Siena men’s lacrosse head coach Liam Gleason has died, just days after his 41st birthday, the university has confirmed.

Gleason died on Wednesday, December 3, following a traumatic brain injury sustained from a fall at his home on Sunday, November 29.

“A sudden, senseless loss carries a kind of pain that defies understanding,” Siena president Chuck Seifert said in a statement posted to the school’s athletics website. “It’s hard to imagine anyone more universally loved and admired than Liam. Our community was blessed by Coach Gleason’s life.”

Gleason leaves behind wife Jaclyn, as well as daughter Kennedy, and sons Penn and Tate. The university will hold a funeral service on campus on Saturday, December 6.
