6 HEAD COACH JEFF TAMBRONI Eighth Year Hobart '92 Career Record: (.668) / 17 Seasons At Penn State: (.577) / Seven Season 2009 USILA DI COACH OF THE YEAR 2011 CAA CO-COACH OF THE YEAR 2013 CAA COACH OF THE YEAR 2014 U.S. MEN'S NATIONAL TEAM ASSISTANT COACH HALL OF FAME (CLASS OF '18) Jeff Tambroni, who is in his eighth season State in 2018, has a record, and a record at the helm of the Nittany Lion squad. Tambroni has led the Nittany Lions to the NCAA Tournament in 2013 and Tambroni, one of the sport s most decorated coaches, enters the 2018 season ninth among all active Division I coaches in career win percentage. Tambroni led the Nittany Lions to a 12-4 record, just the seventh doubledigit win season, and only the second in the last 20 seasons (2013, 2017). Penn State set a program record, opening the season with a 10-0 record for the best start in school history. The 10th win highlighted the streak as Penn State took down No. 5 Ohio State, 9-4, to earn just the eighth victory in program history over a top-five team. Penn State also earned their first winning record in Big Ten play, going 3-2. Tambroni saw three earn USILA All-America honorable mention honors, while Nick Aponte earned a USILA Scholar All-America honor. Penn State s 2013 campaign saw Tambroni lead Penn State to one of the greatest seasons in program history while celebrating its 100th season. The Nittany Lions set a record for wins (12) and earned the program s first outright regular season conference title by sweeping the CAA with a 6-0 record. PSU rattled off ten-straight wins from March through May to earn the school s third NCAA bid and first chance to host an NCAA tournament game. The program s 12 wins in 2017 tied the record. There have been four USILA Scholar All-America honorees under Tambroni and 14 USILA All-Americans during his time State. Tambroni was named USILA Division I Coach of the Year following the 2009 season while at Cornell and was tabbed the 2007 and 2009 Field Turf/NCAA Division I Coach of the Year. Tambroni was also the 2004 and 2009 Ithaca Journal Male Coach of the Year and a three-time National Coach of the Week. While at Cornell, Tambroni became the 10th-fastest coach to reach the 100- win mark when he accomplished the feat in his 134th career game in March During his tenure, his players earned 37 first-team All-Ivy honors, including five Ivy League awards, and three conference Rookie of the Year selections. Also, 39 players garnered All-America recognition. A 1992 graduate, Tambroni earned his bachelor s degree in American studies. He claimed first-team All-America honors as a senior and was twice named a second-team All-American ( ). The MVP of the 1990 NCAA title game, Tambroni helped lead the team to back-to-back NCAA championships ( ) and left Hobart tied for seventh on the school s all-time scoring list with 202 points, and currently sits in eighth. Before embarking upon his collegiate coaching career, Tambroni coached the Heaton Mersey Lacrosse Club of the English Lacrosse Union for one year and served as a visiting coach for the Czech-American Lacrosse Foundation in Prague in the summer of QUAD CORE OF CAPTAINS The 2018 Nittany Lion squad will be led by senior middies Ryan Keenan, Tanner Peck, and Tripp Traynor, and redshirt junior defender Mike Aronow. When asked about their leadership skills, Head Coach Jeff Tambroni mentioned how each was different, and together they provided a well-rounded leadership core. The quartet has helped the Nittany Lions program come from a 5-9 record in their freshman season to an improved 12-4, and a No. 1 ranking in the national poll in their junior year, and will look to build upon in #BRICKSQUAD MENTALITY The blue-collar work ethic of Penn State men s lacrosse has been a mainstay under Coach Jeff Tambroni, and even using a brick to symbolize what that means has been in play for a few years, but following the 2017 season, the now-graduated seniors of 2017 gave Tambroni a brick with the engraving Leave it better than you found it... Class of We wanted an identity piece, Tambroni said. We wanted our program to think about a symbol more visually instead of just conversations with our guys about what we want it to look like. Also, there is a second brick that is passed around by the team to the player with the most brick mentality every week. The player who holds the brick chooses who deserves the brick the following week, and they pass the actual brick on to the next deserving player. PRESEASON RECOGNITION The Trio of juniors Chris Sabia and Grant Ament and sophomore Gerard Arceri were named to the USILA Preseason DI Player of the Year Watch List. They were also named as Penn State s Big Ten Players to Watch. Sabia was named an Inside Lacrosse Preseason Second Team All-America honoree, while Arceri was named to the Third Team and Amernt earned Honorable Mention. NITTANY LIONS BUILDING IN