Beginning as an offensive midfielder in high school, Mitch Belisle switched to long pole defense at Cornell University. By his senior year in 2007, he led Cornell to the Final Four as a captain, earned 1st team All America honors, and was named the Division I Defenseman of the Year. Once in the professional leagues he cut down his poles and went back to defending with short stick in both the MLL with the Boston Cannons and NLL with the Minnesota Swam. His versatility and ability to shut down the best attackmen and midfielders in the game make him one of the most effective defenders in the game today. Mitch’s vast understanding of all aspects of the game coupled with his determination and charisma enable him to thrive as a teacher on the field. He earned a BS in Industrial and Labor Relations from Cornell University in 2007.
