Bob Dachille

Bob Dachille is entering his second season as head coach of the Lander women's lacrosse program. Dachille became the Bearcats' first women's lacrosse coach when he was hired in July 2018.


In the program's first season, Lander ranked 21st nationally in shot percentage, while goalkeeper Brenah Sarell finished seventh in the nation in saves.


Prior to his arrival at Lander, Dachille spent four seasons as the head coach of Presbyterian. Dachille coached Maura Talvacchia, who finished her career ranked No. 2 on the NCAA Division I all-time list for turnovers caused. Talvacchia was a first-team all-conference selection in 2017 and led the nation in caused turnovers per game, while ranking third in ground balls per game along with goalie Kayla Koch. His 2016 squad led the nation in ground balls per game. Off the field, his Blue Hose teams excelled academically, earning Intercollegiate Women's Lacrosse Coaches Association (IWLCA) Honor Squad accolades in all four years of his tenure.


Dachille served as the head coach at Erskine for three seasons before taking over at Presbyterian. The Flying Fleet set the school record for single-season wins in all three years under Dachille's leadership, making the Conference Carolinas Tournament in 2014 for the first time in program history. Dachille coached 2014 Conference Carolinas Freshman of the Year Ali Cole as well as 10 all-conference players during his three years in Due West. Dachille's team was named to the IWLCA Honor Squad in each of his three seasons.


Dachille has served as camp director for lacrosse camps throughout South Carolina including the Nike Lacrosse Camp and Carolina Revolution.


Prior to coaching at Erskine, Dachille was an assistant lacrosse coach at Medway High School in Medway, Ma., where he helped guide the team to the second ever appearance in the state tournament. Dachille also spent one season as an intern with the Boston Blazers of the National Lacrosse League.

I have used the Soccer in College site for 8 years, and it has helped me keep my personal and soccer information up to date, and has helped be track college contacts and interest. I think the site helped me prepare for college offers, and helped me determine that I wanted to play for UNC.
