Texas Lacrosse
A New Era Under Coach DeDonatis
After winning the LSA for a third consecutive year and appearing in the National Quarterfinals back-to-back, Texas Lacrosse enters 2026 under new Head Coach Luciano DeDonatis. The former Philadelphia Waterdogs Assistant Coach also led Boston College to a PCLL Championship, a national tournament appearance, and consistent top-10 rankings during his tenure as Head Coach. As a player, he was a three-time All-American long stick midfielder at Grand Canyon University and helped capture the 2015 MCLA National Championship. The Longhorns are eager to get to work this fall under Coach DeDonatis and continue building momentum for another strong season.
Texas Men's Lacrosse
The University of Texas men's lacrosse program was established in 1973 by Denny Bahm, Don Carnes, Bob Daigh and Kelly Anderson, who had a passion for the sport and a desire to continue playing it in college. The first game was played against Texas A&M in 1974, and since then the team has competed in every season. Over the years, the program has had several significant events and successful seasons, including a game in 1976 against San Antonio LC, which was the first time the Longhorns beat a non-collegiate team. Bob Korba, who was a founder of one of the original three Texas lacrosse teams, played a major role in the program as a player, coach, and co-founder of the Men’s Club Lacrosse Association (MCLA). Additionally, several members of the 1974 team were inducted into the University of Texas Men's Lacrosse Hall of Fame, including Denny Bahm and Don Carnes.
As the sport of lacrosse continues to grow in popularity, the University of Texas men's lacrosse program will continue to attract top talent and draw support from fans and boosters. With a dedicated coaching staff and talented players, the Longhorns have the potential to compete at the highest level and achieve great success in the years to come.
