamond, Fleetwood Mac, Diana Ross, U2, Britney Spears and Bruce Springsteen to name a few of the hundreds of entertainers and acts that have played at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center. Providence College hosted the 2010 NCAA Men’s Basketball First and Second Rounds at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center in 2010.

It also serves as the home of the Providence Bruins, the AHL affiliate of the Boston Bruins. In the spring of 2006, the facility began extensive renovations that were completed in the fall of 2008. The Dunkin’ Donuts Center continues to be one of the nation’s premier complexes, seating almost 13,000 fans. The $80 million project enhanced almost every aspect of the arena and included luxury boxes, new seats, a new video score-board and sound system, new concession stands, new locker rooms and a new weight training and fitness area. The renovations ensure that the Friars will continue to play in one of the top college basketball facilities in the country.

CHAPEY FIELD - FUTURE HOME OF THE FRIARS


MEET THE COACHING STAFF

Head Coach Chris Gabrielli led the Friars to an 8-8 (1-5 BIG EAST) record in his first season in Friartown. The season marked the first .500 season for Providence since 2006. Gabrielli's fundamental approach and fast paced game plan helped Providence open its season on a 5-0 run. In addition, Gabrielli coached the Friars to a 5-3 record on the road marking the most wins on the road since 1986. For his impact on the program, Gabrielli was named NEILA Division I Coach of the Year. Gabrielli coached six student-athletes to 20+ point seasons and then junior Andrew Barton was named a All-BIG EAST Second Team selection. Gabrielli came to Providence College after spending six seasons as an assistant coach at Duke University, where he worked primarily with the Blue Devils' defensive unit. He also served as the program's recruit-ing coordinator, under the direction of current Duke Head Coach John Danowski. While at Duke, Gabrielli helped guide the program to six consecutive NCAA Final Four appearances (2007-12) and two trips to the National Championship game (2007, 2010). The Blue Devils went on to win the Na-tional Championship in 2010. Duke also captured five ACC regular-season titles (2007-09, 2011-12) and four ACC Tournament titles (2007-09, 2012). Under the watchful eye of Gabrielli, Duke's defense consistently ranked among the best nationally. Annually one of the stingiest defenses in Division I lacrosse, Duke was among the top 10 in scoring defense in 2007 and 2008 and has been among the top 25 every year under Gabrielli. In the 2010 NCAA finals, the Blue Devils held Notre Dame to just five goals in their 6-5 overtime victory, tying for the second fewest goals allowed in a NCAA championship game. During his six seasons with the Blue Devils, Gabrielli mentored seven players to 11 All-America awards. Some of these players include Nick O'Hara, a first-team All-America choice and the 2008 William F. Schmeisser Award recipient as the national defenseman of the year, 2012 ACC Co-Defensive Player of the Year and four-time All-American CJ Costabile and 2008 ACC Rookie of the Year and two-time All-America selection Michael Manley. Four of Gabrielli's former student-athletes currently suit up for Major League Lacrosse squads, including Manley who was picked third overall in this year's MLL draft. "We are pleased to have someone with Coach Gabrielli's background and track record take the reins of our lacrosse program," said Providence College President Rev. Brian J. Shanley, O.P. "I am especially impressed with Chris' recruiting experience, which will be an important element as we seek to strengthen and improve our program. I'd like to formally welcome

him to the Providence College community and wish him all the best as he begins his tenure here at PC." Gabrielli spent the 2006 season as an assistant coach at Butler where he served as the recruiting coordinator, while working primarily with the defense. Under his mentorship, three Butler defensemen earned All-GWLL honors. Gabrielli was a member of the coaching staff at his alma mater, Mas-sachusetts, from 2003-05, helping the Minutemen to a 33-13 overall record with two NCAA quarterfinal berths. Gabrielli was a member of the practice squad for the Boston Cannons of Major League Lacrosse during the 2004 season before being drafted again by the Cannons in the 2005 Supplemental Draft. In 2004, he co-founded the Mid-Summer Classic, a high school lacrosse tournament currently held on the UMass campus. A four-year letterwinner as a defenseman at Massachusetts, Gabrielli picked up 127 ground balls and added five assists in his career. As a senior in 2001, he captained the Minutemen to a 12-2 overall record and a share of the ECAC Championship, while earning Second-Team All-Conference and First-Team All-New England honors. A two-time winner of the Eric Sopracasa "Heart and Soul Award," an honor presented annually to the UMass player who displays the most leadership and dedication to the program, Gabrielli went on to play in the 2001 North-South All-Star game and the MLL Major League Challenge. "The chance to lead a program that has committed itself to excellence is a dream come true. Bob Driscoll, Father Shanley and Providence Col-lege have dedicated ample resources to ensure the success of Providence lacrosse. The BIG EAST Conference demands respect, and a renewed commitment to Providence lacrosse in the form of scholarships, facilities and staff has invigorated the program with an energy and excitement for the future. Our location, academic reputation and complete college expe-rience here at Providence College will attract the finest student-athletes that our sport has to offer." A native of Farmingdale, N.Y., Gabrielli graduated from Massachusetts in 2001 with a degree in sport management. He and his wife, Candice, have one daughter, Grace.

