BlackJack Elite: BlackJack is the nick name of the recently departed head coach of Bellarmine University Jack McGetrick who passed away from his fight with cancer. John Desko of Syracuse said this of Jack McGetrick,"..was a wonderful coach. His ability to mix his lacrosse knowledge with enthusiasm and sense of humor was an art. My memories of him will last forever." I feel the same way as coach Desko. I want kids to love the game and have fun the way it should be coached!

Sporting the BlackJack
Almost a 1 1/2 years ago Jack McGetrick passed away. In honor of him, Johns Hopkins wore his sticker (the spade with the lacrosse stick and ribbon) on their helmets in a pre-season match against Notre Dame back in 2011.
