STEVE EIGENBROT,

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS

Towson University President Kim Schatzel announced that Dr. Steven Eigenbrot would join TU as its Director of Athletics starting in March 2022. Eigenbrot joins TU from the University of South Carolina, where he served as the Deputy Athletics Director.

As Director of Athletics, Eigenbrot reports directly to interim president Dr. Melanie Perreault, serving on the President’s Cabinet and leading TU’s NCAA Division I intercollegiate athletics program, including the approximately 100 staff members who support 19 sports teams with more than 600 student-athletes.

In his first year in the role, Eigenbrot hired five head coaches: Pete Shinnick (football), Laura Harper (women’s basketball), Tony Bruno (swimming & diving), Consandria Walker-Hall (track & field) and Katie Salem (field hockey). He also launched Goh Tigers, the innovative marketing brand for the athletics department, and added beer sales to the concession stands for university sporting events at Unitas Stadium and SECU Arena.

Eigenbrot was selected after a nationwide search, co-chaired by the former Vice Chair of the University System of Maryland Board of Regents Barry Gossett and former Chair of TU’s Board of Visitors Fran Soistman ‘79.

At the University of South Carolina, Eigenbrot served in various leadership roles over 12 years. Most recently, he served as Deputy Director of

Athletics, overseeing fundraising, ticketing and a variety of facilities projects. Prior to that, he was Executive Associate Athletics Director for Development and CEO of the Gamecock Club, which raised funds to support student-athletes. He was the primary administrator for men’s basketball, baseball and both Gamecock golf programs from 2019-22.

Eigenbrot joined South Carolina in 2010 as the Assistant Director of Major Gifts. Recently, he directed $22.5 million in renovations to WilliamsBrice Stadium, the largest project at the stadium in university history. He also led the $248 million Garnet Way Campaign and fundraising for the $50 million Cyndi and Kenneth Long Family Football Operations Center.

Soistman adds “Steve’s experience in leading key, strategic initiatives that leveraged alumni and philanthropy stood out during this search. I’m confident that his combination of experience, energy and leadership skills will help our student-athletes win both on the field and in the classroom, and prepare them for success throughout their lives.”

Prior to South Carolina, Eigenbrot directed the annual fund for University of Nevada-Las Vegas Athletics. He holds a doctorate in higher education leadership from UNLV, a masters in sport administration and business administration from Ohio University, and a bachelor’s degree from the University of Maryland. He was born in Bethlehem, PA and went to high school in Southern New Jersey.

JOHNNY UNITAS ® STADIUM

Minnegan Field at Johnny Unitas® Stadium is home to Towson’s football, men’s lacrosse and track and field programs.

The sports complex, which underwent a $32 million renovation over a three-year span, seats 11,198 spectators.

Stadium renovations included an addition of 6,000 seats, an artificial turf, entry level plaza, concession stands, new restrooms, ticket booths, a four-tier press box, an elaborate field house and a promenade that conveniently connects the northside and southside seating areas. In addition, a new FieldTurf Revolution playing surface was added during the summer of 2020.

The four-story, 48,000 square-foot field house provides Towson’s student-athletes with an excellent collegiate facility. It includes spacious, modern lockerooms for each of its sports, an impressive athletic training facility, classrooms, conference rooms, an upscale equipment room, an academic resource center, a video-editing room and coaches offices. The stadium is lighted for night play. The field house recently had a new academic center built on the third floor, thanks to a generous gift from Fran Soistman.

A four-level press box rises high above the stadium on its south side. Each booth can comfortably seat six persons. The top floor, or camera deck, is the primary location for television broadcasts and game filming.

The complex is named in honor of two legends - one a coach and educator who served Towson University for over 40 years, and the other a former professional football player who is widely considered as the greatest NFL quarterback of all time.

Donald “Doc” Minnegan was a teacher, coach, physical education department chairman and Director of Athletics at Towson for more than four decades. He arrived at Towson in 1927 and coached its soccer team until 1966.

Doc’s soccer teams were highly successful, winning a total of 156 games, and 66 of 77

between 1930 and 1936, including a school record 34 straight. His coaching led to Towson championships in baseball, basketball, track and swimming, as well as soccer.

