The @HCrossMLAX team is currently being informed that Peter Burke is no longer the team’s head coach, sources tell me. I’m told that assistant Shayne Lynch will take over on an interim basis.
An inquiry was not immediately returned. More to come on @Inside Lacrosse. Terry Foy (@TerenceFoy) January 8, 2021
Burke was set to enter his third third season at the helm for the Crusaders, having led them to a 7-7 finish as an interim head coach in 2019 and a 4-3 start in 2020. He took over for Judd Lattimore, who was placed on administrative leave during the 2018 season. Lynch will be the program’s fifth head coach since 2011, when Jim Morrissey took over for Adam Pascal.
