COACHES AND STAFF

Notre Dame and the WSBT Radio Group have teamed up with New Country 99.9 FM Radio to begin the eighth season as the radio home of Notre Dame Fighting Irish hockey. Fans also can follow Irish hockey via live Internet broadcasts on Notre Dame’s official athletic department website (www.und.com and the WatchND App). Back for his seventh full Darin Pritchett season behind the microphone will be award-winning play-byplay broadcaster Darin Pritchett, the sports director at WSBT. Now in his 16th year with the station, Pritchett took over the role as the voice of Irish hockey in late February 2009 on a moment’s notice due to the untimely death of Mike Lockert, who had handled the play-by-play duties for seven seasons. Pritchett remained with the Irish through the NCAA Championships and took over the duties on a full-time basis in 2009-10. A native of Petersburg, Illinois, Pritchett will continue to be heard each weekday on “JT in the Morning” and “Weekday Sportsbeat.” He also will continue to host the popular “Gameday Sportsbeat” pregame Notre Dame football show on WSBT Radio. He also served as the South Bend Cubs’ announcer in 2015 for games on WSBT. Pritchett is a seven-time winner of the Associated Press outstanding play-by-play broadcasting in the major market division. In 2015, he earned the Michigan/Indiana Broadcasters Association Best Sports Play-By-Play for his call of the 2014 Notre Dame/UMass Lowell hockey game as well as the Indiana Associated Press Best Sports PlayBy-Play for his call of the Notre Dame/Hartford college basketball game. In 2005, the Indiana Broadcasters Association (IBA) gave the WSBT team a Spectrum Award for a first-place finish in sports play-by-play broadcasting. In 2006, 2010 and 2011, the WSBT sports team received first place by the IBA for sports coverage. Pritchett is a 1994 graduate of Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville where he received his degree in radio and television broadcasting. At SIUE, he served as the voice of the men’s and women’s basketball programs on radio and television. Prior to joining WSBT in 1999, Pritchett also worked as a sports producer for KMOX radio in St. Louis, Mo., where he worked as a producer for Cardinals baseball, Blues hockey, Rams football and sports talk shows.

hen Rev. Edward F. Sorin, C.S.C., arrived in the northern Indiana wilderness, he had only $310, three log buildings badly in need of repair and a farsighted vision of establishing a liberal arts school to meet the growing educational needs of the frontier. He dreamed of building a great university, and in 1842 he founded the University of Notre Dame du Lac. Over the years, Notre Dame would evolve into a preeminent place for Catholic thought. While becoming one of the top undergraduate institutions in the country, Notre Dame also has been at the cutting edge of research, including such innovations as the transmission of wireless messages and the development of synthetic rubber. Today researchers are achieving breakthroughs in astrophysics, radiation chemistry, environmental sciences, psychology, tropical disease transmission, cancer treatment, robotics, peace/religious studies and nanoelectronics. The University also has stressed residential life, with four-of-five students living on campus in 29 residence halls that serve as the focal point of social, spiritual and athletic activities. Notre Dame is one of a handful of universities with a truly national and international student body composed of young men and women who come from more than 90 nations and all 50 states. They attend Notre Dame not only to learn how to think, but to learn how to live, keeping faith with the vision of Father Sorin. Notre Dame is one of the few universities to regularly rank in the top 25 in the U.S. News & World Report survey of America’s best colleges and the Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup standings of the best

overall athletics programs. The University is second only to KU Leuven of Belgium among all Catholic universities worldwide, according to the Times Higher Education survey, and the Mendoza College of Business at Notre Dame boasts the No. 1 undergraduate business program in the nation according to Bloomberg BusinessWeek.

Vice President • Director of Athletics

ohn B. “Jack” Swarbrick Jr., a University of Notre Dame graduate now in his eighth year in 2015-16 as vice president and director of athletics at his alma mater, has attached his signature to a variety of new initiatives during his tenure: • Launching of Fighting Irish Media—a major enterprise that delivers better information about and access to Notre Dame and its athletic programs via expanded production and distribution of programming. • Developing a plan for expanding Notre Dame Stadium in order to make it a year-round asset for the University, while also improving the game-day experience for student-athletes and fans. That initiative became reality with the 2014 announcement of the Campus Crossroads Project that will add new structures to three sides of Notre Dame’s home football facility—creating new homes for student activities and recreation, career services, digital media, as well as academic disciplines anthropology, psychology, music and sacred music. • Building of student-athlete programs to develop leadership skills, increase community service and provide mentoring and career services resources. • Meeting the performance needs of Notre Dame studentathletes through establishment of a sports performance division. Over the past three years, Swarbrick played a major role in four significant announcements that positively impacted Notre Dame on the national collegiate scene: -- Membership for Notre Dame’s athletic teams (other than football and hockey) in the Atlantic Coast Conference that began with the 2013-14 athletic seasons. In football, Notre Dame will play five games per year against ACC opponents and also have full access to the league’s list of postseason bowl options. Notre Dame hockey now plays in Hockey East. -- An extension of the University’s relationship with NBC Sports through the 2025 football season. -- The 2014 announcement of an unmatched 10-year relationship with Under Armour that provides performance footwear, apparel and equipment for Irish athletic programs. In addition to being a shareholder in Under Armour, Notre Dame collaborates with Under Armour in the areas of sport technology, product development and athlete performance. -- Creation by the Bowl Championship Series of the four-team College Football Playoff, which started with the 2014 season, with Notre Dame maintaining viable access into that system. Swarbrick’s first seven years combined featured a variety of on-and off-the-field Notre Dame athletics successes: • The best across-the-board athletic season in Notre Dame history in 2013-14, as Irish men’s programs claimed the Capital One Cup and 22 of 26 sports overall advanced to postseason play, enabling Notre Dame to finish third in the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics allsports standings.

