Marisa Marcellino is entering her second season as an assistant coach with the Gettysburg College women’s lacrosse program in 2012-13.
In her first season at Gettysburg, the Bullets posted a 19-2 overall record, won the Centennial Conference title for the first time in six years, and advanced to the NCAA Division III Tournament for the 11th consecutive season. The Bullets earned a No. 1 national ranking for six weeks before finishing the season fifth.
Marcellino brings a wealth of experience to the Bullets’ program as a former NCAA Division I student-athlete at Columbia University. She starred for four seasons on the Lions’ women’s lacrosse team and finished as the program’s all-time points and assists leader with 164 and 87, respectively. She was a three-time All-Ivy selection and was named All-Region twice. Marcellino served as team captain twice and was tabbed the Lions’ lacrosse MVP in 2008.
After graduating from Columbia with a degree in Urban Studies in 2008, Marcellino spent time working as a paralegal before a stint working in ESPN’s advertising department. In the fall of 2010, she returned to lacrosse as a Local Development Officer with the English Lacrosse Association in Reading, England. While in England, she competed on the Reading Lacrosse Club and played on the England West Territorial Team.
A Washington, D.C., native, Marcellino attended St. John’s College High School where she was an all-conference soccer and lacrosse player.
