OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
Welcome to the Coaching Crossover Podcast! Join Matt Dumouchelle, as he invites two coaches from different sports to discuss leadership, team culture and what it takes to thrive under pressure, straight from the mouths of the people who live the grind and shape the standard every day.
In episode 1, we focus on the sports of soccer and lacrosse as we are joined by Wake Forest University men's soccer coach, Bobby Muuss and the general manager and co-head coach of the Saskatchewan Rush of the National Lacrosse League, Derek Keenan.
Coach Muuss has been with Wake Forest since 2015 and all he's done since then is dominate. Since 2015, Coach Muuse has 152 wins and 111 home wins, both the highest total in NCAA D1 soccer. His club has made 14 straight trips to the NCAA Tournament, has won 3 ACC Championships and 2 College Cups. He started his coaching career as an assistant at Wake Forest from 2001-2006 before taking the head coaching job at the University of Denver until 2014. At that time, he returned to Wake Forest, where he has helped 31 of his athletes join the MLS.
Coach Keenan is coming off his 16 th year with the Saskatchewan Rush, where he's won championships in 2016 and 2018 while coming up one game short this past season in the NLL Finals. Keenan is a lacrosse legend in Canada, being named to the Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Fame in 2012 and being named the General Manager of the Year and Coach of the Year three times each – both the most of any individual in NLL history.
We'll discuss building a culture and challenging your leaders, how much personality matches with performance in recruiting and drafting and the great destinations these two coaches go to so they can disconnect.
