Georgetown Prep Lax Coach Resigns – Kevin Giblin, who was Georgetown Prep’s lacrosse coach for 27 years, resigned on Wednesday. It’s unclear why. A letter from the school’s athletic director doesn’t give a reason for the resignation and a report from Washington Magazine claims it’s because Giblin got in a bar fight in June at Caddies on Cordell. Giblin didn’t respond to requests for comments on the reported incident. [Washingtonian Magazine]
