NEW YORK, N.Y. – The City College of New York Department of Athletics and Recreation is pleased to announce the hiring of Michael Corbo as the new Head Men's Lacrosse Coach, as the Beavers launch the return to NCAA DIII competition for this spring.

Corbo joins CCNY after a successful four-year collegiate playing career at Mercy University, where he established himself as a dependable two-way contributor and earned recognition for his performance both on the field and in the classroom.

"We are excited to welcome Michael Corbo to The City College of New York as the next leader of our men's lacrosse program," said Duane Bailey, Director of Intercollegiate Athletics & Recreation. "As we prepare for the return of men's lacrosse to NCAA Division III competition this spring, Michael brings valuable collegiate playing experience, a strong understanding of the game, and a commitment to developing student-athletes. We look forward to the leadership, energy, and vision he will bring as we continue to build this program and create opportunities for our student-athletes to succeed on and off the field."

During his collegiate career, Corbo appeared in 54 games, making 45 starts. He recorded 97 ground balls and 21 caused turnovers while competing at the NCAA Division II level. His playing experience included competing against high-level regional and national opponents and developing an understanding of the commitment, discipline, and preparation required to succeed in collegiate lacrosse.

In 2025, Corbo earned Second Team All-East Coast Conference (ECC) recognition after starting all 14 games and collecting 35 ground balls. He also received the Division 2 Athletics Directors Association (D2 ADA) Academic Achievement Award.

In his final season in 2026, Corbo started all 15 games, recording 27 ground balls and 13 caused turnovers. His performance earned him College Sports Communicators (CSC) Academic All-District honors, further highlighting his commitment to academic and athletic excellence.

Corbo also made an impact during his first two seasons at Mercy, starting all 16 games in 2024 and appearing in nine contests in 2023. Before his collegiate career, he earned All-County and All-State honors in football and was a two-time All-County selection in lacrosse at Bethpage High School.
