Syracuse women’s lacrosse: Who will replace Gary Gait as head coach?

Well that was insane.

On Sunday evening, the Syracuse Orange lacrosse world got turned upside down with the news that John Desko would be announcing his retirement and Gary Gait would be replacing him as head coach of the men’s program.

Obviously, this means that both SU lacrosse programs experienced coaching changes in one shot. While Gait becomes the fifth head coach in the men’s illustrious, 106-year history, the women are now searching for the person to become the third head coach in their ownhistory.

Will John Wildhack focus his search on one of many prominent women’s lacrosse alumni now in the coaching ranks, or will he turn his attention outside the Syracuse network?