John Galloway enters his second season on the Providence College men's lacrosse staff as an assistant. Recently Galloway was named to the 30-man roster that Team USA will bring to compete at the FIL World Championship in Denver, Colo.

Galloway came to Providence after one season as a volunteer assistant coach at Duke University. While at Duke he worked closely with the goal-keepers and defensive unit. His stint at Duke followed a stellar four-year career as a goalkeeper at Syracuse University. A two-time First-Team All-America goaltender for the Orange, Galloway departed Syracuse as one of the most decorated players in program history. In 2011, he was the winner of the Ensign C. Markland Kelly Jr. Award as the nation's best goalkeeper. He also became just the second goalkeeper in history to be named a finalist for the Tewaaraton Trophy, lacrosse's highest honor.

"I couldn't be more appreciative of the opportunity that Coach Gabrielli and Providence College have given me," Galloway said. "I look forward to working at a prestigious academic institution with a sincere passion for college athletics. I believe that under the leadership of Coach Gabrielli, Providence lacrosse student-athletes are bound to compete and achieve great success on the playing field, in the classroom and in the community. I am honored to accept the challenge of helping Coach Gabrielli establish Providence lacrosse as a model program for student-athletes of outstand-ing character and success."

The native of Syracuse, N.Y., Galloway, finished his career with a NCAA record 59 victories and played a NCAA record 3,776 minutes throughout his four seasons at Syracuse. He ranks seventh in the NCAA records book and is tops among Orange goalkeepers in goals against average (7.33). He also holds the Syracuse record for NCAA Tournament goals against average (7.20) and is seventh on the all-time saves list with 601. The only goalie in NCAA history to win a NCAA title as a freshman and sophomore, Galloway is the lone goalkeeper in Syracuse history to earn First-Team All-America recognition twice. In 2008, he became the fifth true freshman goalie in NCAA history to lead his team to a National Championship as the Orange won a school-record 16 games. Galloway was equally successful off the field. He was a two-time national Academic All-America choice and was a finalist for the Lowe's Senior CLASS Award. He earned a spot on the SU Athletic Director's Honor Roll in all eight semesters and was named to the BIG EAST All-Academic team as a junior and senior.

"John Galloway's lacrosse upbringing at West Genesee High School and Syracuse University will be invaluable to our program here at Providence College," Gabrielli said. "John has led his team's to multiple champion-ships at both levels, while earning All-America honors, and he is currently pursuing a Major League Lacrosse Title with the Rochester Rattlers. John is a student of the game who loves to coach, loves the sport and values the impact that he will have on the development of our student athletes."

WHAT THEY ARE SAYING ABOUT CHRIS GABRIELLI:

"Personally, I am thrilled for Chris. He has been with me since 2006. While I am sad to see him leave our program, Providence College has made a great choice. He is a wonderful person, who is a great teacher of the game, with a voracious appetite to learn. This is an amazing opportunity for Chris as he will be leading a BIG EAST program. The BIG EAST needs to be prepared as the Providence College Friars are going to be very competitive." - John Danowski • Head Coach, Duke University

