Cole McMeen is entering his fourth year on the Dirty Birds coaching staff, bringing over two decades of experience in the game and a deep-rooted connection to lacrosse in the Cobb County community. A versatile defender, Coach McMeen played Defense and LSM at both Berry College and Kennesaw State University and has spent more than 12 years developing players at the youth and high school levels in the area. He currently serves as the Varsity Defensive Coordinator at Hillgrove High School, where he continues to shape some of the top defensive talent in Georgia prep lacrosse. Throughout his coaching career, Coach McMeen has helped graduate players to D1, D2, D3, and MCLA programs — a reflection of both the standard he holds his players to and the development pathway he builds for them. Off the field, he works as a Healthcare IT Consultant in Atlanta. He is US Lacrosse certified and GHSA certified. This past year, Coach McMeen welcomed his son Liam — and the Dirty Birds family is thrilled to have another future player in the fold.
