Michael Scerbo - Head Women's Lacrosse Coach, Duquesne University

He led the Dukes to an 11-5 record in his first year with the Dukes and finished tied for fourth in the Atlantic 10 posting a 4-3 league mark. He saw five of his players earn Atlantic 10 All-Conference honors which included two first team picks (Kelly Mulford, Krista Mann), a second team selection (Stacie Pollock), an honorable mention (Courtney Tamasitis) and an All-Rookie pick (Kathleen McNish). Krista Mann was tabbed as the Atlantic 10 Defensive Player of the Year and three players (Caroline Gallagher, Mann, Tamasitis) earned a spot on the Academic All-Conference squad.

At Ohio State, Scerbo helped guide the Buckeyes to a pair of NCAA tournament appearances (2002 & 2003) and one American Lacrosse Conference title (2003). OSU won a school-record 14 matches in 2003 (14-4) and posted an 11-5 record in 2002.

His squad was ranked in the Division II Top Ten from 1998-2001, while producing numerous All-Americans and several Deep South District Team and North-South Senior All-Star Team members. Scerbo posted a 33-24 record at Limestone College including a 10-1 mark - good for a No. 2 national ranking - in his final season in 2001.

Professionally, Scerbo has chaired the IWLCA Division II Coaches' Poll Committee and was also a member of the NCAA Division II Women's Lacrosse Committee. He played a vital role in the development of the NCAA Division II Women's Lacrosse National Tournament, which debuted in 2001. Scerbo, who is regarded as one of the bright, up-and-coming women's lacrosse coaches in the country, was nominated by his coaching peers for the prestigious IWLCA National Division II Coach of the Year award in 2001. Aside from coaching, Scerbo was also an Associate Athletic Director and an Admissions Representative at Limestone College.