"Providence College has hit a home run with the hiring of Chris Gabrielli. To be sure, we are ecstatic for Chris, Candice and Grace to have this wonderful opportunity. During his time at Duke, Chris was instrumental in the team's success, with six-consecutive trips to Memorial Day Weekend [NCAA Men's Lacrosse Final Four], including the 2010 National Champion-ship. While we will miss Chris and his family greatly, we wish them all the best in this new endeavor." - Kevin M. White • Vice President and Director of Athletics, Duke University "Providence College is very lucky to have Chris Gabrielli as the new leader of their lacrosse program. There is not a better person, mentor and coach that PC could have hired. The future of Providence College is in great hands. Chris will work extremely hard, demand respect and lead with integrity - all of which he will ask of his new players! I could not be happier for Chris and Providence College!" - Greg Cannella • Head Coach, University of Massachusetts "I am thrilled for Chris, Candice and Grace that Providence College has selected Chris to be their next head lacrosse coach. Chris has a tremen-dous pedigree as both a player and a coach, and success in this game has followed him at every level. His exposure to Greg Cannella, Stan Ross, and John Danowski have undoubtedly prepared him for the challenges he will face as the head coach at Providence, in every facet of the job. His ability to relate to the players and understand their demands and perspectives will quickly earn him their respect and admiration. Under Chris' direction, no one in the BIG EAST should be surprised to see Providence College la-crosse reach new heights." - Jason Miller • Head Coach, St. John's University "Chris Gabrielli is a tremendous coach and an even more impressive person. Providence College is getting one of the brightest young coaches in the game. I had a strong feeling this day would come when I was lucky enough to coach him at UMass. He was a tremendous captain at UMass in 2001, and has continued to forge his leadership style at every coaching stop he has made. All the while, Chris has been governed by an uncom-promising moral compass, an intense work ethic, and a desire to be the best. I couldn't be happier for Chris, Candice and Grace." - Andy Shay • Head Coach, Yale University

2013 HONORS AND AWARDS - MEN’S LACROSSE


COMMUNITY OUTREACHThe Providence College men's lacrosse team kicked off the fall season by getting involved in the local communi-ty. The Friars teamed up with the Cumberland Boy's and Girls' Club to raise money for the community center. All proceeds from the race will go to supplementing the club's operating budget for youth activities and pro-grams.

On Sunday, October 20 the men's lacrosse team attend-ed the annual Cumberland Boys' and Girls' Club Black-stone River Duck Race. From 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. the men's lacrosse team spent the day preparing and clean-ing up the race which typically raises over $30,000 for the youth center and its programming.

On Tuesday, Dec. 3 the Providence College men's la-crosse program hosted a clinic for students from Mount Pleasant Academy located in Providence, R.I. The Friars coached students on the fundamentals of the game and created a fun learning environment for the exploration of lacrosse. After learning the basics of throwing, catch-ing, and stick handling, the group competed in a shooting contest. The day concluded with a relay race and team photo.

The Friar lacrosse program looks to build relationships within the community and is eager to spread its love and passion for the game of lacrosse to the youth in the area.


OUTSIDE THE LINESMARK TRIBUS - BUILDING WINNING TEAMS

The Providence College men's lacrosse team participated in a team building program on Mon-day, Oct. 21. Retired LTC. Mark Tribus from "Mark Tribus-Building Winning Teams," led the Friars through a series of team building and leadership exercises. The physical and mental challenges set forth by Tribus helped the Providence College lacrosse program to grow as a unit.

Head Coach Chris Gabrielli was excited to have his program under Mark's leadership. "We are so fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Mark Tribus and his team this week," said Gabrielli. "Mark's expertise in team building and leadership development is second to none, and his impact is immediate and lasting!"

Tribus is a graduate of West Point, in addition to Harvard Business School. Tribus served a twenty year career in the United States Army where he served a combat tour in Afghanistan during Op-eration Enduring Freedom. He has a true passion for leadership development and team building. He focuses on designing inspirational exercises that create lasting change. Tribus is currently the CEO of his own firm, Mark Tribus, Inc. He is committed to building winning teams, one leader at a time.

Tribus is a well experienced leadership coach. He has conducted over 100 team building experi-ences for a variety of organizations ranging from athletic teams, business executives and doctors to collegiate scholar programs.

The Friar lacrosse program completed a series of exercises that challenged them both physi-cally and mentally. In addition to team building, the exercises demanded players to develop themselves as leaders. "Mark not only helped our team realize that their physical capabilities far exceeded their preconceived limitations, but he also taught our team about leading self, the selfless leadership of others, trust, love, respect and how to effectively communicate with your teammates and coaches," Gabrielli stated.

Gabrielli believes that the tactics illustrated by Tribus can help the Providence College lacrosse program to compete at the championship level. "I'd like to thank our very supportive Alumni base for providing us with the resources to bring in such an accomplished and impactful team building, and leadership development expert," Gabrielli stated. "Our coaches and players have been provided with the tools to help build a Championship Program!"

