College of the Holy Cross

"Out of all the coaches my three children have had, starting with Ayso through college, Ben is hands down the worst. 90% of what he told us in the recruiting process was either an outright lie or a massive exaggeration. As a could he consistently had “coffee talks” where he asks inappropriate questions about religion, family planning, and siblings. He consistently told the women they were not good enough to play possession soccer and would use team film sessions to blame losses on players and ridicule them over and over again. He is not someone you want your daughter around for long periods of time. The record of the team during his tenure speaks to his technical competence"

"Doesn’t deliver on any promises and used the same script with everyone while recruiting, doesn’t communicate with nor develop his players. Basically no help with summer team placements. Has done well due to the team working together but not due to coaching or motivation. No feedback or development plans discussed. School also doesn’t value athletes and their schedules. Barely anyone on the team wants to play further or even in the summer. Players sit and wait for opportunity & before you know it you’re a senior with no development and nothing changes, especially pitchers. All of the pitchers have injuries and so have other players so conditioning is questionable."

"Had an amazing visit to Holy Cross. She was super honest and open about where she saw me playing and where she saw the team going. Have heard some negative feedback from players there since. "
