Springfield College

Kevin Tierney ‘24 returns to the Springfield College men’s lacrosse program as a graduate assistant coach for the 2025-2026 academic year and will serve as an assistant coach for the offense.

In his final season with the Pride, Tierney was named to the NEWMAC All-Conference Second Team after leading the team in assists with 19 to go along with the second-most goals with 21 and second-most points with 40. He also registered 23 ground balls and five caused turnovers. Along with a few of his teammates, Tierney was selected to play in the NEILA East-West All-Star Game which pulls from men’s lacrosse players from around New England across Division I, II, and II for a premier lacrosse showcase of the region’s top student-athletes.

Tierney has experience coaching at the club level where he has been a head coach at 3D New England South since last fall. As a head coach, he takes the lead on team operations, practice planning, and in-game decision making. He works to design and implement both offensive and defensive systems and also takes the time to provide individualized skill instruction with his players to create player development plans. 

Tierney graduated from Springfield with a bachelor’s degree in movement and sport studies with a minor in psychology and started his master’s in athletic leadership last fall.
