Andrew Hauk enters his second year as the head men's lacrosse coach at Plattsburgh State in 2022.
During his first season with the Cardinals in 2021, he mentored two All-State University of New York Athletic Conference (SUNYAC) selections during a COVID-19 altered season in which Plattsburgh State only played teams in the East Division (SUNY New Paltz, SUNY Oneonta and SUNY Potsdam).
Hauk previously served as an assistant coach at the University of Scranton from 2018-20, helping guide the Royals to a 22-19 overall record and a 9-3 mark in Landmark Conference play during his tenure there. The Royals qualified for the Landmark Conference Tournament semifinals in 2018 and 2019, continuing a streak of nine-straight conference tournament appearances. Hauk helped mentor a United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association (USILA) All-American in 2019, and 12 Royals earned All-Landmark Conference honors across the 2018 and 2019 seasons.
Prior to Scranton, Hauk spent two seasons as an assistant coach at Western Connecticut State University under the guidance of former Plattsburgh State head coach Ryan Cavanagh. He helped the Colonials improve their win total by five from 2016 to 2017, and during his final season in Danbury, Conn., Western Connecticut State qualified for the Little East Conference Tournament.
Hauk's coaching career began in 2015 when he served as a volunteer assistant coach at Plattsburgh State during Cavanagh's final season at the helm of the Cardinals' program. He served as the team's goalie coach as well as its assistant defensive coordinator.
On the field, Hauk enjoyed a standout 2014 season in goal for Plattsburgh State, going 13-6 with a .552 save percentage and a 7.84 goals-against average while backstopping the Cardinals to their second-ever SUNYAC championship game appearance. He transferred to Plattsburgh State after three years as a goalie at Lycoming College.
Hauk graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in criminal justice from SUNY Plattsburgh in 2014.
