Following in the footsteps of some of the biggest names in the history of the sport, Alberici roams the same sideline where Hall of Fame legends such as Jack Emmer, Ace Adams, Dick Edell and F. Morris Touchstone once tread.

A former assistant to Emmer, Alberici returned to the banks of the Hudson River after a nine-year stint as an assistant coach at Duke where he helped the Blue Devils tighten their grip as one of the nation’s premier lacrosse programs.

Alberici became the 10th head coach in Army’s storied history in 2006 and was tasked to fill the big shoes left by his mentor, Emmer, who retired as college lacrosse’s all-time winningest coach in 2005.

The 2020 season was an unprecedented one, but the Black Knights were off to one of their hottest starts with a 6-2 record, holding #18 Massachusetts and #19 Rutgers to eight goals combined, and ranking second in the nation in scoring defense (7.25) before the season was cut short due to COVID-19. Army finished ranked No. 14 in the final Inside Lacrosse ranking. In the opener versus the Minutemen, Alberici’s squad helped boost the program to 800 total wins to mark the fourth team in Division I history to accomplish that feat.

In 2019, Alberici’s team snapped an Army record for most wins in a season with 13. The Cadets defeated three nationally ranked opponents including #18/19 Massachusetts, #8/10 Rutgers and #6/7 Loyola en route to the most games played in a single season and capping the year ranked 14th overall.

Army captured two Patriot League titles in his tenure. The first came in 2010 when Army went 6-0 in the regular season and topped Navy, 11-8, in the championship contest. That season, the Cadets upset No. 2 Syracuse in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. The Black Knights, who compiled a 6-0 conference record during the regular season for the first time that spring, went on to upset No. 2-ranked Syracuse in the first round of the NCAA tournament.

Alberici helped mold Garrett Thul ‘13 into the national Rookie of the Year in 2010 as the attackman set plebe records in goals and points. Thul joined Jeremy Boltus ‘11 - Army’s most recent first team All-American - and 2013 Patriot League Offensive Player of the Year John Glesener as three of Alberici’s most prized recruits as of late.
