Gabrielli had three All-BIG EAST selections in 2018. Senior James Barclay was a unanimous First Team selection. Junior Tate Boyce joined him on the First Team, while freshman Evan McGreen collected Second Team Honors. Barclay and Boyce also earned All-New England Second Team honors. Barclay was drafted for both the MLL (57th overall) and NLL (ninth overall) at the conclusion of his career. Jake Cook was also taken in the NLL draft (65th overall).

During the 2017 season, Gabrielli led the Friars to their second-consecutive BIG EAST Tournament since the conference began sponsoring men’s lacrosse in 2010. The Friars entered the tournament as the No. 3 seed and advanced to the Championship game. This marked the first time in program history that the program advanced to the final of the BIG EAST Tournament. The Friars finished 10-7 on the season, tying the program’s record for wins.

Gabrielli also led his team to numerous accolades on the 2017 season, most notably two All-America honors. Jarrod Neumann was named to the All-America Second Team and Tate Boyce earned All-America Third team recognition. Neumann and Boyce also earned BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Year and Goalkeeper of the Year, respectively, under the direction of Coach Gabrielli. Five Friars earned BIG EAST honors during the 2017 season. Under the leadership of Gabrielli, the Providence lacrosse coaching staff were named 2017 BIG EAST Coaching Staff of the Year.

During the 2016 season, Gabrielli led the Friars to their first BIG EAST Tournament appearance. The season marked the second-consecutive season under Gabrielli that players earned All-BIG EAST First-Team recognition. Jarrod Neumann ‘17 and Tate Boyce ‘19 were named to the All-BIG EAST First Team. Will Mazzone ‘16 and Michael Perettine ‘16 were also named to the All-BIG EAST Second Team.

In 2015, Gabrielli coached Peter Badgley ‘15 to BIG EAST Goaltender of the Year and All-BIG EAST First Team honors. It marked the first time in program history that a Friar had been named BIG EAST Goaltender of the Year. Additionally, Jarrod Neumann joined Badgley on the All-BIG EAST First Team. The duo made history, again, as the first players in the program to earn All-BIG EAST First-Team honors.

Over the past six seasons, Gabrielli has mentored two student-athletes to BIG EAST Goaltender of the Year (2015, 2017).
