On Monday afternoon Northwood announced their new men's and women's lacrosse coaches at a press on campus. Northwood had a men's varsity team from 1992 to 2000 and a club team for some years in the interim, but this will be the first women's lacrosse team for the Timberwolves. According to an October 31 press release, the teams will focus on recruiting and will compete in scrimmages and exhibition games during 2023-24 before beginning competition in NCAA Division II during 2024-25.

The men's head coach will Jacob Fredal.

A native of Bloomfield Hills in Michigan, Jake was a 2015 graduate of Utica Eisenhower where he was an honorable mention all-state defender in 2014 and 2015.

He then played three seasons as 6'4" 205 lbs defender for Le Moyne College in Syracuse, NY. He won a NCAA Division II national championship with Le Moyne in 2016 and graduated in 2019 with a Bachelor's in Finance.

Since 2021 Jake has been a coach (defensive coordinator) at Detroit Country Day (2022 MHSAA division 2 state runners up) and for the Cherries travel program (an elite Michigan/Midwest travel lacrosse program).

The women's head coach will be Morgan Radners.
