Coach Reynolds and Landers Receive the IWLCA National Coaching Staff of the Year!

Waleksa, GA - Head Coach Roy Reynolds of Reinhardt (Ga.) was named the 2024 NAIA Women's Lacrosse Coach of the Year in his eighth season as head coach of the Eagles. Accompanied by Assistant Coach Brian Landers, Reynolds led his team to the championship game for the first time since women's lacrosse became a championship and ended the season with a 17-1 record. RU's only loss of the year came from NCAA opponent, Kennesaw State University. The Eagles then went on an impressive 17-game win streak before claiming the NAIA Championship and picked up the Appalachian Athletic Conference Tournament Champion title along the way.

This was Reinhardt Women's Lacrosse's first NAIA National Championship after coming very close the past few seasons.  Many records were broken by the team and individuals along the way to make this one of the most successful seasons in Reinhardt Women's Lacrosse history.  The team will look to add depth to their program this year after saying goodbye to several top-level performers like Shelby O'Neil, Jillian Mello, and Ashley Steele just to name a few. Look for good things to come as the program keeps progressing and advancing the sport in the North Georgia area.
