John Sung will be entering his second year as the head women's lacrosse coach at Adrian College during the 2008-09 school year. He guided the Bulldogs through their inaugural season in 2007-08 as the only varsity program in the state of Michigan. The Bulldogs got off to a fantastic start winning their first four games including a season-opening 10-1 win at Waynesburg. Sung's first squad finished the season with a 6-7 overall record but managed a very impressive 4-1 record at home much to the delight of the Adrian fans.

Coach Sung will have the privilege of being the head coach of Team Haudenosaunee in the upcoming 2009 Women's Lacrosse World Cup in Prague, Czech Republic. The event features 16 teams from around the world competing from June 18-27. Sung is the only Division III head coach to be asked to serve as head coach for one of the 16 teams.

Sung is excited to be welcoming onto campus the largest recruiting class in Division III. The team is expected to make even greater strides during year two as Sung gears up for another challenging campaign. The coaching philosophy for Sung remains to bring in quality student-athletes who represent Adrian College both on and off the field in a positive manner. He also puts a heavy emphasis on academic success coupled with assisting in the community whenever possible.

Sung came to Adrian from the University of Michigan where he has spent the past five years as the assistant women's club lacrosse coach. Four of the five Wolverine teams that Sung helped to coach have made appearances in the USL-WDIA final four. The Wolverines accumulated a 93-22 record while he was the assistant coach. Also while at U of M, Sung was in charge of recruiting for the team and has had one goalie tabbed as the pre-season player of the year.

A longtime trainer of goalies, Sung has held various coaching positions with Birmingham Seaholm High School and the Detroit Lacrosse Club. He has been the assistant director of the Great Lakes Women's Lacrosse Camp since 1997.

As a player, Sung was a captain of the Oakland University lacrosse team from 1996-1997. He was also a member of two International Cup Championship teams. Sung earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in communications from Oakland University.