• Number-one rankings for Notre Dame (among Football Bowl Subdivision schools) in the eight most recent NCAA Graduation Success Rate (GSR) surveys--in 2014 at 99 for all-student-athletes. The Irish football program has ranked number one in those listings three of the last five years. • An appearance in the Bowl Championship Series football title game following the 2012 season—an unprecedented year in which the Irish finished the regular season 12-0 to rank number one in the final BCS poll while also ranking number one in the GSR standings. • NCAA championships in 2013 in men’s soccer, 2011 in fencing (a men’s and women’s combined championship) and 2010 in women’s soccer. • NCAA runner-up team finishes in 2015, 2014, 2012 and 2011 in women’s basketball, 2014 and 2010 in men’s lacrosse, 2013 and 2009 in fencing and 2008 in women’s soccer. • NCAA semifinal appearances in women’s basketball in 2013, men’s lacrosse in 2015 and 2012, hockey in 2011, women’s tennis in 2009 and 2010 and women’s soccer in 2009, plus 2010, 2012 and 2015 third-place fencing finishes. • NCAA Elite Eight appearance in men’s basketball in 2015 (first such accomplishment since 1979) • Individual NCAA championships in 2015 by Lee Kiefer (fencing-foil), Francesca Russo (fencing-women’s sabre) and Molly Seidel (track and field-10,000 meters); 2014 by Gerek Meinhardt (fencingfoil), Lee Kiefer (fencing-foil) and Emma Reaney (women’s swimming-200 yard breaststroke); 2013 by Courtney Hurley (fencingepee) and Lee Kiefer (fencing-foil); 2012 by Randall Babb (track and fielddistance medley relay), Chris Giesting (track and field-distance medley relay), Jeremy Rae (track and field-distance medley relay) and Johnathan Shawel (track and field-distance medley relay); 2011 by Ariel DeSmet (fencing-foil) and Courtney Hurley (fencing-epee); and 2010 by Gerek Meinhardt (fencing-foil). • 236 All-America selections and 44 Academic All-America honorees over those seven combined years. Born in Yonkers, New York, and raised in Yonkers and Bloomington, Indiana, Swarbrick is a 1976 magna cum laude graduate of Notre Dame, with a bachelor’s degree in economics. Upon graduating from Stanford University Law School in 1980, he returned to Indiana to accept a position as an associate in the Indianapolis law firm Baker & Daniels, one of the largest in the state. He was made partner in 1987 and spent 28 years with the firm. Swarbrick became Notre Dame’s 12th athletics director on July 16, 2008. He and his wife, Kimberly, are the parents of four children: Kate, a 2010 graduate of Saint Louis University; Connor, a 2011 graduate of Wake Forest University; Cal, a 2014 graduate of TCU; and Christopher, a 2015 graduate of Notre Dame.

Since that crazy, hectic opening week, the building has been in constant use, serving both the Notre Dame and South Bend communities, hosting a wide-range of activities, including Notre Dame hockey games and camps, local high school and youth hockey, sled hockey, figure skating, public skating, physical education skating classes, learn-to-skate, learn-to-curl and other Compton Classroom instructional programs, Notre Dame intramural ice hockey and broomball, the Notre Dame men’s and women’s club hockey and precision skating teams, commencement ceremonies, concerts and three Chicago Blackhawk training

The Compton Family Ice Arena

The Compton Family Ice Arena features two sheets of ice – the 200-foot-by-90-foot Charles “Lefty” Smith Rink that serves as the home of the Notre Dame hockey program and a 200-foot-by-100-foot Olympic-sized sheet that also serves patrons of the facility. The Lefty Smith Rink has a capacity of 5,022 while the Olympic-sized rink has seating for approximately 350 available. Through its first four seasons of operation, the CFIA has already given the Irish a true home-ice advantage, as they own a 52-28-4 (.667) overall record, including a 7-1 mark in postseason contests. The 84 games played at the CFIA have included 36 sellouts while 295,430 fans have passed through the

turnstiles for an average of 4,743 per game. Prior to moving into the Compton Family Ice Arena, the ice rink that serviced the Notre Dame community was the Joyce Center Rink, housed in the north dome of the Joyce Center. Opened in 1968, the Joyce Center seated 2,857 for hockey and was the home of the Irish for 44 years. While Notre Dame hockey is the main tenant of the building, the CFIA has become much more than that. It has really become a community center and a meeting place for the entire Michiana area of Northwest Indiana and southern Michigan, a belief that Irish athletics director Jack Swarbrick talked about at the

building’s ceremonial blessing on Sept. 11, 2010. On that day, Swarbrick said, ““There’s a limit to how much the community can use our dormitories and our classrooms and our laboratories, but the athletic facilities can be a special point of contact.” He continued, “I hope we win national championships with teams that train here and I hope we build new programs for our athletes and our students. But the ultimate success of this facility will be if we inspire a young boy or a young girl from the community to shoot higher, if we challenge them to be better people because they spend time on our campus. Then we’ve realized the potential of athletics at Notre Dame.” As the home of the Notre Dame hockey team, the building includes a state-of-the art team suite that includes both wet and dry locker rooms, a team auditorium for meetings and weekly team Mass, a sports medicine area, a player’s lounge, equipment areas, video operations and a multi-purpose room that will serve as a study lounge and dining area. In addition to a dedicated visiting team suite for Notre Dame’s opponents, there also are four auxiliary locker rooms for the Smith Rink with showers and restrooms and one officials’ locker room with restroom and shower.

CAPTAIN FOGARTY uHead Coach Jeff Jackson announced on Aug. 26 at Notre Dame’s season-opening meeting that senior forward Steven Fogarty will serve as the team captain for a second consecutive season in 2015-16. uFogarty becomes the 15th two-year captain in Notre Dame hockey history and the first since T.J. Jindra served as team captain during Jackson’s first two seasons behind the Irish bench (2005-07). uFogarty follows in a long line of Irish hockey players from Edina, Minn., to serve as team captain, including Anders Lee (`14), Ryan Thang (`10) and Dan Carlson (`01) in recent years. uFogarty has a family history of natural leadership capabilities: his father, William, is a retired United States Navy Admiral and his older brother, Charles, is currently serving in the Navy.

