Summary
Ian O’Hearn became the MIHS Head Coach in 2001, thinking it might be a pit stop. Twenty-five years later, he’s the winningest lacrosse coach in Washington State history and architect of the largest youth program in the state.
This conversation is about what it actually takes to build something that lasts:
--the NY high school program that shaped his philosophy
--the loss that made him realize he was made to coach
--how he met his wife
--why he’s pushed multi-sport athletes for 25 years
--how a preschool-to-varsity pipeline is the foundation of the team's competitive advantage, and
--what parents consistently get wrong on the sideline and in the college recruiting process.
Loyalty. Tradition. Discipline. It’s not just a slogan. It’s 25 years of deliberate work — and this is the story of how it got built.
