Collin Welsh - Christian Brothers Memphis

04/29/23 • 30 min

Collin Welsh has been at the helm of Christian Brothers since 2013.

We chatted about the evolution of Memphis and Tennessee lacrosse as whole, the Baltimore native's early days in town after playing D1 lacrosse and then coaching coaching with Denison legend Mike Caravanna at Woodberry Forest, as well as box lacrosse and sixes with his organization 901 lacrosse.

We'll finish with what's next for Tennessee after the sport approved state sanctioning.