SENIOR LEADERSHIP uFogarty’s classmates Thomas DiPauli, Sam Herr, Mario Lucia and Andy Ryan will serve as alternate captains in 2015-16. u Notre Dame’s leadership core of Fogarty (113), DiPauli (108), Herr (95), Lucia (114) and Ryan (86) have combined to play 516 career games.

uBenefitting from the stronger second half to the season, Notre Dame finished 10-7-5 in Hockey East games, placing fifth of 12 teams in what proved to be the nation’s top conference in 2014–15. uHockey East proved to be the country’s top conference in 2014–15 and two of its six best came from Notre Dame as both forward Vince Hinostroza and Russo earned first-team allconference accolades. uThe coupling of Hinostroza and Russo marked the first time Notre Dame had two first-team all-conference picks in the same season since 1976–77 when Jack Brownschidle and Brian Walsh were both named to the all-WCHA first team. uAdditionally, Petersen earned league recognition as he was named as the goaltender on the Hockey East all-rookie team.

uRusso matched Denver’s Joey LaLeggia with 15 goals for most in the country among blue-liners, while his 41 points fell one shy of the national defenseman pace of 42.

During his first 10 seasons, the program has enjoyed a great deal of success. The highly regarded Jackson now has over 29 years of coaching experience. Notre Dame’s Jeff Jackson era began in 2005 when the University searched for a man who could move the program among the elite hockey schools in the country. The veteran coach owned a resume packed with success at the collegiate, junior hockey, professional and international levels. Throughout his coaching career, Jackson’s teams had been successful both on and off the ice and the hope was that he could deliver those same qualities at Notre Dame. After 10 seasons, it’s safe to say the Irish hit a home run with the selection of the popular coach. During his 10-year run, Notre Dame has become one of the nation’s top teams, winning the Central Collegiate Hockey Association’s (CCHA) regularseason title twice (2006-07 and 2008-09) while earning three Mason Cup championships (`07, `09 and the final one in 2013). Then in 2013-14, the team’s first season in Hockey East, the Irish upset the conference’s top team - Boston College - in the quarterfinals to advance to Boston’s TD Garden for the Hockey East semifinals. During Jackson’s tenure, his teams have made six trips to the NCAA Tournament (2006-09, 2010-11 and 2012-14), advancing to the Frozen Four twice, playing in the 2008 title game and the 2011 national semifinals. Since his second season at Notre Dame (2006-07), Jackson’s program has been among the top programs in the nation in wins and winning percentage, going 213-125-36 (.618) over the nine-year span. Between 2006-09, the Irish turned in win totals of 32, 27 and 31 for three consecutive seasons of 25 or more wins and three consecutive NCAA tournament appearances, a first in program history. Jackson’s success on the ice also has had a major impact off the ice for the Irish. With the wins came a commitment from the University that led to the new home of Irish hockey - The Compton Family Ice Arena - one of the finest college hockey facilities in the nation. The new venue opened for business on Oct. 21, 2011. Since Jackson’s arrival, the Irish have had 29 players selected in the National Hockey League Entry Draft, including four first round selections. In that same span, 20 players from USA Hockey’s National Team Developmental Program have matriculated to Notre Dame. During his tenure, the Irish have had five players garner All-America honors – Robbie Russo in 2015, Anders Lee in 2013, Ian Cole and Erik Condra in 2009 and David Brown in 2007. In addition, 12 of Jackson’s players have gone on to play in the NHL. Jackson enters the 2015-16 season with a 16-year collegiate record of 408-196-65 for a .658 winning percentage, the second-best percentage among all active Division I coaches with five years or more in Division I. His 408 career wins rank seventh among active coaches.

Jeff Jackson is the fourth head coach in the 48-year modern history of the Notre Dame hockey program.

THE FIGHTING IRISH

AT NOTRE DAME - In 2014-15, Jackson led a young team, which regularly dressed seven or eight freshmen, that jelled as the year progressed en route to an 18-19-5 record. The team defeated three top-10 teams in February, including eventual national champion Providence and eventual national runner-up Boston University. Benefitting from the stronger second half to the season, Notre Dame finished 10-7-5 in Hockey East games, placing fifth of 12 teams. The Irish lineup in 2014–15 featured 10 NHL draftees, tying for thirdmost nationally and standing as the top sum in Hockey East. After tying for the national lead in goals scored among defensemen, Russo was rewarded for his stellar 2014-15 season by being named an AHCA Second Team (East) All-American. Russo tied for the national lead among defensemen with 15 goals, while his 41 points ranked second among blue liners. A First Team All-Hockey East selection, Russo led the conference in both goals and points by a defenseman. Freshman goaltender Cal Petersen turned in a spectacular second half of the season, earning either the league’s player of the week, defensive player of the week or rookie of the week honor for five consecutive weeks between Feb. 9 and March 9. Highlighting that streak was his NCAA Division I record 87-save performance in Notre Dame’s 4-3 quintuple overtime loss to Massachusetts in the first round of the Hockey East playoffs. Petersen recorded four shutouts in 2014–15, tying the Notre Dame freshman record and tying for the Hockey East lead. His four shutouts also ranked second in the nation among freshmen. Hockey East proved to be the country’s top conference in 2014–15 and two of its six best came from Notre Dame as both forward Vince Hinostroza and Russo earned first-team all-conference accolades.

THE FIGHTING IRISH

DIVISION I ACTIVE COACHING LEADERS BY PERCENTAGE (MIN. 5 SEASONS)

SEASON PREVIEW

Notre Dame finished first in the conference with a 21-4-3-3 mark, eight points ahead of second-place Miami and Michigan. The Irish advanced to Joe Louis Arena for the third consecutive year by beating Nebraska Omaha in the second round of the playoffs. They then knocked off Northern Michigan, 2-1, in the semifinals and rallied from a 2-0 deficit to beat Michigan for the CCHA title in a 5-2 victory. Notre Dame went into the NCAA Tournament as the top seed in the Midwest Regional and was upset in the opening round by Bemidji State, 5-1. The 31 wins were the second most by a Notre Dame hockey team and the Irish had the lowest goals-against average in the nation (1.71) for the second time in three years. In 2007-08 the Irish were 27-16-4 and finished fourth in the CCHA with a 15-9-4 mark. They advanced to the CCHA Tournament in Detroit, but lost to Miami in the semifinals and Northern Michigan in the third-place contest. The last at-large team to make the NCAA tournament, Notre Dame’s offense came to life when it counted. Advancing to the NCAA West Regional, the Irish knocked off New Hampshire, 7-3, in the first game of the weekend and then stopped Michigan State, 3-1, to win the region, becoming the first fourth-seeded team to advance to the NCAA Frozen Four. At the Frozen Four, Jackson’s squad upset No. 1-ranked Michigan, 5-4, in overtime to move to the national championship game versus Boston College. The Eagles ended the magical ride with a 4-1 victory in Denver. After going 13-19-4 in his first season behind the bench in 2005-06, Jackson’s 2006-07 team got the ball rolling towards Irish hockey success. During that season, Notre Dame set school records for overall wins (32) and CCHA victories (21) on the way to capturing the school’s first-ever CCHA regular-season and tournament championships. For the first time in the program’s history, the Irish were ranked No. 1 in the nation, holding that lofty perch for seven straight weeks. They made their second appearance in the NCAA championship (first as a No. 1 seed) and won their first tournament game.