Doc, who died in 2002, just two weeks shy of his 100th birthday, was inducted into the National Soccer Coaches Association of America’s Hall of Fame in 1992. During his tenure as Director of Athletics, Doc established football as an intercollegiate sport at Towson in 1969.

The stadium carried his name from its opening in 1978 until the renovation. In accordance with that tribute, the field remains Minnegan Field in his memory.

Johnny Unitas, too, had a deep connection with the University. The former Baltimore Colts great was the parent of three Towson students.

Several weeks prior to his untimely passing, Johnny began serving as community liaison for Tiger Athletics. His role was to assist the university in obtaining a naming rights partner for the University’s new stadium. The legendary Golden Arm died suddenly, less than a week after tossing his last pass to commemorate the opening of Towson’s new stadium at ceremonies on September 5, 2002.

High spirits returned when Sandy Unitas chose to assume her husband’s role with Towson. With Johnny’s two youngest children as Towson students, Sandy sought to memorialize her husband’s legacy by having the stadium named Johnny Unitas® Stadium.

MEN’S HEAD COACH SHAWN NADELEN

Now in his 12th season at the helm of the program, Shawn Nadelen has the Towson men’s lacrosse team poised to continue dominance in the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA).

In 2022, Towson earned a share of the CAA regular season title and a trip to the CAA title game. Towson earned a victory over then #20 UMass and had four players earn All-CAA First Team: James Avanzato, Colby Barsz, Shane Brennan and Koby Smith.

During the 2019 season, Nadelen and the Tigers made their fifth-straight appearance in the CAA Championship game, winning the CAA Tournament and hosting a first-round game of the 2019 NCAA Tournament.

During the 2017 campaign, Towson reached NCAA Championship Weekend for the first time since the 2001 campaign, beating #8 Penn State and #2 Syracuse along the way. Since Nadelen took over the program, Towson has amassed an overall record of 83-50 (.624). During the 2016 CAA Tournament, Nadelen became the fastest coach to win 50 Division I games at Towson and is the second-fastest to the mark including the program’s Division II days. He became just the second coach in the program’s history to be named CAA Coach of the Year, winning the honor in 2016.

A highly decorated and respected collegiate and professional player, Nadelen spent seven seasons as an assistant coach for former Towson Head Coach Tony Seaman, including two years as the team’s associate head coach and defensive coordinator. Since Nadelen arrived at Towson in

2004, he has sparked a defensive resurgence in which the Tigers have allowed an average of nine or fewer goals four times and finished among the nation’s top 20 defenses twice, including 2011 when the Tigers allowed 8.23 goals per game.

Nadelen began his coaching career in 2002 as an assistant coach at Princeton University for the legendary Bill Tierney and helped Princeton reach the national championship game. The next two seasons, he was part of a Princeton squad that had an 11-4 record and reached the NCAA Tournament each year.

A four-year starter and a senior captain for Johns Hopkins, Nadelen moved from midfield to close defense in his junior season. He led the Blue Jays to the NCAA semifinals twice and was named an All-American in 2001.

In addition to coaching, Nadelen had a very successful playing career at the indoor and outdoor professional level. A three-time Major League Lacrosse (MLL) champion with the Chesapeake Bayhawks, Nadelen played 11 seasons with the franchise.

Nadelen spent 10 years as a player in the National Lacrosse League (NLL). He played seven seasons for the Philadelphia Wings after stints with the New Jersey Storm and Minnesota Swarm.

One of his greatest highlights as a player came in the summer of 2010 when he recovered from a serious knee injury to help Team USA win the gold medal at the Federation of International Lacrosse World Championships in England.

A native of Rochester, New York, Nadelen is married to the former Mary Ciolek, who is a certified athletic trainer and a member of Towson’s kinesiology faculty. The couple has three children: Megan, William and Luke.

WOMEN’S COACH SONIA LAMONICA

The Tiger women’s lacrosse team continues to be a dominant force in the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) under Head Coach Sonia LaMonica.

