Peter Burke, who guided the Holy Cross men’s lacrosse team to two straight promising seasons, has been dismissed from his position.
The College announced the change Friday:
“Holy Cross Director of Athletics Marcus Blossom has announced a change in the leadership of the men's lacrosse program, effective immediately,” read the post. “Assistant coach Shayne Lynch will serve as the Crusaders' interim head coach until a replacement has been selected.
“A national search for the next head coach will begin immediately and continue until an appointment is made.”
