Jason Archbell will direct this GameBreaker Lacrosse Camp. Jason was hired in September 2010 and begins his second season on the Penn men's lacrosse staff with head coach Mike Murphy.
Archbell comes to Penn from Washington & Lee University in Lexington, Va., where he spent the last two years as the Generals' assistant coach and defensive coordinator. During his two seasons at W&L, the Generals went 27-10 overall, and they won the Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) championship in 2009. Washington & Lee's defense allowed 7.47 goals per game in 2009, but lowered that to 6.41 in 2010-13th among NCAA Division III programs. In addition to his duties with the lacrosse program, Archbell was an assistant professor of Physical Education at the University.
Archbell was the defensive coordinator and recruiting coordinator at Denison University in 2008, helping the Big Red to a 14-3 record and heading up a defense that allowed a nation-low 5.34 goals per game. As coach of the goalies, he oversaw goalkeeper Alex Baruch who was the national Division 3 Goalie of the Year. Archbell also spent two years as the defensive coordinator at Kenyon College, helping the Lords to a 23-6 record during that time and a spot in the 2006 NCAA Division III Championship. Archbell got his coaching start at Virginia Wesleyan College, where he spent three seasons as a defensive coordinator.
Archbell played his college lacrosse at Hampden-Sydney College, captaining the squad his senior year. The Tigers made three NCAA Championship appearances and won the Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) once during his career. Archbell was a two-time All-ODAC defenseman and earned honorable mention All-America as a senior.
Jason is very excited to direct this Pennsylvania summer lacrosse camp.
