Johns Hopkins Parts Ways With Longtime Lacrosse Coach Dave Pietramala

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Johns Hopkins announced Tuesday the mutual parting of ways with Head men's lacrosse Coach Dave Pietramala after 20 years.

Pietramala was a star player back in the 1980s and the Jays head coach for the past 20 years.

His team earned 18 NCAA Tournament appearances and won two National Championships.

Struggles in recent years, however, led to increased speculation about a change.

Athletic Director Jennifer Baker has begun a nationwide search for Pietramala's replacement.