THIS IS NOTRE DAME

Hinostroza and Russo marked the first time that Notre Dame had two firstteam all-conference picks in the same season since 1976–77. Additionally, Petersen earned league recognition as he was named as the goaltender on the Hockey East all-rookie team. Notre Dame joined the Hockey East Association for the 2013-14 season. In conference play, the Irish were 9-9-2 to finish eighth. Overall the team was 23-15-2 and finished the year ranked 11th in both national polls. To open the postseason, Notre Dame won the one-game, first-round contest versus Boston University at home to advance to the Hockey East quarterfinals versus top-ranked Boston College. At Conte Forum, the Irish took the best-of-three series, two games to one, winning 7-2 in the opener, dropping a 4-2 decision in game two before winning the deciding game by a 4-2 verdict. In the Hockey East semifinals at the TD Garden (Boston, Massachusetts) Notre Dame fell to eventual champion, UMass Lowell, by a 4-0 score. The Irish were the No. 2 seed in the NCAA West Regional in Minneapolis, Minn. There the season came to an end for the second consecutive year at the hands of the St. Cloud State Huskies, as the Irish lost a 4-3 overtime thriller. Jackson and his 2012-13 team closed out the final season of play in the CCHA by finishing second in the regular-season standings before going on to win the final CCHA postseason championship at Joe Louis Arena. The Irish finished the year with a 25-13-3 overall mark and were 17-8-3-3 in conference play to finish three points behind first-place Miami in the regular season. Notre Dame defeated Bowling Green, two games to one in the quarterfinals, before downing Ohio State and Michigan by identical 3-1 scores in Detroit. The win over Michigan in the title game marked the third time that Notre Dame had knocked off the Wolverines in a CCHA championship contest and was the fifth win on the year against Michigan. The Irish would go on to be a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Midwest Regional in Toledo, Ohio, where they dropped a 5-1 decision to St. Cloud State in the opening game. The 2012-13 season was a bounce-back year for Notre Dame, as the team experienced a wild rollercoaster ride in the 2011-12 season, going 19-18-3 for the season while tying for eighth in the CCHA with a 12-13-3 conference mark. The Irish defeated Ohio State in the first round of the playoffs before being ousted in the quarterfinals by Michigan. In 2010-11 Notre Dame went on a magical run to the Frozen Four. The Irish were 25-14-5 overall while leading the CCHA until the final week of the season. They finished 18-7-3-2 in the conference and finished second to Michigan by two points. After dropping both games in the CCHA Tournament, the Irish got hot in the NCAA Tournament, winning the Northeast Regional with victories over Merrimack (4-3 in overtime) and New Hampshire (2-1) to advance to the Frozen Four in St. Paul, Minn. There, Notre Dame fell in the semifinals to eventual NCAA champion Minnesota Duluth with a 4-3 loss. In 2011, Jackson was selected as the CCHA coach of the year for the third time (`90-’91, `06-’07 and `10-’11) and was a finalist for the Spencer Penrose Award as the national coach of the year. The Frozen Four run in 2011 erased the memories of a disappointing 200910 season for Notre Dame as the Irish struggled, battling injuries and a scoring slump on the way to a 13-17-8 overall record and a 9-12-7-2 mark in the CCHA that put the Irish ninth in the conference. The 2008-09 campaign was a season to remember as Notre Dame won its second conference title and playoff title in three years. After a 2-3-0 start, it would be three months before the Irish would lose again as they went on a 20-game unbeaten streak (17-0-3), from Oct. 31 to Jan. 17, while being number one in the nation for seven consecutive weeks for the second time in the program’s history. After seeing the streak stopped, Notre Dame lost just one more time during the `08-’09 regular season. The Irish ended the regular season and the CCHA tournament on a 10-game winning streak.

Head Coach For his successful season behind the Irish bench, Jackson was named the CCHA coach of the year and the winner of the Spencer Penrose Award as the national coach of the year. The 60-year-old bench boss took over the Notre Dame hockey program on May 6, 2005, as the fourth coach since the program’s Division I inception in 1968. For Jackson, it was a return to his roots - coaching at the collegiate level - as he got his start behind the bench at Lake Superior State. He inherited a team that struggled through a difficult 5-27-6 season in 2004-05. The Roseville, Michigan native and his staff went right to work to change the team’s attitude and perception. They made giant strides on and off the ice in that first season directing the team’s fortunes. After a slow start (3-9-1), his players began to buy into what the new coach was selling and the Irish finished the year with a 10-10-3 mark over the final 23 games. In CCHA play the Irish showed a 15-point improvement over 2004-05 - going from 3-20-5 to 11-13-4 - good for eighth place in the league and the final home-ice spot in the CCHA playoffs. Only Miami made a bigger jump in 2005-06 with a 16-point improvement. In Jackson’s first 10 seasons, the Irish have played with poise and discipline, relying on team defense, strong goaltending and excellent special teams play. They also laid the foundation for future seasons with major success on the recruiting trail. In taking over the Irish coaching duties in 2005, Jackson became the first Notre Dame head coach to have won an NCAA Division I championship with another program before being hired as an Irish head coach. AT LAKE SUPERIOR STATE - Success is nothing new for Jackson at the NCAA Division I level. In six years as the head coach at Lake Superior State (1990-96), Jackson’s teams won two NCAA titles in 1992 and 1994 (also advancing to the finals in 1993), two CCHA regular-season championships (1991 and 1996) and four CCHA Mason Cup trophies (1991, 1992, 1993 and 1995). Jackson got his start in college hockey as an assistant coach at Lake Superior State in 1986 where he served four years under Frank Anzalone, helping guide the Lakers to one CCHA championship and the 1988 NCAA title. When Anzalone moved to the pro ranks following the 1989-90 season, Jackson took over as the head coach and in a six-year span (1991-96) guided them to six consecutive NCAA appearances, including three straight trips to the title game. In his first season behind the Lakers’ bench, Jackson’s squad was 33-10-3 overall and 26-2-4 in league play, winning the CCHA regular-season and tournament titles. The Lakers lost in the NCAA quarterfinals to Clarkson, two games to one. A year later, Lake Superior State ran off its second 30-plus win season under Jackson, going 30-9-4 on the year, while finishing second in the league

