A storied chapter in college lacrosse came to a close on Tuesday when Jim Berkman announced he is stepping down as head coach of Salisbury University’s men’s lacrosse program.
Berkman, who holds the distinction of being the all-time winningest coach in the history of college lacrosse, spent 38 years leading the Sea Gulls — a career that earned him a place in the hall of fame.
The retirement announcement marks the end of a remarkable run for one of the most decorated coaches the sport has ever seen. Berkman’s tenure at Salisbury, Maryland spanned nearly four decades, during which he built the program into a powerhouse recognized across collegiate athletics.
