ERIC SEIDEMAN
HEAD MEN’S COACH
The College of Wooster
Eric Seideman (SIDE-min), who possesses nearly two decades of coaching experience at the NCAA Div. III level, including 11 years as head coach at Mount Saint Mary College (New York), has been selected as The College of Wooster’s men’s lacrosse head coach following a national search. Seideman’s tenure at the College began on July 1, 2022.
Seideman arrived in Newburgh, New York, in 2011 to build up a relatively new Mount Saint Mary program, and his efforts were immediately evident with a program record seven wins in 2012. Seideman’s program reached new heights in 2018, winning a record 12 games and advancing to the Skyline Conference Tournament championship game for the first time. Under Seideman’s guidance, two Knights earned All-America honors, marking the only two All-America selections for Mount Saint Mary in any sport in a 15-year stretch. He mentored Dylan De Meo, who finished as the 15th-leading scorer in Div. III history at 334 points.
Developing positive and inclusive team culture and emphasizing values like “care for others, growth mindset, leadership, and service in development of the whole person” are hallmarks of Seideman’s coaching philosophy. Under his watch, Mount Saint Mary’s men’s lacrosse program positively impacted the community with over 30 student-athlete-led community service projects, plus collaboration with organizations such as Team Impact and the One Love Foundation. Through these partnerships, Seideman helped incorporate One Love Foundation “Escalation” workshops into Mount Saint Mary first-year experience, athletics, and student club programming.

CAMP REVIEWS
My son thoroughly enjoyed the camp. Had the time of his life. His only complaint was that the dorms the Lacrosse kids were in were really junky compared to the kids at the other camps. Other than that the coaches were great, the meals were great and we will be sending her kid back next year.
My son learned a lot, enjoyed the interaction with the coaches and had fun. In his words, “It was a great experience, Thanks Dad.”
