THE MEREDITH FAMILY TREE AT BROCKPORT

One of the more recent commitments to the Golden Eagles is young Matt Meredith. Brockport fans are very familiar with the last name.

Matt's father Jeff graduated from Brockport in 1982.

In his last year on campus, he had run out of eligibility so he coached the goalies.

He was bit hard by the coaching bug. He went on to Hamilton College as an assistant and then in 1988-1989 became the head coach at Fredonia, a position he still holds.

During his tenure, his Fredonia teams have made post-season appearances in 19 out of the last 20 years, won three SUNYAC titles, made two NCAA Final Four appearances and the NCAA tournament again in 2007.
