Jack Emmer recently retired from Army as the NCAA's all-time winningest coach with 326 career victories. He is one of only two coaches to have guided three teams to the NCAA tournament, and he coached the 2002 U.S. Men's Team to the International Lacrosse Federation World Championship.

He was elected into the US Lacrosse Hall of Fame in 2005. Three times the USILA named him a divisional coach of the year and in 2003 that organization honored him with the Howdy Meyers Man of the Year Award.

Emmer was a second team All-American defenseman at Rutgers, where he also had a stellar football career. His lacrosse peers voted him team MVP in 1967. Three US Lacrosse chapters-Charlottesville (Va.), Hudson Valley (N.Y.), and Long Island Metro (N.Y.) - have already inducted him into their respective halls of fame.