The Friars were coming off a 7-1 record in the MAAC in 2003 and returned a number of key players to set up a run to the conference title. The 2004 squad packed a powerful offensive-defensive punch, with MAAC Defensive Player of the Year Brian O'Rorke anchoring the fifth-ranked PC defense, and First Team All-MAAC selection Dan Giuntini posting 35 points, including 29 goals, to lead the Friar attack. After dropping the first two games of the season, Providence won three of its next four, including a dominating 15-1 triumph at MAAC rival Siena. That win began a streak of three-consecutive league victories, as PC also knocked off Saint Joseph's and Wagner to improve to 4-1 in MAAC play. After a 7-4 setback to Marist, PC earned home wins over VMI and Manhattan to enter the league tournament in Buffalo with a 6-2 record and a No. 3 seed. The Friars opened the tournament with an upset of No. 2 seed Canisius, 10-8, and wrapped up its first MAAC Tournament Championship with an 11-6 title game victory over the Manhattan Jaspers. Mark Rotella earned MAAC Championship Most Outstanding Player honors after winning 14-of-20 faceoffs in the title game and 15-of-22 in the semifinal against Canisius. The conference title earned the Friar program's first

NCAA Tournament berth in the 25-year history of the team and began the run of three NCAA Tournament appearances over a four-year span. PC fell to No. 1 overall seed Johns Hopkins in the first round of the tournament in Baltimore, Md. to finish the season.

After an 8-8 season in 2005, bolstered by a 7-1 record in MAAC play, the Friars were ready to make another run at the MAAC Tournament title in 2006. PC was anchored once again by a strong defense that allowed only 8.5 goals per game on the season. Junior goaltender Peter Littell led the superb Friar defense, as the Upper Montclair, N.J. native ranked ninth in the nation with a .589 save percentage and 14th with a 7.82 goals against average. PC also featured one of its best offensive teams of the decade, paced by the program's first-ever All-American, Michael Farley. Farley led the Friars with 44 points and ranked 26th in the nation in goals per game. Providence excelled in crunch time throughout the season, as the Friars were a perfect 4-0 in overtime games on the year, including an 11-10 extra-session win in the MAAC semifinals against Marist. After two competitive setbacks to Ivy League foes Dartmouth and Yale to open the season, the Friars rattled off two-straight MAAC wins with victo-ries over Saint Joseph's and Wagner. The Friars dropped a close 12-11 contest to Canisius next, before earning an impressive 11-10, overtime victory against Fairfield. PC then defeated Siena, 8-7, in two overtimes to improve to 3-1 in the conference. After a 11-7 setback to VMI, Providence finished the confer-ence season with three-consecutive victories, including a 9-6 win at Marist. PC entered the MAAC Tournament in Buffalo with a 6-2 league record and earned the No. 1 seed in the tournament for the second time in school his-tory. Bolstered by the 11-10, semifinal win against Marist, the Friars knocked off Mt. St. Mary's, 8-6, to claim their second MAAC Tournament title and NCAA Tournament berth in three seasons. Graduate student Jonathan Hollister earned Most Outstanding Player honors after recording eight points over the two tournament contests. The Friars advanced to the NCAA Tournament as the No. 14 seed and faced No. 3 Hofstra on Long Island. The Friars played a competitive game, but fell, 14-8, to the Pride.

2004 - 9-8 Overall Record, 6-2 MAAC

2006 - 10-7 Overall Record, 6-2 MAAC

2007 - 7-10 Overall Record, 5-3 MAAC The 2007 Providence College men's lacrosse team was one of the most determined, and certainly one of the toughest squads under the direcion of former Head Coach Chris Burdick. After a difficult 0-8 start to the season, the team could have easily lost its focus and ended the season the way it began. Instead, this team executed one of the greatest turnarounds in Providence College Athletics history. The Friars rebounded from 0-8 to win their final four MAAC games and sneak into the league tournament in Emmitsburg, Md. as the No. 4 seed. From there, the Friars upset top-seeded Canisius, 9-7, and went on to defeat Saint Joseph's, 9-4, in the tournament final to complete the Cinderella run and earn a third NCAA Tournament in four seasons. PC was bolstered all-season long by a defense that ranked 11th nationally and featured one of the best defenders in school history in James Courter. Goalkeeper Peter Littell had one of his best seasons in the cage as a senior, earning First Team All-MAAC honors after ranking in the top-20 in the country in goals against average and save percentage.

