After graduating from Charleston Southern in 1994, Lake spent four years as a high school baseball coach.

Lake then spent one season at College of Charleston (2003), three at Ole Miss (2004–2006), and two at The Citadel (2007–2008).[2][5][6]

Lake was hired to replace Jason Murray as Charleston Southern's head coach for the start of the 2009 season. After finishing 7th and 10th in the Big South in his first two seasons, the Buccaneers tied for 3rd in 2011, earning Lake the Big South Coach of the Year award.
