FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JULY 7, 2021

MOON AREA LACROSSE ASSOCIATION

CHRIS ORTMANN NAMED BOYS VARSITY HEAD COACH FOR MOON LACROSSE

Moon Area Lacrosse is pleased to announce that Chris Ortmann will join our staff as the Moon Area High School Boys Lacrosse Head Coach.  Additionally, we are pleased to announce that Bennett Metzger will be taking on a new role as the Assistant Varsity Coach and JV Head Coach.  The Moon Area Lacrosse Board is excited to not only have an experienced and successful Head Coach like Chris to lead the program forward, but to have retained Bennett who has been dedicated and an integral part of the Moon Lacrosse Program for five years.  

Chris has an extensive lacrosse background that includes playing lacrosse from youth through the college club level.  His 14 years of coaching experience includes being Assistant Head Coach for the University of Pittsburgh Men’s Lacrosse Team and Assistant Coach for the Carnegie Mellon University Men’s Lacrosse Team.  Chris then moved on to be the Varsity Head Coach at Winchester Thurston Upper School for 2 years and then spent 6 years as Head Varsity Coach at Bethel Park (2012-2018).  Chris put together a systems-based program that focused on generating not only interest in the sport of lacrosse at the youth level, but also developed players’ skills and abilities that carried over to the High School teams.  While coaching in a highly competitive section, Chris and his Bethel Park team won a section title.

Chris will be contacting the Moon High School Boys Lacrosse players very soon to schedule a team meeting to introduce himself, his coaching staff, and his vision for the Moon Lacrosse program.  The Moon Area Lacrosse Board would like to thank all parties involved in the search for a Head Coach.  Moon Area Lacrosse is always looking for volunteers to help with our year-round youth and high school programs.  If you or anyone you know loves the sport of lacrosse and is interested in volunteering, please e-mail  

Sponsors Help Our Program To Keep Kids Playing This Great Game!!!

Moon Area Lacrosse Club Corporate Sponsorship Packages

Corporate sponsorships are an important piece to the fundraising efforts of the Moon Area Lacrosse Club.  The corporate sponsorships along with other fundraising efforts are used to help reduce registration fees to our student athletes, provide uniforms for our athletes, pay for our coaches, pay for referees, pay for emergency medicine and pay for transportation for the away high school games.  These corporate sponsorship packages will allow you to get double the exposure compared to other high school sports.  Your business will be highlighted at both the boys and girls games.   This year particularly is important for corporate sponsorships because some of our normal fundraising events had to be postponed because of Covid-19.  So please take this opportunity to help support our local lacrosse club and gain exposure in the community for your business.  You also have the ability to pay for exclusivity in your current line of business.  We thank you for your support and look forward to working with you in continuing the tradition of Moon Area Lacrosse.  Please direct any questions to .
