The first full-time womens lacrosse coach in Saint Josephs history, David Keenan focuses on recruiting players who fit within the Team culture he has championed since his earliest days as a coach.

Coach Keenan has found success curating a team of strong and serious students who happen to be passionate about playing lacrosse. Most importantly, they buy into the Teams expectations and values and are willing to provide support and encouragement to their teammates. The result of this proven formula is a Team that loves to both play and spend time together, helping cement bonds that pay dividends on and off the field. The Teams performance, and his career record since taking over the program, speaks for itself. In his first complete season as Head Coach, his Monks ran the table through the regular season and conference championship and headed into the NCAA Tournament with a 20-0 record.

Keenan, who joined the women's lacrosse program as an assistant coach in the fall of 2018, has an impressive background - both playing and coaching - in the sport of lacrosse. A Long Island native, Keenan was an All-American goalie at Bethpage HS and went on to earn a scholarship to play DI Lacrosse at North Carolina State University.

Keenan was instrumental in bringing girls lacrosse to the Lakes Region, where he began with a small youth team, eventually building and running a full, thriving lacrosse program that served local girls from 3rd through 12th grade. In 2018, just the fourth year of his Lake Region High School Girls Varsity program, his team won their first State Championship.

In addition to his regular full-time coaching duties at Saint Josephs, Keenan is heavily involved in his home and college communities, as he volunteers his time coaching at clinics and programs run by various universities, and club programs and serves as a head coach at Wicked Lacrosse travel program.

Coach Keenan lives in Naples, Maine with his wife and two daughters.