Following the 2006-07 season, Jackson was honored as the national coach of the year with the Spencer Penrose Award.

with a 20-8-4 mark. The Lakers advanced through the NCAA Tournament to knock off Wisconsin (5-3) in Albany, N.Y., in the first of three trips to the Frozen Four. The Lakers were 32-8-5 during the 1992-93 season and finished third in the CCHA with a 20-5-5 record. They captured the league’s tournament title by beating Miami, 3-0, in the finals at Joe Louis Arena. Lake Superior State defeated Minnesota-Duluth in the West Regional to advance to the finals in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. There the Lakers defeated Boston University in the semifinals before falling to Maine in the finals, 5-4. Lake Superior State didn’t dwell on the loss to Maine as the Lakers rebounded with a 31-10-4 record and a second-place CCHA finish in 1993-94. After losing to Michigan in the CCHA title game, Jackson’s team rebounded by winning overtime games versus Northeastern (6-5), Michigan (5-4) and Harvard (3-2) to face Boston University in the title game in St. Paul, Minnesota. The Lakers bounced the Terriers, 9-1, to record their second championship in three years. Jackson’s Lakers followed their second championship season in 1994-95 with a 23-12-6 record and won their fourth CCHA tournament title. In the NCAA tournament, they lost to Boston University in the Regional final. In his final season in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, Jackson saw the Lakers return to the 30-win plateau, going 30-8-2 overall, winning their second regular-season title with a 22-6-2 mark. Lake Superior State lost to Michigan in the CCHA title game (just the second CCHA championship loss in Jackson’s six years - 24-2) and saw the season come to an end with a loss in the East Regionals to Vermont. During his six years guiding the Lakers, Jackson produced 12 AllAmericans (five first team and seven second team), one Academic AllAmerican, and in 1991, he was recognized as the CCHA coach of the year. He is just one of 12 coaches to win multiple NCAA championships. From 1993-96, he also served as the director of athletics at Lake Superior State. Several of Jackson’s players advanced to play in the NHL. The list includes Doug Weight, Brian Rolston, Keith Aldridge, Blaine Lacher, John Grahame, Bates Battaglia and Jim Dowd. Jackson was inducted into the Lake Superior State University athletics hall of fame on July 23, 2009. WITH USA HOCKEY - On June 7, 1996, Jackson was named the national coach and senior director of the newly founded U.S. National Team Development program based in Ann Arbor, Michigan. In his first season putting the program in place, he served as the head coach for the United States Junior National Team that captured the silver medal at the 1997 World Junior Championships, at the time the best-ever finish for the U.S. team. The following year Jackson served as an assistant coach for Team USA at the 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano, Japan. In his four years directing the national program, eight former Notre Dame players came from the developmental program. IN THE OHL - In 2000, Jackson left the U.S. program and took over as coach of the Ontario Hockey League’s (OHL) Guelph Storm where he turned a losing franchise around, finishing in second place in his first season with a 34-23-9-2 record. In the 2001-02 season the Storm went 37-23-7-1 and hosted the Memorial Cup, advancing to the tiebreaker game where they lost to Victoriaville. In two-and-a-half seasons in Guelph, Jackson had an 87-67-24-4 record. IN THE NHL - From Guelph, Jackson moved on to the NHL’s New York Islanders, where he served as an assistant coach on Steve Stirling’s staff from 2003-05. In 2003-04, the Islanders finished third in the NHL’s Atlantic Division with a 38-29-11-4 record, good for 91 points. PERSONAL - A 1978 graduate of Michigan State University with a degree in communications, Jackson followed with an education degree from Michigan State in 1979. In May 2003, Inside College Hockey, ranked Jackson 12th on its list of the 16 greatest college coaches of all-time with only five of the 16 still active in coaching. Jackson is a member of the USA Hockey Coaches Achievement Program, the American Hockey Coaches Association and the National Hockey League Coaches Association.

