Maryland Whipsnakes coach Jim Stagnitta was a guest on Glenn Clark Radio Thursday.

Among the topics he discussed were:
-Why the Whipsnakes took Maryland’s Ajax Zappitello at #3 in the PLL College Draft when Notre Dame star Pat Kavanagh was still on the board
-Their belief that Zappitello was the only player on the board that could defend Waterdogs star Michael Sowers
-Being able to get Penn State attacker TJ Malone in the third round after trading their second round pick for Jackson Morrill
-Adding Loyola attacker Adam Poitras in Round 4
-His reflection on the life and legacy of former Stevenson and PLL star Callum Robinson
