Slow-Motion Approaches with Dave Pietramala – Univ. of North Carolina

Watch full video with the IMLCA Video Library here. • April 9, 2025 • By Intercollegiate Mens Lacrosse Coaches Association

Watch as Coach Dave Pietramala explains and players demonstrate the technique and positioning for a defender's slow-motion approach. He wants the defender to be flat with the outside shoulder on the offensive player's inside shoulder. The drill starts with the defender slowly approaching, then marching up to the proper position with a focus on eye discipline.

Dave Pietramala was previously a coach at Syracuse University.
