FRANKLIN, Mass. – Vice President of Athletics & Recreation Geoff Lerner is pleased to announce the hiring of Andrea Morris as the new Head Women's Lacrosse Coach at Dean College.

"Andrea brings tremendous experience in player development and leadership," Lerner expressed. "I'm confident she will make a great impact on our women's lacrosse program. We're excited to welcome her to Dean and can't wait to see all that she accomplishes here."

Coach Morris joins the Bulldogs with an extensive resume in the New England lacrosse community. Prior to coaching, Morris played collegiate lacrosse at Division III Wesleyan University, competing in the historic New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC). In 2014, Morris relocated to Massachusetts to pursue a career in coaching. After a three-year stint with Cape Cod Lacrosse, she joined Aces Lacrosse in 2017, earning a promotion to Director in just one season.

"I am incredibly excited to work with the amazing community at Dean College," Morris said. "The athletes, coaches, and staff are passionate and committed to the Bulldog way of life. It is an honor to be selected for this role, and I can't wait to get started."

Morris has coached at several levels of lacrosse, including club, high school, and college. She recently served as a Volunteer Assistant Coach with both Division III Curry College and Massachusetts Maritime Academy.

Most notably, Morris joined Cape Cod Academy in 2024, leading the Seahawks to a 14-4 season and an elite eight appearance in the MIAA Division III Tournament. One year later, the team (over 70 percent underclassmen) finished 10-5 with a sweet sixteen appearance.

Enjoying success at all levels, Coach Morris opened her own club organization, East Coast Rebels, to help develop the next generation of women's lacrosse athletes. Morris has helped place athletes in NCAA Division I, Division II, and Division III levels, as well as several ISL boarding schools.

Coach Morris graduated from Wesleyan University in 2000. She currently resides in Middleboro, Massachusetts with her husband and three kids.
