The Long Island native brings a multitude of coaching experience in the local lacrosse landscape. This past year, he served as the offensive coordinator at Long Island Lutheran. Under O' Reilly's direction the Crusaders offense generated 13.5 goals per contest and won its first-ever NYSAIS state title.
Additionally, he has been involved coaching with the Express Lacrosse Club and the Storm Lacrosse Academy for the last six years.
"Through his time as the offensive coordinator at Long Island Lutheran and his expansive club experience with LI Express, he has worked with and developed relationships with many of the best lacrosse minds in the area," Justin Turri said. "Quinn understands our University and athletic department as well, adding a unique perspective for our players to learn from."
