Tom Flynn is in his first year as the Head Women's Lacrosse Coach at Emory & Henry College. Hired during the fall semester of 2022, Flynn's role for the 2022-23 academic year is to lay the groundwork for a varsity lacrosse program at which will begin competition in the spring of 2024.

Flynn joined the E&H staff after three years as the Director of Lacrosse and Head Women's Lacrosse Coach at Montreat College. He inherited a team in the fall of 2019 that had won just two games in its first four years of existence and propelled the Cavaliers to 17 wins in his final two seasons, including a 12-7 mark in 2022 and a berth in the Appalachian Athletic Conference Tournament Semifinals.

In addition to setting the program record for wins last year, Flynn coached the AAC Player of the Year and NAIA First-Team All-American, Kate Gauntlett, who led all levels of college lacrosse with 114 goals scored. Additionally, the Cavaliers saw Mina Hicks named AAC Freshman of the Year as part of a total of four spots on the all-league teams. For his efforts, Flynn was selected as the league's Coach of the Year by his colleagues.

Flynn also served as Montreat's assistant men's lacrosse coach (2016, 2019, 2020) for three seasons. In 2017-18, Tom served as the college's sports information director. He is a part-time journalist who has written for the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, and Washington Post, among others. Prior to switching to journalism and coaching, Flynn spent more than two decades in corporate finance, culminating in a vice president role within the Capital Markets division of Wells Fargo.

The Chatham, New Jersey, native was a three-sport athlete in high school and played baseball for Mount St. Mary's University before finishing his finance degree at James Madison University. Flynn played baseball for a decade following college, and in addition to lacrosse, he has previously coached baseball, basketball, and football.