SEASON PREVIEW

Paul Pooley returns for his 11th season at the University of Notre Dame as the team’s associate head coach. He was named to the position on June 3, 2005, by head coach Jeff Jackson. It is Pooley’s second tour of duty serving as Jackson’s associate head coach. During Pooley’s first stint, at Lake Superior State (1992-94), he was instrumental in the Lakers’ success as they advanced to the NCAA finals three times, winning in 1992 and 1994. In 10 seasons at Notre Dame, Pooley, along with Jackson and fellow assistant Andy Slaggert, has helped change the culture of Irish hockey. After a 13-19-4 first season, Pooley has seen the last nine Notre Dame teams go a combined 213-125-36, win a pair of CCHA regular-season titles and three CCHA Mason Cup championships (2007, 2009, 2013) while advancing to the NCAA Tournament five times (2006-09, 2011, 2013), including a pair of trips to the Frozen Four (2008, 2011). Overseeing the Irish defense, Pooley has seen Notre Dame give up the fewest goals per game (1.67 in `06-’07), the fifth fewest in `07-’08 (2.13) and the fewest again in `08-’09, just 1.71 per game. At Notre Dame, he has been instrumental in 11 defensemen - Noah Babin (Carolina), Wes O’Neill (Colorado), Ian Cole (St. Louis), Kyle Lawson (Carolina), Teddy Ruth (Columbus), Joe Lavin (Chicago), Sean Lorenz (Minnesota), Stephen Johns (Chicago), Kevin Lind (Anaheim), Shayne Taker (Florida) and Robbie Russo (Detroit) - signing NHL contracts. During that same time frame, Lawson was named a second-team CCHA all-star and the league’s best defensive defenseman (`08-’09), Cole was a first-team all-star in the same year while taking first team All-America honors and in 2011, Lorenz was honored as the CCHA’s top defensive defenseman and Johns was a second-team all-Hockey East choice. Most recently, Russo was a first team All-Hockey East selection and went on to earn second team All-America honors in 2015. In making the announcement of Pooley’s hiring, Jackson said, “Paul Pooley brings a certain level of integrity, work ethic and professionalism that I have great respect for. Our relationship in the past became a friendship, but our experience in the past will stay in the past. We’re hoping to re-establish a new center of excellence similar to the one that we had at Lake Superior State together.” The veteran coach joined the Irish staff after spending 11 seasons (19942005) as head coach at Providence College. During those 11 seasons, Pooley’s Friars were a combined 185-187-40, winning the Hockey East title in 1995-96 and appearing in two NCAA tournaments (1996 and 2001). The 2001 Hockey East and New England coach of the year and a two-time finalist for the Spencer Penrose Award as the national coach of the year, Pooley was instrumental in the development of four All-America players during his tenure at Providence - forwards Chad Quenneville and Devin Rask, goaltender Nolan Schaefer and defenseman Stephen Wood. Six players who played for him with the Friars - Hal Gill, Joe Hulbig, Fernando Pisani, Mike Farrell, Jon DiSalvatore and Schaefer - went on to play in the National Hockey League. A 1984 Ohio State graduate (cum laude in accounting and marketing), Pooley got his start in college coaching at his alma mater, serving as an assistant to Jerry Welsh with the Buckeyes for three seasons (1988-91) following the end of his professional career. No stranger to the CCHA, Pooley was one of the conference’s top players from 1980-84 and was a second-team selection to the conference’s all-decade team of the 1980’s. A three-time member of the CCHA’s all-academic team, he took Academic All-America honors in 1984. A second-team all-CCHA selection in 1981, he also was selected as the CCHA’s co-rookie of the year that season. Pooley capped his brilliant Ohio State career in 1984 as he was selected as the CCHA player of the year and

Bauer’s national player of the year, leading the nation in scoring with 32 goals and 64 assists for 96 points in 41 games. Selected first-team all-CCHA and first team All-America as a senior, Pooley is Ohio State’s all-time leader in goals (114), assists (156) and points (270) and joined the Ohio State Athletic Hall of Fame in 1994. He became the first Ohio State hockey player to have his number retired on Nov. 4, 2006 during a game between Notre Dame and the Buckeyes. A native of Exeter, Ontario, Pooley signed with the NHL’s Winnipeg Jets following his collegiate career and played two seasons with the Jets’ top farm team, the Sherbrooke Canadiens of the American Hockey League, playing on a Calder Cup championship team in 1985. He moved on to play one season with the Fort Wayne Komets of the International Hockey League where he was co-captain of a Komet team that won the 1987 regular-season championship. In his three seasons as a pro, Pooley played in 15 NHL games with the Jets. He retired in 1987 to go into private business with his twin brother, Perry, also an Ohio State hockey All-American. Pooley and his wife, Kelly, have two children - 21-year old, Scott, who is a sophomore hockey player at College of the Holy Cross, and 18-year old Taylor.

ANDY SLAGGERT

Associate Coach 23rd Season at Notre Dame Notre Dame ‘89

Andy Slaggert, a two-time hockey monogram winner for the Irish, begins his 23rd season as a coach with the University of Notre Dame hockey program and his seventh as associate coach after being promoted in the summer of 2008. Slaggert is currently the only person to be involved with the Notre Dame hockey program for 20-plus seasons. He holds the unique distinction of having played for the first two coaches of the modern era of Notre Dame hockey Lefty Smith and Ric Schafer - while also serving as an assistant for Schafer, Dave Poulin and Jeff Jackson. A tireless worker with a keen eye for talent, Slaggert coordinates the program’s highly successful recruiting plan that includes on-and-off campus recruiting and the observation and evaluation of prospective student-athletes. The popular coach was honored by his peers during the `09-’10 season when he was named the winner of the American Hockey Coaches Association’s Terry Flanagan Award for 2010. The award is named in honor of the former New Hampshire player and Bowling Green assistant and honors an assistant coach for his career body of work. Following the 2008-09 campaign, Slaggert received the Notre Dame hockey team’s Distinguished Alumnus Award that is presented each year to an alumnus of the program to acknowledge his accomplishments and the example he sets for others as an alumnus of the Notre Dame hockey program. During Slaggert’s 22 seasons as an assistant, he has been involved in the recruiting of 44 players who were selected in the National Hockey League Draft. That group of 44 includes first round selections Ian Cole (St. Louis in 2007), Kyle Palmieri (Anaheim in 2009) and Riley Sheahan (Detroit in 2010). This season, two members of the incoming freshman class have been drafted, including Dennis Gilbert (Chicago, third round) and Joe Wegwerth (Florida, fourth round). Last season, four members of the freshman class were drafted, including Connor Hurley (Buffalo, second round), Cal Petersen (Buffalo, fifth round), Anders Bjork (Boston, fifth round) and Jake Evans (Montreal, seventh round). Notre Dame enters the 2015-16 season with nine NHL draftees on its roster. The Irish also have had 35 players from the U.S. National Team Development Program play at Notre Dame with 17 playing for the U.S. Junior National Team in the World Junior Championships. The energetic and hard-working assistant has been highly involved with coaching on the national level since 1997.

40

During the summer of 2004, Slaggert reached his highest level when he was named head coach of the U.S. Under-17 select team that went on to finish second at the Five Nations Tournament in Halle, Germany.