The BIG EAST Conference enters a new era in 2013-14. The league, which has always competed with integrity and sportsmanship at the highest levels of intercollegiate sports, will move forward as a 10-team consortium that is returning to its heritage, focusing athletically on men’s basketball while striding into the future with an eye towards leadership and innovation. The conference will crown champions in 22 sports in 2013-14, the 35th season in its history, with its student-athletes continuing to achieve success in the classroom as well as the athletic arena. In 2012, the seven BIG EAST schools that do not compete in FBS football decided to return to the type of conference alignment that existed when the league was formed in 1979 and quickly surged to national prominence as a college basketball force. On December 15, 2012, these seven institutions (DePaul University, Georgetown University, Marquette University, Providence College, St. John’s University, Seton Hall Uni-versity and Villanova University) announced their intention to separate from the football-playing schools in the previous BIG EAST and form an independent association. On March 20, 2013, the seven schools reached an agreement that enabled them to keep the BIG EAST name and establish a new conference entity beginning on July 1, 2013. The schools also assumed the old conference’s long-term agreement with Madison Square Garden to host the BIG EAST Men’s Basketball Championship, one of the premier events in college athletics. The schools also announced the addition of three distinguished institutions that share the same academic and athletic values

-- Butler University, Creighton University and Xavier University -- and forged a landmark, long-term broadcast partnership with FOX Sports. The television agreement will help usher in the new BIG EAST era and afford the conference’s schools broad national exposure. Fox Sports and its new national cable network, Fox Sports 1, have the television rights to all BIG EAST games in all sports. BIG EAST men’s basketball teams have enjoyed extraordinary success over the years. Georgetown, Marquette and Villanova have won the national championship, and DePaul, Providence, St. John’s and Seton Hall have all made it to the Final Four. The BIG EAST placed three men’s basketball teams in the Final Four in 1985 – Georgetown, St. John’s and Villanova -- the only time this has occurred in NCAA history. Over the past 10 years, Butler, Georgetown, Marquette and Villanova have each reached the Final Four, with Butler making two trips (in 2010 and 2011). Xavier has also advanced to the Elite Eight twice and the Sweet 16 three other times. BIG EAST student-athletes have achieved recent success in other sports, as well. A BIG EAST team has won the NCAA women’s cross country championship three of the last four years (Villanova won twice and Georgetown once), with one runner-up finish (Providence). Creighton’s men’s soccer team has reached the NCAA College Cup in each of the past two seasons. Since opening its doors in 1979, the league has won 34 national championships in six different sports, and 137 student-athletes have won individual national titles through 2012-13. The BIG EAST became a reality on May 31, 1979, following a meeting of athletic direc-tors from Providence, St. John’s, Georgetown, Syracuse, Seton Hall, Connecticut and Boston

College, which formed the original seven-school alliance. While the membership has evolved, the focus of the BIG EAST has not wavered. The conference reflects a tradition of broad-based programs, led by adminis-trators and coaches who place a steadfast emphasis on academic integrity. BIG EAST student-athletes sport significantly high graduation rates, and the league has always been able to boast that many of its best students are also its best athletes. The league has long been con-sidered a leader in innovative concepts in promotion and publicity, particularly regard-ing television. Those efforts have resulted in unparalleled visibility for the conference and BIG EAST student-athletes. The BIG EAST was the brainchild of Dave Gavitt, who was the conference’s first Commissioner and served until 1990. Mi-chael Tranghese, the league’s first full-time employee and the right-hand man to Gavitt for 11 years, took over from Gavitt and was commissioner until 2009. John Marinatto was the third commissioner of the BIG EAST, serving from 2009-2012, when he was suc-ceeded by Mike Aresco. Val Ackerman, who previously served as President of USA Basketball and the founding President of the WNBA, was named the BIG EAST’s fifth Commisioner on June 26, 2013. BIG EAST institutions are now located in seven of the nation’s top 35 largest media markets, including New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Indianapolis, Milwaukee and Cincinnati. The BIG EAST has moved its headquarters from Providence, its original location, to New York City.

THE OCEAN STATE • RHODE ISLAND

RHODE ISLAND...Rhode Island is an unforgettable destination. This tiny New England state is a gem, boasting hundreds of miles of breathtaking beaches, rich and dramatic history and attractions for the entire family. No matter when you visit, you will find plenty to keep you busy and fascinated. Winter brings Christmas in Newport. Spring means Daffodil Days in in Bristol, traditional May breakfasts all over the state and the opening of baseball season at Pawtucket’s McCoy Stadium, home of the Pawtucket Red Sox. Summer brings outdoor music festivals, evening theater in the city parks and the oldest Fourth of July parade in the nation. And autumn might just be the best time of all, when the leaves turn golden, orange and red and the scent of apple cider fills the air.

