June 23, 2022 - National Lacrosse League (NLL)
Panther City Lacrosse Club News Release


Head Coach, Tracey Kelusky, was named a Coach of the Year finalist after the Peterbor- ough, Ontario native led Panther City to more wins than the previous two NLL expansion clubs' first seasons combined, as Panther City won 7 games in their inaugural season, including a five-game winning streak. He adjusted mid-season to make Panther City one of the NLL's most potent offenses, especially on the man advantage, as the team finished in the top half in the league on the power play and on the penalty kill. Kelusky's offense also recorded the highest scoring output in the NLL in 2021-22 as they team recorded 20 goals against the eventual 2021-22 NLL Champions, the Colorado Mammoth, on March 11.

Kelusky also improved both the offense and the defense over the course of the season, as the team put up 19 more goals in the second half while allowing 11 less. He also helped develop Rookie of the Year finalist Patrick Dodds, and got career-highs from sophomore forward Will Malcom and veteran forward Phil Caputo.
