Thatcher earned his Bachelor degree in Recreation and Fitness from Northern Kentucky and his Master of Special Education from Mount St. Joseph.

Thatcher was the Director of Fellowship of Christian Athletes Lacrosse since 2012 in which he grew and established the club lacrosse ministry in Southwest Ohio. Thatcher also worked as the Athletic Performance coach for Anderson High School from 2004-2020.

"The opportunity to become the first full-time women's lacrosse coach at Thomas More is exciting and humbling at the same time," said Thatcher. "I am looking forward to strengthen and develop the women's lacrosse program and help put Thomas More lacrosse on the map."

"I want to build a strong leadership culture that will consist of a close-knit team that develops into a family, building on what is already a strong community here at Thomas More," noted Thatcher.

"We are looking forward to rising to a more competitive NAIA program by adding numbers and gaining more lacrosse experience," Thatcher said.

Thatcher added "I want to thank President Chillo and Athletic Director Terry Connor for the great opportunity to become the women's lacrosse coach at Thomas More University."

Thomas More women's lacrosse will resume play in the spring of 2022 while the men's program will spend their first year as a club.