TOURISM... Travel and tourism is one of Rhode Island’s most valued industries, ultimately generating more than $2.26 billion for the state’s economy. With more than 100 beaches, 400 miles of picture-perfect coastline, historical and cultural attractions, and world-class dining, it is no surprise that tourism and hospitality is Rhode Island’s second-largest industry, supporting 70,179 jobs and more than $5 billion in spending in 2006.

THE RHODE ISLAND ADVANTAGE...Rhode Island may be small, but it packs a cultural and scenic punch. Within Rhode Island’s borders is one of the largest concentrations of historic landmarks in the nation, a vibrant arts and cultural scene, miles of pristine coastline and some of the most acclaimed dining establishments in the country. Providence is never more than a 30-minute drive from anywhere in the state - from the beaches of Narragansett to the City-by-the-Sea, Newport, to the farms and bucolic beauty of Northwestern Rhode Island.


EXPERIENCE A CITY IN RENAISSANCE...Providence, Rhode Island is among America’s most dynamic, diverse and exciting new destination cities. Come and see it for yourself. Gather with thousands in the rejuvenated downtown for a magical WaterFire display. Catch a Broadway-bound show. Enjoy dinner in one of the city’s many award-winning restaurants, then head to Federal Hill to sip an authentic caffe latte. Mingle with the more than 26,000 students who attend the city’s five colleges and universities. Explore internship opportunities with the city’s busi-nesses and nonprofits and see a real-world path to career success. Providence College’s scenic 105-acre campus is located just 10 minutes away from one of the most historic and cosmopolitan city centers in the United States. Come to Providence and embrace all that America’s Renaissance City has to offer.

A LIVELY DOWNTOWN SCENE...It’s where Colonial-era cobblestone streets intersect with gleaming new office buildings. Where young men and women from across the nation intern with some of the most recognized names in fi-nance, business, technology and healthcare. In Providence, there’s always something happening, always a new exhibition, bookshop or bistro to check out. The New York Times describes it as “one of the hippest towns in New England.” And Money Magazine calls it “the best city in the East for young professionals.”

DEMOGRAPHICS...The population of Providence is 176,365, with the total population of Rhode Island at 1,076,164. Rhode Island measures about 35 miles wide by 47 miles tall, which is about the size of metropolitan Chicago. Centrally located along the Eastern Seaboard, Rhode Island is the only state completely surrounded by other New England states.

ACCESSIBILITY...Located at the intersection of I-95 and I-195, Providence is 40 miles from Boston (about a one hour car ride) and 185 miles from New York City (about three hours by car). Providence is also located along Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor route, with the high speed Acela Express train service transporting passengers to and from New York City in about two and a half hours. Just ten minutes from downtown Providence, T.F. Green Airport offers non-stop service to more than 27 different markets across the country.

DINING...Providence is one of the hottest culinary spots in the country. Home to the world’s largest culinary educator, Johnson & Wales University, many stu-dents stay in the city after graduation. Providence has more degreed chefs per capita than any other city in the US. From authentic ethnic foods to seafood fresh from Narragansett Bay, the city offers a dazzling array of restaurants that will delight even the most discerning palate.

HISTORIC FEDERAL HILL...Historic Federal Hill is the “Heartbeat of Providence” and begins at Atwells Avenue, the great street that flows under the arch. Listen to the lofty church bells while walking the cobblestone walkways and shop at boutiques, visit the art galleries and dine in some of the finest restaurants in the

country. Bakeries and coffee shops are full of delicious breads and pastries and a must for that perfect cup of espresso or cappuccino. Enjoy dining and music outdoors in the great square with the grand fountain. It is the essential stop, the place where people must come. Without a stop on the “Hill” something is left out, something is missing. The gateway arch over Atwells with the LaPigna (pinecone) sculpture hanging from its center, a traditional Italian symbol of abundance and quality is often mistakenly referred to as “The Pineapple” and has become the symbol of Federal Hill. A place dedicated to the Italian immigrants who gathered here as com-munity it remains today a place of charm, warmth and hospitality to all who experience the “Hill”. For visitors looking for Italian cuisine, Federal Hill is the place for you.

SHOPPING...Connected to the Rhode Island Convention Center and The Omni Provi-dence, Providence Place offers visitors a mall with more than 170 shop-ping, dining and entertainment options. Funky urban chic can be found at one of the many boutiques on Thayer and Wickenden streets, both on the city’s East Side.
