Steve Koudelka wants his men’s lacrosse players at the University of Lynchburg to be of the right mindset the moment they step onto campus as freshmen. It might be natural for those student-athletes, the coach explained, to want to test the water of their new environment, or to see what one of the nation’s preeminent Division III programs can do to advance their careers. But, waiting at the edge of the pool, only dipping a toe in, could mean missing out on the joy that comes with jumping in. “It’s like if you go to a friend’s house and you have an hour to swim. … If you only jump in the last 15 minutes, you only got to swim 15 minutes. You’ll realize, ‘I wish I got to swim for an hour,’” Koudelka said recently, as he played out the analogy in describing his program.
