MBU Names New Men's Lacrosse Coach

Missouri Baptist University Director of Athletics Thomas Smith has announced the hiring of Andrew Joly as the new Head Men's Lacrosse Coach. Coach Joly joins the staff at MBU after having coached at the high school level for the past four years. Coach Joly's most recent assignment was with DeSmet Jesuit High School, a close neighbor to the MBU campus.

"I am excited about the enthusiasm that Coach Joly brings to this position," said Mr. Smith. "I am confident that he can help build the MBU Men's Lacrosse Team into a competive program."
