Marykate Edmunds

Marykate Edmunds enters her second season in 2023 after being named the Knights' head coach in January 2022.


Edmunds helped guide the Knights to a 15-4 overall record and 8-1 in SUNYAC play during her first season at the helm. Edmunds led Geneseo to their first NCAA Tournament appearance since 2014, and won their first round matchup 19-2 before falling to the eventual national champion, Middlebury, in the second round. The Knights swept the major SUNYAC awards, with Hannah Marafioti taking home Offensive Player of the Year, Meg Seeley Defensive Player of the Year, and Madelynn Brown Rookie of the Year. The Knights earned four other All-SUNYAC honors, as well as three All-Region honors. Marafioti was then named an IWLCA Second-Team All-American.


Prior to Geneseo, Edmunds spent three seasons as the women's lacrosse head coach at State University of New York Athletic Conference (SUNYAC) rival Fredonia, where she grew the Blue Devils' women's lacrosse program and led the team through the 2019 season as well as the pandemic-shortened 2020 and 2021 campaigns. In Edmunds' first season with the Blue Devils, the team doubled its win total. Edmunds also helped the team increase its overall GPA from 2.69 in Spring 2018, the semester before she began as head coach, to 3.47 in Spring 2021.


Before taking over at Fredonia, Edmunds served as an assistant coach at St. John Fisher for two seasons. A St. John Fisher alumni, Edmunds helped lead her alma mater to back-to-back Empire 8 Women's Lacrosse Championships and NCAA Tournament berths.


Edmunds also spent one season as an assistant coach at SUNY Poly, where she helped guide the Wildcats to their first-ever conference championship and NCAA Tournament berth in 2016.


During her playing career, Edmunds was a three-time All-Conference selection and two-time Empire 8 All-Tournament Team honoree for the Cardinals. Edmunds led the squad to three NCAA Tournament appearances in four seasons as a starter.


Edmunds earned a Bachelor of Science in Sport Management at St. John Fisher and completed her Master's degree in Athetic Administration from Concordia University-Irvine (Calif.).
