Following more than four decades patrolling the lacrosse sidelines, including the last 34 at Gettysburg College, head coach Hank Janczyk has announced his impending retirement following the conclusion of the 2021 campaign.
As a coach, leader, mentor and friend to many men and women staff and student-athletes alike during his long tenure at Gettysburg, Janczyk leaves behind an incredible legacy that extends well beyond lacrosse fields and campus borders.
“It’s been very meaningful to spend a lot of my life coaching men’s lacrosse at Gettysburg College,” Janczyk said. “It has been an honor to coach and work with all of the many young men that have come into my life. I thank you for your patience with me; even with all of my faults, you managed to grow into some of the finest people I’ve ever known. It’s been a privilege to work with so many great colleagues, some have even become my best
