"A knowledgeable coach, yet lacks the ability to put effort into coaching anyone that is not in the first boat. Poor communicator and makes his athletes feel bad for not training while injured. "

"Kinda have mixed feelings about him. Don't disagree with some of the negative things said but Campbell does have some good moments that has helped me. Definitely plays favorites though which makes it frustrating when deciding who's in what boat. "

Disorganized Poor Communication Intense Knowledgeable Cares About Academics

"Very disorganized. Does not communicate well with athlete's. Very poorly structured workout plan throughout the year causing athletes to be over worked and burnt out. Wants you to succeed but will talk about you negatively behind your back to other athletes causing them to belittle the negatively spoken athlete. Has great technical knowledge but doesn’t do much coaching on the water. Will listen to concerns and suggestions but doesn’t actually seem to care about them as coach campbell will rarely take them into effect. I understand that the coach shouldn’t need to take every concern or suggestion into action however if something is negatively affecting multiple athletes causing some of them to quit then something should be done differently to prevent that from happening moving forward.

Disorganized Poor Communication Intense Knowledgeable Cares About Academics

"Not a great experience. Cursed us out and said some vulgar language at the IRA. Made me do workouts on injuries, had his favorites. He is very knowledgeable in the sport and teaches a great technique, but overall is a very disorganized, very disrespectful coach. He always tried to pressure kids who were injured into getting back on the boat or the water. Given the current state of the team, as well as who he is as a coach, I wouldn’t recommend. "

"Is very knowledgeable of the sport and is great at teaching technically. However, he is very disorganized and takes days to respond to potential recruits and even his own even his own athletes. Over works athletes a lot of the time. Releases information to the team extremely last minute and with the lack on communication it makes things more difficult. "

"LWV is that classic bad coach. If you are fast enough you can get away with whatever you want... examples: Him looking the other way to drugs/alcohol + financial compensation, which in that aspect makes Larry a bro. On the other hand he hasn't changed his workouts in four decades and doesn't understand the most basic swimming fundamentals. "

"Very old school, garbage yardage type training. Not open at all to new ideas about swimming technique or training methods. Fairly motivational, but can be quite mean. No nonsense approach focusing on balance of mind, body, and spirit. Rating: 6/10, would be higher if he was more open minded and less disparaging. "

"My daughter absolutely fell in love with Marist before decided to switch to playing lacrosse in college. Once she began reaching out to the coaches it went down hill. She understood it was a reach to play Division One but they could have been kinder with how they spoke to her. Her dream of attending Marist regardless of playing lacrosse diminished after meeting the team and coaches. The girls wouldn’t even give her the time of day. "
