Lakers Coaches

In his 22nd season as Manager of the Lakers and 24th as a RT Coach, Coach Wingren has been with the Lakers since 1990. Under his leadership the Lakers have won their fair share of Championships. Coach Wingren has seen many of his graduating players to go on to successful baseball careers and great lives.

Coaches DeRose and Lisa joined the Lakers in 2011, and had an immediate impact. They helped lead the team to the 2011 Championship title. Always there for a high five and encouragement, the coaches have been a fantastic addition to the Lakers family. Coach DeRose has two sons (Joey and Vincent) on the team and Coach Lisa has one son (Tyler) on the team.

Billy Wingren coached the Lakers for 11 seasons, but his history with the team goes back much further. From 1988-1990 he was a player on the team. His coaching began during the 2000 season when the Lakers won the Rockaway Township Babe Ruth Championships.

After a number of years coaching with the Lakers, Coach Pat has decided to retire. He has given so much to baseball over his many years as a coach. He has been a great part of our recent success and he will be missed.

Coach Pat joined the Lakers staff during the 2007 season, but has been around baseball his entire life. He has coached in a variety of leagues in Rockaway and elsewhere. The players appreciate his experience. Pat helped lead the Lakers to a first place finish in 2007,2008 and 2009.