In 2022, LaMonica earned the fifth CAA Coach of the Year award of her career. She led the Tigers in one of the toughest nonconference schedules in the country, featuring nine teams mentioned in the ILWomen/IWLCA poll at some point over the season. In CAA play, the team dominated, going 5-1 to clinch the No. 1 seed in the 2022 CAA Tournament for the first time since 2014.

The 2023 season will be LaMonica’s 13th at Towson. LaMonica picked up her 125th victory as a head coach when Towson beat George Mason on April 4, 2021. She is now 128-84 (.604) at Towson and won eight games during one season at Mount St. Mary’s. She has also earned a CAA mark of 45-15 and a home record of 63-31 In her 11 seasons at the helm, the Tigers have won four Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) tournament titles and earned spots in the NCAA Tournament seven times.

Four members of the Towson women’s lacrosse team received CAA honors for the 2021 regular season. Defender Sami Chenoweth, midfielder Blair Pearre and midfielder Lindsey Marshall were named to the All-CAA First Team. Pearre, Marshall and defensive midfielder Olivia Malamphy earned All-Rookie honors. Pearre was selected as the CAA Rookie of the Year. Pearre and Chenoweth were two of the 66 women’s lacrosse players named to the Tewaaraton Watch List.

The Tigers began the 2021 season winning eight-of-10 games, including a 13-7 victory over then #8/#10 Loyola. Towson was ranked as high as No. 11 in the Inside Lacrosse Media poll media poll and spent nine consecutive weeks (March 1-April 26) in the IWLCA Division I Coaches Top 25 and finished the season ranked No. 22. Towson earned a spot in the NCAA Tournament after playing the fifth strongest schedule in the nation.

A native of Darlington, South Australia, LaMonica (pronounced La - MAHN - ick - uh) was named the 10th head coach in the 34-year history of the Towson women’s lacrosse program. She returned to lead the Tigers after a one-year stint as the head coach at Mount St. Mary’s University.

Prior to becoming the Mountaineers’ head coach, LaMonica spent two seasons as a member of Missy Doherty’s staff at Towson and helped the Tigers win a pair of Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) championships.

Before joining the Tigers’ staff, LaMonica was an assistant coach at the University of Denver, helping the Pioneers to a 15-5 record during the 2006 season.

In addition to her success as a coach, LaMonica is a member of the Australian National Team. She helped Australia win the gold medal at the 2005 World Cup Championship and a silver medal at the 2009 World Cup Championship. In the summer of 2013, LaMonica played a key role in helping Australia earn a bronze medal at the World Cup Championship in Canada.

Named to the 2005 IFWLA All-World Team, she was also a member of the U-19 Australian National Team that won the silver medal at the 1999 World Championships and was also the recipient of the U21 South Australian Sportswoman of the Year award.

A 2003 graduate of the University of Maryland, LaMonica was a three-year starter for the Terrapins. She earned first team All-America honors and was a candidate for the Tewaaraton Trophy during her senior season after leading Maryland to the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) championship. A team captain during her senior season, she was a member of three ACC championship teams and helped the Terrapins win the 2000 and 2001 NCAA titles.

LaMonica scored 111 goals in her college career, including 49 goals as a senior, along with 55 assists.

Formerly Sonia Judd, LaMonica is married to former University of Maryland men’s lacrosse standout Michael LaMonica. The couple resides in Parkton, Md. with their sons, Luca and Bodhi and daughter, Marley.

TIGER FIELD

Tiger Field, part of the Lower Fields Complex, is the home of the Towson women’s lacrosse and women’s soccer teams.

The complex underwent a massive renovation during the 2018-19 academic year as part of the construction of the Lower Fields Complex, including two full-field surfaces, with lighting and scoreboards, for all of Towson’s field sports and a third practice field. Football, men’s/women’s lacrosse and soccer all use the complex as a practice facility.

Phase two was completed in the summer of 2020 and included a new grandstand, concessions, restrooms, and press box.

The complex sits in a valley southwest of Johnny Unitas® Stadium and below SECU Arena.

Towson women’s lacrosse announced that its 2021 season would be the first at Tiger Field after playing in Unitas Stadium.
