"If Davenport did their job players, coaches, and staff members wouldn’t have to post here. Ronda and Davenport is upset about people sharing their lived experiences here but instead of bringing change, she would rather try to silence voices. All the staff, parents, and athletes want is to attend Davenport without being bullied, threatened to be fired, and scholarship/playing time be threatened for reporting to mandated reporters about inappropriate behaviors and relationships of DU’s coaches. Ronda heard specifically from players and staff members and never investigated a coach who was in an inappropriate relationship for months. Thats not safe. HR knew about it and instead of investigating, tried to remove those that reported and told players they couldn’t talk about it. Ask players, coaches, and those in it and you’ll find more info. Make DU safe so we trust we won’t be retaliated against for reporting unsafe environments to keep the students that attend here safe."

"In my opinion, Michelle is no better than a used car salesman or politician, promises the world during recruiting, very attentive and complimentary and then once you commit, the games begin. She does NOT foster a team atmosphere, rather one of stress and favorites, especially if you have played Mass Elite. There are many who have gone to the AD or higher to complain, but here she is still coaching --- the same issues are taking place as I write this review, and girls (that love the game) are quitting for their own mental health. Babson is a great school with a great education and opportunities; if you have the opportunity to attend, do not play lacrosse as you miss out on so much because of practices, and the amount of times you are "allowed" to miss. Michelle really does not care about your education in the end; if she did she would be more flexible and allow girls to attend speakers or events of interest to them. God forbid if you miss practice over this, it will reflect in your playing time or your position; and then it will be spun somehow to be your fault. Her assistants don't have a spine either, even though they know better and will either text or call you on the side ("receipts"). Coaching takes a mature individual who loves the game and wants what is best for both the girls and the team; this is NOT what you get with Michelle. I wish an alumni had pulled me aside before we committed so that we were aware of how it will be; it is unfortunate we had to find out for ourself. I would highly recommend Babson for an education, but NOT recommend the women's lacrosse program, as you will be HIGHLY disappointed."

"This guy is a fraud, took over a medicore D2 lacrosse team in PBA showed zero respect for existing players cut existing scholarships for returning players. Not honest, not trusthful, a completed liar and fraud. Unfortunately my son still will have to play under him for the next 2 years as he likes the school and area. Coach Dan has been run out of other programs and his time will come here, not soon enough for my child, but hopefully for future student athletes. Once my son graduates from PBA I wll be sure to let Coach Dan directly know about these feelings and the players dislike for him. PBA is a great place, no need for a guy like him around."

"Best coach I've played for."

"Need to hire Coach Mandy as the head coach. Beirne is just going through the motions at this point. She forgets to re enter players & her ego is HUGE. If you’re a pitcher you won’t be developed and you will get worse. Be warned. She tries to make everyone throw like she did and pitches all suffer. Gets drills from TikTok, pitch every single day with zero plan. No growth is happening here. "
