Washington and Lee’s Frank Miriello has announced his retirement as the school’s head football coach effective immediately. Miriello will remain as an instructor of physical education through the remainder of the current term.

“A few weeks ago I celebrated my 67th birthday and on that day I found myself pausing and reflecting on my life’s journey,” said Miriello. “I have been coaching for 45 years and it feels like it is the right time to retire. It has been a privilege and an honor to serve this great University and the outstanding student-athletes I have worked with for the last 26 years. It has been a wonderful journey. I will be forever grateful to former Head Coach Gary Fallon, former Athletic Directors Bill McHenry and Mike Walsh and former President John Elrod. It is difficult to express the magnitude of my appreciation to those gentlemen for providing me the opportunity to coach at the collegiate level at such a prestigious University.”