DEPTH The Nittany Lions present a menacing starting lineup on both attack and defense that can cause problems for many teams. Beyond their starters though, there are a lot of question marks on both sides of the ball at an early point in the season. The challenge for Tambroni and his staff is motivating the rest of the team to step up and make meaningful contributions. Inevitably, every student-athlete wants to play, everybody wants to contribute on game day because they work so hard, Tambroni said. The on us falls on Jeff Tambroni. It s my job to make sure there s a grander purpose than coming in here and playing. There s got to be a reason why these guys come here. Although the message starts with the coaching staff, it is then on the team to uphold it in the locker room and on the field. NITTANY LIONS SHIFTING FOCUS INWARD Every Monday the coaching staff meets with the team to reflect on their individual performances from the weekend. During this week s session, the Nittany Lions were eager to add to the conversation and bring focus to the areas they feel they need to improve upon. There were several decent plays that were made throughout the course of the game, we just didn t connect enough of them, Penn State head coach Jeff Tambroni said. It was tough. When we talked to our guys about things that needed to be worked on, plenty of hands went up, so it was nice to see our guys have a decent understanding about what needs to be done this week. Although the team fell short executing plays successfully throughout the game, one positive to emerge was their consistent level of hard work. Throughout several momentum shifts, the Nittany Lions refused to give up or deviate from their style of blue-collar lacrosse. Tambroni and his wife, Michelle, have three daughters, Carissa, Madison, and Ella. Michelle played field hockey State from and earned All-America honors as a senior.

7 LAST TIME OUT With the game even at nine heading into the fourth, it was the Nittany Lions who would strike first as sophomore Mac O Keefe would find the back of the cage in an extra-man opportunity to take a 10-9 advantage with 14:32 left to play. However, the Terrapins would score three straight goals, to take a advantage, and from there Penn State would play catch-up for the final 5:56 of the game. With just 18 seconds left to play in the game, junior Nick Spillane would bully his way through the defenders, to make it 13-12, but on the ensuing face, the visitors gain possession and would run out the clock. The entire game featured back-and-forth action as the first quarter ended in a 3-3 draw, and the Nittany Lions carried a 5-4 lead into the break. After the third, the Terps were about to take a 9-8 lead heading into the fourth, but a rebound ground ball picked up by Robby Black in front of the crease, turned into a Robby Black goal as the junior middie was able to juke out the Terrapins goalie to tie it at 9-all. Penn State saw four players finished the game with four points as O Keefe led Penn State with four goals on the evening. Redshirt sophomore Dylan Foulds also added four points, as he sunk three into the back of the net, and added an assist. Junior Nick Spillane added two goals and two assists, while senior Ryan Keenan found the back of the net once, and added three assists. The Nittany Lions also got goals from Robby Black and Kevin Hill, and freshman defender Brayden Peck recorded his first career assist, finding Foulds on a successful clear. PENN STATE DRAWS TAKEAWAYS FROM Although the Nittany Lions couldn t pull off the upset, Penn State head coach Jeff Tambroni didn t feel the scoreboard reflected the amount of effort his team poured into their performance. I always think you get what you deserve when you walk off the field, Tambroni said. I don t think our guys deserved to lose, but we didn t make enough plays today. On the other hand, I m really empathetic for our guys because I thought they competed so hard tonight and they did everything we as coaches asked them to do in terms of their effort and just staying focused on the details. In the week leading up to Sunday s game, Tambroni noted his team wanted to come out and take control from the first face off. They managed to do just that, scoring the first two goals of the game. Penn State led the Terrapins 6-5 at the half, while keeping the score tied 9-9 headed into the fourth quarter. With neither team leading by more than two goals throughout the entirety of the game, the clock hit zero with the Nittany Lions a goal short of forcing overtime. The toughest part about it is when you re up the whole game and you get down to the wire, you feel like you could have done something that would have prevented that one less goal or you would be up one if you did something differently, redshirt junior defenseman Mike Aronow said. During the game I thought we did a good job of being