The Coleman-Morse Center is the home to Notre Dame’s Academic Services for Student-Athletes. The center houses classrooms, staff offices, a tutoring center, a computer cluster, workrooms and a lounge available to all Notre Dame students. The office of Academic Services for Student-Athletes is designed to help Notre Dame fulfill its commitment to all student-athletes in their pursuit of college degrees and academic excellence. In order to achieve these goals, Academic Services has four major aims: to maintain the academic integrity of the University; to comply with University and NCAA rules and regulations; to maintain the academic good standing of every student-athlete; and to assist every student-athlete to graduate in four years. These objectives work together and are aimed at teaching student-athletes to be responsible for themselves academically. To this end, Academic Services provides student-athletes many services that begin when freshmen arrive on campus and continue through graduation. The office provides consistent counseling and appropriate interventions regarding academic matters and refers student-athletes to campus offices where they can meet regularly with their professors and use support services provided by the various colleges and departments. As soon as student-athletes begin classes, Academic Services monitors their progress through professor surveys that ask professors to comment on each student’s work level, attendance and any need for tutorial help. If a professor or student-athlete feels there is need for additional help, Academic Services provides tutorial assistance. In addition to this interaction with the faculty, the members of the Academic Services office meet with student-athletes to develop personal relationships. These sessions help develop semester-long and career academic goals. Discussions may include such topics as summer-school attendance, class scheduling and career possibilities. In 2001 the Academic-Services department received a new home through a generous donation by football alumnus Jim Morse and his wife, Leah Rae, when the Coleman-Morse Center was completed. A $14-million building, the James and Leah Rae Morse Center for Academic Services houses Notre Dame’s First Year of Studies Program and Academic Services for StudentAthletes. It also contains the University Writing Center and a satellite office for the Center for Social Concerns, plus classrooms, staff offices, a tutoring center, a computer cluster, workrooms and a lounge. Working alongside the athletic department’s Student Welfare and Development office, Academic Services helps coordinate numerous workshops and speakers to assist student-athletes with post-graduate planning and transition into professional careers. Offered in conjunction with the University Counseling Center, workshops cover such topics as stress management, socialization to college life, adjusting to physical trauma and conflict management.

THE FIGHTING IRISH

Russo was rewarded for his stellar 2014–15 season with a spot on the CCM Hockey

• Hockey East proved to be the country’s top conference in 2014–15 and two of its six best came from Notre Dame as both forward Vince Hinostroza and Russo earned first-team all-conference accolades. The coupling of Hinostroza and Russo marked the first time Notre Dame had two first-team all-conference picks in the same season since 1976–77 when Jack Brownschidle and Brian Walsh were both named to the all-WCHA first team. Additionally, Petersen earned league recognition as he was named as the goaltender on the Hockey East all-rookie team.

2014-15 Irish Awards and Honors

SEASON PREVIEW

• After tying for the national lead in goals scored among defensemen, senior Robbie

of the Week, Defensive Player of the Week or Rookie of the Week honor for five consecutive weeks between Feb. 9 and March 9. Highlighting that streak was his NCAA Division I record 87-save performance in Notre Dame’s 4-3 quintuple overtime loss to Massachusetts in the Hockey East playoffs first round (March 6). In February, Petersen led the nation by posting a .962 save percentage, stopping 279 of the 290 shots he faced.

THIS IS NOTRE DAME

• A young Irish hockey team, which regularly dressed seven or eight freshmen, came together as the year progressed en route to an 18-19-5 record. The team defeated three top-10 teams in February, including eventual national champion Providence and eventual national runner-up Boston University. Benefitting from the stronger second half to the season, Notre Dame finished 10-7-5 in Hockey East games, placing fifth of 12 teams in what proved to be the nation’s top conference in 2014–15.

Season In Review Anders Bjork (Boston), Thomas DiPauli (Washington), Jake Evans (Montreal), Steven Fogarty (New York Rangers), Hinostroza (Chicago), Connor Hurley (Buffalo), Mario Lucia (Minnesota), Petersen (Buffalo), Russo (New York Islanders) and Austin Wuthrich (Washington). • Off of the ice, senior Peter Schneider earned Capital One Academic AllAmerica honors on the spring at-large team. Boasting a 3.91 cumulative grade-point average as a double major, earning degrees in economics and finance and a minor in actuary from the Mendoza College of Business, Schneider also was named the recipient of the Notre Dame Club of St. Joseph Valley Rockne Student-Athlete Award for the third time in his career. Schneider was joined on the Hockey East allacademic team by teammates Joe Aiken, Tony Bretzman, Fogarty, Eric Johnson, Chad Katunar, Petersen, Luke Ripley, Andy Ryan and Nick Stasack.

• For the third time in as many seasons, father and son faced off against each other when Minnesota faced Notre Dame on Nov. 7 and 9. Don Lucia, a 1981 Notre Dame graduate and the head coach of the Gophers, faced his son, Irish left wing Mario Lucia. Don Lucia played four seasons (1977-81) at Notre Dame for Coach Lefty Smith, as a defenseman where he saw action in 124 games, scoring seven goals with 23 assists for 30 points. Now in his 16th season as the head coach at Minnesota, Lucia has been a collegiate head coach for 28 seasons. Mario, a junior, leads Notre Dame with 20 goals so far this season. In five games versus his dad’s team, Mario has two goals and one assist for three points. The Irish are 1-4-0 in the five contests. A second member of the Minnesota coaching staff, associate head coach Mike Guentzel, also sent a son to Notre Dame. Ryan Guentzel ‘11 played for Jeff Jackson at Notre Dame from 200711 and was a member of two Frozen Four teams (2008 and 2011).

• Freshman Anders Bjork (Mequon, Wis.) became the fourth Notre Dame hockey-playing son to follow his father to Notre Dame. His dad, Kirt Bjork, was an All-America at Notre Dame during the 1982-83 campaign and is tied for 12th on Notre Dame’s all-time points list with 161, after notching 76 goals and 85 assists in 141 career games. He is currently a director of regional development in Notre Dame’s development office. Anders Bjork also has another family tie to Irish hockey, as his cousin is former Irish standout Erik Condra, who is currently a member of the Ottawa Senators. As the fourth son to follow his father to Notre Dame, Anders joins current Irish left wing Mario Lucia (Don Lucia) and graduated players Kevin Nugent (Kevin Nugent, Sr.) and Rory Walsh (Brian Walsh) to play at Notre Dame after their fathers.

