WASHINGTON, Pa. -- Head coach Kevin Kustron recently announced the hiring Gabe Pearlman as Intern Assistant Coach for the Washington & Jefferson College men's lacrosse program.

"I couldn't be happier to have Coach Pearlman joining our program.  He has a great lacrosse mind and brings a ton of experience," said Kustron. "We look forward to tapping into both.  He should be a great addition to the team and the college."

Pearlman joins W&J after serving as Assistant Coach/Defensive Coordinator for Stevenson High School in Lincolnshire, Ill. since 2018. During this time, Pearlman also competed with the Chicago Outlaws, which plays in the Great Plains Box Lacrosse League.

No stranger to Division III lacrosse, Pearlman competed collegiately at Beloit College in Wisconsin. A four-year member of the program, he played the long-stick midfielder position with the Buccaneers. He appeared in all 60 games during his four years as a Buccaneer. Beloit finished with a program-high 10 wins during Pearlman's junior season in 2017.

Pearlman graduated cum laude with his bachelor's degree in Applied Chemistry from Beloit in the spring of 2018. He also studied biology as a minor at Beloit. He was a Dean's List student and listed on the Midwest Lacrosse Conference All-Academic Team.
