Sam Grinberg, a four-year varsity letter winner as a goalie at Bucknell, joined the Haverford College men’s lacrosse team as an assistant coach prior to the 2018 season. A USILA Scholar All-American and Patriot League Men’s Lacrosse Scholar-Athlete of the Year during his collegiate career, Grinberg comes to Haverford after a standout career that sees him still ranked among the top 10 goalies in Bucknell history with a 9.15 GAA.

A five-time Patriot League Defensive Player of the Week during his collegiate career, Grinberg ranked among the top 10 goalies in all of NCAA Division I in both save percentage (56.3%) and GAA (8.52) during the 2014 season. That standout season came just one year after the Bison advanced to the Patriot League championship game. Grinberg was also a member of two Patriot League semifinal teams to highlight the Bison’s four postseason appearances.

Grinberg was named Bucknell’s Defensive MVP during his junior and senior seasons, the same years he was named to the Patriot League’s All-Academic Team. He was named to the Patriot League Academic Honor Roll and Bucknell University’s Dean List every year. Additionally, Grinberg has volunteered his time with CityLax, a non-profit organization dedicated to growing the game of lacrosse in New York City, for the past four years after serving as a counselor for New York City Lacrosse camps prior to his enrollment at Bucknell.

A 2015 graduate of Bucknell, Grinberg graduated magna cum laude with a bachelor’s degree in economics and philosophy. He is currently enrolled in Bi-Co partner Bryn Mawr College’s post baccalaureate Premedical Program where will graduate in the spring of 2018.
