After committing to continue his academic and lacrosse career at Division II Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, Florida, as a junior, goalie Frank Bagolie went out and made 120 saves for Livingston High School this past season.
With this past year’s performance, Bagolie finished his four-year career as a Lancer netminder with a total of 509 stops, ranking him third all-time in Livingston lacrosse history. He also earned Second Team All-State honors as a senior, building on his Third Team All-State selection as a junior.
Plus, Bagolie helped the Lancers to a 13-11 record, playing a key role in several key victories, including a 13-save performance to clinch the 2025 Jake Cup and a 16-save effort against Montclair, securing Livingston’s first win over the team in several years.
In addition to his high school lax achievements, Bagolie has represented both the Dominican Republic Men’s National Lacrosse Team, helping it earn a bronze medal at the Pan American Sixes Cup, and Team Israel in box lacrosse competition. He also coaches youth players with Patriot Lacrosse.
Off the field, Bagolie has also been recognized for his leadership and community involvement. His volunteer coaching service with the Junior Lancers program helped him earn the Livingston Junior Lancers Lacrosse Club Eric Rosenson Memorial Scholarship honor, awarded to senior athletes who demonstrate academic excellence, leadership, and community service.
He also received The Jake Foundation’s Jake Memorial Scholarship, which honors student-athletes who embody the values of the late Coach Allen “Jake” Jacobson: leadership, determination, humility, and a commitment to the game. Additionally, he is currently training to earn his private pilot’s license.
With his impressive Livingston town lacrosse playing days in the rear-view mirror, Bagolie is now chomping at the bit to starting the next chapter in his life at Embry-Riddle.
“I’ve been proud to wear the green and white for 14 years and represent my town,” Bagolie said in a press release. “I’m grateful to my coaches, teammates, family, and the entire Livingston lacrosse community for believing in me. While I’m sad to be leaving my Lancer family, I’m excited to continue my lacrosse journey at Embry-Riddle and compete at the next level under Coach Jez.”
