David Adam McLaughlin (born July 5, 1974) is an American college basketball coach. He is the head coach of the Dartmouth College's men's basketball team.[2]
After a playing career at Colby College, McLaughlin began coaching as a graduate assistant at Suffolk University. He had a tenure as an assistant at Wesleyan University before landing at Stonehill College in 2000. During the 2004 season, McLaughlin assumed the duties of interim head coach, earning the head coaching job for the 2004-05 season. In his first season at the helm, the Skyhawks went 20-8, which led to six 20-win seasons in nine seasons at the helm, along with five NCAA Division II tournament bids, including two Final Four appearances. He finished his Stonehill career with a 189-99 overall record, and 135-80 in Northeast-10 play.
In 2013, McLaughlin joined Bill Coen's staff at Northeastern University, and was part of the staff that won the Huskies' first-ever CAA Tournament title, and first NCAA bid in 24 years.
On April 25, 2016, McLaughlin was named the 28th coach in Dartmouth Big Green history.
