Profile
Jim Rogalski enters his third season as defensive coordinator for the Wolverines, after previously serving as head coach at Lafayette for five seasons (2013-17)

He was promoted to the role of associate head coach for the Wolverines in the summer of 2019.

In addition to his coordinator duties in his initial season in Ann Arbor, he helped guide goalie Tommy Heidt to the top goals-against mark in program history (10.11).

Prior to his time at Lafayette, he was the head man at Division III Scranton, where he led the Royals to the 2011 Landmark Conference Championship and the program's first NCAA Tournament appearance in his first season on the sidelines. He compiled an 18-15 record after two consecutive winning seasons and also coached Scranton's first All-American.

Prior to taking over at Scranton, Rogalski spent six seasons on the coaching staff at Rutgers, beginning in 2004. He spent three seasons as the head assistant lacrosse coach before being promoted to associate head coach in 2007. In his first three seasons under Jim Stagnitta at Rutgers, Rogalski handled various coaching and administrative duties, including game and practice planning, recruiting, monitoring NCAA compliance, as well as organizing clinics for local youth players and youth coaches. In his role as associate head coach, he oversaw the Scarlet Knights' recruiting efforts, which resulted in nationally-ranked recruiting classes by Inside Lacrosse magazine in 2007 and 2008 and commitments from five High School All-Americans for the 2011 season.

He has also served as an assistant coach at Drexel University, Washington & Lee University, Goucher College, Western New England College, and St. Mary's College of Maryland, his alma mater.

During his undergraduate days at St. Mary's, Rogalski was a four-year letterman and three-year starter, in addition to a two-time All-Capital Athletic Conference honoree.

Rogalski is the owner of Ski Lax, Inc., and co-owner of Coast to Coast Lacrosse Camp, Inc. He and his wife, Susan, have two daughters, Ella and Lia, and a son, Colton.
