Coach Lapczynski grew up in Syracuse, NY where I began playing lacrosse in the 2nd grade after my sister Kerry and I watched our older cousins play men's lacrosse. Shortly after we were hooked on the sport! From there I began in the ULA league and went on to play both for the school team and Marcellus Girls Lacrosse Club as well as club lacrosse with Star Riders. Countless tournaments, clinics, and school seasons kept lacrosse a high priority in the Boyle house. During my junior and senior year, I ranked in the top 100 for potential girls' lacrosse college recruits in New York. Although numerous college lacrosse opportunities came, I decided to pursue academics and go to pharmacy school at MCPHS University in Boston for a 6 year accelerated PharmD program where I graduated with my Doctor of Pharmacy in 2018. I then went on to complete a PGY1 Residency specialized in Ambulatory Care at Auburn University. During my time in college, I played recreation lacrosse around Boston and during alumni games on college breaks. After my residency, we moved to Mobile, AL where I began coaching for Mobile Youth Lacrosse and St. Paul's Girls Lacrosse. Upon moving to North Carolina in 2020, I found Red Devil Lacrosse and began coaching girls' lacrosse for them.

The club lacrosse experience is a time of development and exposure – a chance to follow passions and create lasting memories and relationships. All of this happens through camaraderie and time spent with teammates. And most importantly, in the classroom through academic achievement. The game of lacrosse provides an outlet to participate in a competitive athletic environment, where athletes push themselves to excellence and build upon their academic success with new challenges, life skills, and lessons learned through success and failures. This environment allows athletes to take responsibility for their own paths, follow their passion for lacrosse, and find their personal and athletic potential through a sport we love.
I look forward to the upcoming season and helping these young men achieve their personal and athletic potential.
