Montreat College

Keith Lohmuller was selected as the fourth Montreat men's lacrosse coach in program history as he was hired in May of 2021. Lohmuller's responsibilities began heading into the 2022 lacrosse season.

Lohmuller made his way to Montreat following several successful coaching and career endeavors, most recently as an assistant coach at Queens University of Charlotte. While with the Royals from 2018 through 2021, Queens held a ranking inside the top 20 in NCAA DII all three years. The team also reached the NCAA Tournament for the second time in program history in 2019. Lohmuller coached over a dozen All-South Atlantic Conference players, one All-American and one Academic All-American during his time at Queens.

Off the field, the squad that Lohmuller assisted was the recipient of the Queens Royal Service Award for most community service hours by a team at the school. The Royals also recorded a team GPA over a 3.3 each year under Lohmuller's supervision.

Prior to his stint at Queens, Lohmuller assisted at the University of Colorado from 2009-2010. During his time at Colorado, the Buffaloes reached the MCLA National Quarterfinals and beat the University of Michigan, snapping the Wolverines' 49-game win streak in 2010.

Lohmuller worked as the Head Club Coach and Associate Director at Checkmate Lacrosse Club in New York for seven years. Several of his players went on to play at the collegiate level, including current players around the country in contention for national championships.

Before his coaching career, Lohmuller played college lacrosse at the US Military Academy at West Point. The Merrick, N.Y. native was also a two-time All-American while playing at Adelphi University, where he graduated with a bachelor's degree in business administration management with a concentration in finance. With the Panthers, Lohmuller was a captain of the 1998 NCAA DII National Championship team in addition to his three All-Conference selections.

Along with his coaching and playing experience, Lohmuller served as an infantryman and military police officer in the United States Army. After 12 years in the military, Lohmuller was honorably discharged.

Lohmuller relocated from the Charlotte area with his wife, Kristy. They have two grown children, a daughter, Kelsi, and a son, AJ.