composed. I don t know what happened at the end, I think [Maryland s] players made a lot of really good plays and we just didn t execute. AMENT, ARCERI NAMED TO TEWAARATON WATCHLIST Junior Grant Ament was named to the first edition of the Tewaraaton Watchlist. The list includes the top players across all three divisions of NCAA lacrosse and highlights the early contenders for the 2018 Tewaaraton Award. Ament, who has yet to play a game in the 2018 season, recorded 30 goals and 30 assists in 2017 to lead the Nittany Lions. Arceri was named to the watchlist after the first round of additions. Arceri is arguably one of the top three faceoff guys in the nation, and ranks in the top three in faceoff specific categories. (SEE NCAA RANKING PAGE) KNEESE, CARDILE EARN MLAX WEEKLY HONORS sophomores Colby Kneese and Nick Cardile honored by the Big Ten on Tuesday afternoon as Kneese was named Specialist of the Week, and Cardile was named Defensive Player of the Week for their performances against Ohio State. Kneese was also named to the United State Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association Team of the Week. Kneese was the catalyst to the Penn State 12-4 win on Saturday as he made a season-high 16 saves, 11 of which came in the first half and helped stifle the Buckeye offense, which included shutting them out in the first and fourth quarters. Kneese finished with an 80.0-percent save percentage. He also added five ground balls. Cardile was also instrumental in the Nittany Lions defense that held the Buckeyes to just four goals. The long-stick middie led the team with two caused turnovers and added four ground balls to his performance. ARCERI NAMED BIG TEN SPECIALIST OF THE WEEK X5 (2/20, 2/27, 3/6, 3/13, 3/20) Penn State men s lacrosse sophomore Gerard Arceri earned his fifth consecutive Big Ten Specialist of the Week honor. Against Fairfield, Arceri went 20 of 25 at the face-off x, adding 17 ground balls to his stat line. Against Furman, Arceri won face-off attempts, with an impressive.905 winning percentage.

Against Cornell, Arceri won 11 of 19 attempts, bringing his weekly winning percentage to.750. He also added 10 ground balls against Big Red. Arceri was named the Big Ten Specialist of the Week for the first time this season, as well as, being named to the USILA Team of the Week for his dominating performance against Stony Brook. Arceri was a key cog in the Nittany Lions offense as he went on the faceoff, including a commanding 9 of 10 in the opening quarter that led to three goals in the first 1:03 of the game. The sophomore from St. James, N.Y., finished the game with a career-high 16 ground balls, and three points, scoring two goals and dishing out his first career assist. This was Arceri s first career multi-goal game and he finished with a season-high.741 faceoff winning percentage. He then picked up his second-straight Big Ten honor after going on the face, with 10 GBs and a goal against Robert Morris. His thrid came after going 18-20, for a season-high.900-winning percentage. He scooped up a game-best 13 ground balls and scored a goal as well in the 10-7 win over No. 13 Penn. O KEEFE NAMED B1G OFFENISVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK (2/13) Mac O Keefe was named the Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week for his performance against Hobart, as announced by the league office on Tuesday afternoon. O Keefe scored a team-best five goals against Hobart, adding an assist as well. The attackman added four ground balls and one caused turnover. He scored three of Penn State s goals during a crucial second half 8-1 run that gave the Nittany Lions the lead and the win after being down 7-6 at half. His assist came during that run as well. KEENAN, KELLY EARN B1G MLAX WEEKLY HONORS (2/6) Following the first week of action, the Penn State men s lacrosse team saw senior midfielder Ryan Keenan and freshman midfielder Jack Kelly earn Big Ten weekly honors as Keenan was named the Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week and Kelly took home the Freshman of the Week honor, as announced by the league office on Tuesday afternoon. Keenan, who was named a member of the USILA DI Team of the Week on Monday, earns his first career honor from the Big Ten after putting together a career performance against Villanova. The middie scored a career-high five goals and added two assists on the way to a personal best seven points. He also scooped up five ground balls in the game. His five goals put him in a four-way tie atop the NCAA goals per game leaderboard. Kelly took home the Freshman of the Week honor after scoring two goals in his first collegiate game. His two goals came on his only two shots of the game. He also added two ground balls and a caused turnover. FOULDS AFFECT After earning his role in the starting attack line, red-shirt sophomore Dylan Foulds has found his groove.
