| THE COACHES |

Mike Hanley has over 40 years experience with Lacrosse. Starting in 1977 he played in Long Island New York for the Long Island Lacrosse club. After a 22 year career in the military as Navy demolition diver, Mike retired from military service and immediately returned to the sport of Lacrosse by coaching in New Port, Rhode Island for two years. As with the Bobcats, this Rhode Island program was brand new and Mike is proud to have been instrumental in growing a program from the beginning to a team that was then able to win the regional championships in the Program's 3rd year. Mike has recently moved to the Gainesville area and is looking forward to a long tenure with the Bobcats and to making this program very successful. He loves the Gainesville area and has proclaimed that he plans on living here for a long a prosperous life at the end of which he will die with Lacrosse sticks in his hands. |
