On today’s episode, I’m joined by Mike Marich to talk lacrosse, coaching, and building programs the right way. We dig into Mike’s journey, from picking up a stick after growing up as a basketball player, to building a successful program at Gunn School, and now coaching and training in Nashville. We talk culture over wins, why joy and creativity matter in player development, and how coaching has evolved over the years. Mike shares his defensive principles, his belief in questioning and self-correction, and why helping players think the game is more important than just running drills. This conversation is all about relationships, adaptability, and growing the game the right way.
