Sharon has hired Mike Vitelli as its next athletic director for the upcoming school year. He will also serve as an assistant principal.

Vitelli has administration experience at both Xaverian Brothers High School and Norton Middle School as an assistant principal but is no stranger to the Hockomock League. Vitelli was the head coach for King Philip girls lacrosse from 2002-2007 and guided the Warriors to five straight Hock titles without losing a league game (73-0-1). He returned to coach at North Attleboro for two seasons in 2016 and 2017, going 13-7 in both years including the program’s first playoff win in his first season.

“I’m excited to move into this role after a very rewarding 27 years of coaching lacrosse,” Vitelli told HockomockSports.com. “As my own kids transition out of high school and into college, I’ve got the time now to really dive into being a part of a great community and overseeing an awesome group of teams and coaches. The Hock is such a competitive and passionate league and I’m excited to be a part of it.”

After coaching at KP, Vitelli spent three seasons at the collegiate level as an assistant coach at Stonehill College. Vitelli also coached for Bishop Feehan after his stint with North Attleboro, leading the Shamrocks to a handful of successful seasons. He was an assistant principal at Norton Middle School before moving on to Xavieran – his alma mater – in 2017 where he served as the Assistant Principal for Student Life.
