Presented at the Brown Lacrosse Banquet, Fall 2009

The Dom Starsia Coaches Award

The recently named Dom Starsia coaches’ award is given by the coaching staff to the player who best represents the spirit of Brown lacrosse year in and year out. Thinking of the description “spirit of Brown lacrosse” brings to mind several great men of this program, but there is one who best characterizes the true traits of Brown Lacrosse. What are these “True Traits?” — the joy of fierce competition, the endless pursuit of physical and technical greatness, and a love of life. This year’s winner is the face and smile of Brown Lacrosse. His infectious devotion, commitment and loyalty to Brown University and our Lacrosse program are the greatest. While his outstanding play does come close to matching his over-the-top spirit and enthusiasm (he was our 6th leading goal scorer in 2009 and 3rd for ground balls), it is the energy and vibe he brought to each practice, each game, each lift… always…. that made him our spiritual and emotional leader. He returned to campus each spring physically fit and prepared. Few pumped up his teammates more: he understood that one of his roles as a captain was to put personal goals secondary to the team’s goals. Few on our team played with his intellect and creativity. He was our leader, and he did things the right way, and all with that smile. The 2009 Dom Starsia Coaches’ Award recipient: Urban Studies graduate Jack Walsh ‘09.

Note: Dom Starsia is a Hall of Fame coach at UVA; he is also a Brown alumnus and former head coach at Brown.
