Ty Anderson joins the Vermont State University Castleton men's lacrosse coaching staff for the 2026–27 season as an assistant coach under head coach Nathan Snitz. Anderson will work primarily with the Spartans' goalkeepers, faceoff specialists, and transition units.
Anderson brings a combination of collegiate playing experience and coaching experience at the college and high school levels. Prior to joining Castleton, Anderson spent four years coaching high school lacrosse in Maryland and Delaware, helping develop student-athletes both on and off the field.
In 2020, Anderson served as a graduate assistant coach with the Georgia Institute of Technology's Men's Collegiate Lacrosse Association (MCLA) Division I program while pursuing his master's degree.
A native of Maryland, Anderson played four seasons as a midfielder at Randolph-Macon College from 2016 to 2019. During his collegiate career, he helped the Yellow Jackets improve from a 4–13 record during his freshman season to a 13–5 mark as a senior. Anderson was named a team co-captain for the 2019 season and received the Bruce Cornbrooks Memorial Award in recognition of his outstanding leadership, commitment, and character. He was also a three-time selection to the Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) All-Academic Team from 2017 through 2019.
Anderson graduated cum laude from Randolph-Macon College in 2019 with a Bachelor of Science in Engineering Physics and minors in Computer Science and Mathematics. He went on to earn a Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 2020.
Anderson is excited to return to the collegiate coaching ranks and contribute to the continued growth of Castleton's historic men's lacrosse program.
"I believe in the culture and values that Coach Snitz, the staff, and the players are building at Castleton," Anderson said. "With a strong group of returning players and exciting new additions, we have a tremendous opportunity to build on the program's history while establishing a foundation for future success. I'm looking forward to helping this team reach new heights."
