Nic Soubry enters his fourth year (third season) in 2023-24 with an 18-9 record overall as the head coach of the McGill men’s varsity lacrosse team. He replaced long-time head coach
Tim Murdoch, who retired after the 2019-20 season.
In post-season play, Soubry has guided McGill to a 5-2 record, including consecutive berths at the Baggataway Cup championship tournament. He previously served as an assistant coach with the team, handling defence from 2015 to 2019 under the guidance of Murdoch. During that period, the team posted a 60-15 record in 75 contests overall, collecting four CUFLA East pennants, two undefeated regular seasons and one Baggataway Cup national championship (2015).
From 2015 to 2017, Soubry was also the head coach of the Équipe Junior Patriotes de Longueuil, which won a conference championship in 2015 and led to the league's coach-of-the-year honours. In 2018, he was named the director of Box Lacrosse Education for the Westmount lacrosse program. In 2019, he was the head coach for the bantam South Shore Centurion team, which was the first non-Indigenous Quebec squad to make it to the Ontario Lacrosse Association playoffs for B division. In 2021, he was the development coach from Team Québec Under-19 women’s box lacrosse team.
Soubry earned a B.Sc in biology from Sacred Heart University followed by a Ph.D in biophysics from McGill in 2021. He played varsity lacrosse at Sacred Heart (2010-2013), where he was awarded the team's Comeback Player of the Year award in 2013. He played 26 games on defence with 18 starts. Soubry also played box lacrosse for both the Burlington Chiefs (Jr. A; 2010-2012) and the Oakville Buzz (Jr. B; 2008-2009). A stalwart on defence, he earned the team's Chief of the Year award in 2012.
Soubry resides in Verdun, Que., with his partner
Camille Bodnar (also a McGill grad), and their dog Luna.
