Kevin Kustron (Salisbury '08) was named the head men's lacrosse coach at Washington & Jefferson prior to the 2015 season.

A graduate of nearby Peters Township High School, Kustron served as an assistant coach at W&J before taking over the program in the summer of 2014.

Kustron led the Presidents to an 8-8 record with a 3-4 league mark in 2019. A total of five Presidents were tabbed All-PAC performers, including first team recognition to Benjamin Ward. 

Under Kustron's guidance, W&J finished the 2018 season with a 6-4 mark in Ohio River Lacrosse Conference play and 7-10 overall. Six Presidents earned All-ORLC honors, including Ward.

In 2017, W&J compiled a 4-3 record in conference contests before qualifying for the ORLC Tournament. Kyle Heinig picked up Co-ORLC Offensive Player of the Year honors while Ben Ward was named conference Newcomer of the Year. In total, six student-athletes were lauded with all-league honors.

In the 2016, Kustron was named Co-Coach of the Year in the Ohio River Lacrosse Conference. After starting 0-2 in league play, Kustron righted the ship and led the Presidents to the conference title game. The Presidents had nine players receive All-ORLC honors, including Kyle Heinig, who won the Offensive Player of the Year award.

In his first season at the helm, the Presidents tied the school record for wins, finishing with an 8-8 overall mark. W&J also placed a pair of Presidents on the All-Landmark Conference teams for the first time since 2012 in school's last year in the league as all-time leading scorer Tim Angell and Heinig each earned Second Team recognition. Additionally, goalkeeper Jacob Succop set the single-season program benchmark with 228 saves.

Kustron played collegiate lacrosse at Salisbury University (Md.) where his teams won three NCAA Division III Championships. His overall team record during his years on campus (2004-2008) was 85-1 and he served as the team captain on the Sea Gulls' 22-0 championship season in 2008.