• Both Jordan Gross and Mario Lucia posted identical nine-game point scoring streaks which were both snapped on Saturday, Jan. 24 at Northeastern. The identical runs stand as the longest Notre Dame point scoring streaks since Ryan Thang recorded an 11-game streak from Feb. 9 to March 23, 2007. Gross and Lucia both contributed to the scoring on Dec. 5 at UMass and every game afterwards until the second night at Matthews Arena. Lucia had eight goals and three assists for 11 points over the run while Gross had 12 points, coming on three goals and nine assists. • With Bryan Rust playing in his first NHL game on Dec. 13, 2014 for the Pittsburgh Penguins, Notre Dame had six former players playing in the National Hockey League during the 2014-15 season. Rust joined Erik Condra (Ottawa), Anders Lee (New York Islanders), Riley Sheahan (Detroit), Ian Cole (St. Louis) and Kyle Palmieri (Anaheim). The most players the Irish have ever had in the NHL at one time is seven.

Vince Hinostroza led Notre Dame by posting a career-high 44 points on 11 goals and 33 assists during the 2014-15 season. He was named a 2015 All-Hockey East First Team selection.

RECORDS

Many heroes appeared for the Irish in the comeback win, but maybe none more so than freshman right winger Jake Evans, who found the back of the net for the game-tying and game-winning goals while also assisting on Notre Dame’s first lamp lighter.

HISTORY

With the win, the Irish (9-8-2) advance to the championship game of the two-day tournament to play Lake Superior State at 7:35 p.m. ET Monday. The Lakers beat Cornell in a shoot out in Sunday’s nightcap. Notre Dame already owns a pair of victories over Lake Superior State this year at Compton Family Ice Arena, 5-3 and 5-1.

In the first home varsity athletic contest since the passing of University president emeritus Fr. Theodore Hesburgh late Thursday night, the hockey team honored the campus icon prior to the game with a moment of silence and the a playing of a tribute video on the IrishVision screens. The team also wore round black remembrance decals on the back of their gold helmets saying “Fr. Ted.”

During the fifth overtime, the eternally-peppy Notre Dame hockey band counted down to the record like New Year’s Eve. The final of countless bursts of good cheer was the intrepid ensemble’s last, however as just 1:20 after breaking the record, UMass broke through to Notre Dame’s net. Rushing down ice, a UMass pass deflected oddly off of a defenseman and right to Walsh who scored and ended the contest just short of six hours after it began.

Attendance: 3,994 NOTRE DAME, Ind. -- Originally credited with a hat trick but later changed to just two goals, Steven Iacobellis of the Massachusetts hockey team normally would have been a star of the game but he was just one of 21 student-athletes in maroon merely happy to lift his arms in victory, assuming he had the strength remaining, after UMass beat Notre Dame, 4-3, in five overtimes Friday night in the longest hockey game in college hockey history. A Compton Family Ice Arena crowd of 3,994, several hundred of which stayed for more than 2.5 regulation games worth of action, saw history unfold. On a night where Notre Dame goaltender Cal Petersen set an NCAA record by making 87 saves, UMass goaltender Steve Mastalerz stopped 75 shots, tied for fifth-most in NCAA history, and Shane Walsh scored to end the contest at 1:24 a.m. EST after 151:42 of game-time. The previous record for the longest game in college hockey history was a 150:22 marathon where Quinnipiac defeated Union, 3-2, in the ECAC quarterfinals on March 12, 2010. The previous Notre Dame record was a mere 95:18, a mark set on March 23, 2007, against Alabama-Huntsville in the first round of the NCAA tournament. Tonight’s game eclipsed that mark by 56:24, nearly an entire regulation game.

HISTORY

Petersen made 23 saves to earn his fourth shutout of the season, matching the school’s freshman record set by David Brown in 2003-04. For the weekend, Petersen saved 132 of the 139 shots that he faced for a .950 save percentage. Despite the cumulative fatigue of playing 261:17 of hockey over three days, Petersen posted a 1.61 goals against average this weekend.

HOCKEY EAST

It marked the 10th time that the Irish have ever played in a decisive third game of a postseason series. Notre Dame is now 8-2 all-time in those situations, winning each of its last eight.

2014-15 SEASON IN REVIEW

NOTRE DAME, Ind. -- Two days after setting an NCAA Division I record for the most saves in a game, Cal Petersen matched Notre Dame’s freshman record by recording his fourth shutout of the season as the Irish hockey team blew past Massachusetts, 7-0, on Sunday night at the Compton Family Ice Arena. The Irish rallied back from Friday’s five overtime loss, the longest game in college hockey history at 151:42, to win the best-of-three Hockey East first round playoff series, 2-1.

COACHES AND STAFF

In addition to Hinostroza’s two goals, Thomas DiPauli had three assists for the Irish while Robbie Russo assisted on a pair of goals. Mario Lucia scored his 20th goal of the year and added an assist. A night after setting an NCAA Division I record for the most saves in a game with 87, Cal Petersen had a far more conventional evening in the Notre Dame net, stopping 22 out of the 25 shots he faced.

2nd Period

THE FIGHTING IRISH

The win evens the best-of-three Hockey East first round playoff series at one win apiece and sets up a decisive game three on Sunday night at the Compton Family Ice Arena between Notre Dame and UMass. The Irish would advance to a best-of-three quarterfinal series at UMass Lowell with a win on Sunday while, with re-seeding after the first round, UMass would travel to Boston University should it claim victory. The loser’s season will draw to a close.

NOTRE DAME, Ind. -- Yesterday, the Notre Dame and Massachusetts hockey teams stood tied after two periods and let that deadlock stand for hours before the Minutemen claimed the longest game in college hockey history 11:42 into the fifth overtime period. Tonight, similarly deadlocked after 40 minutes of play, Vince Hinostroza prevented a recurrence of Friday’s long march into early Saturday morning, scoring twice in the first 4:00 of the third period to lift the Irish to a 5-3 win.

strong presence off the ice and in the classroom. League athletes continue to demonstrate their commitment to overall excellence, as the Hockey East All-Academic Team honored a league-record 133 student-athletes for outstanding academic achievement during the 2014-2015 academic year, eight of whom achieved elite Distinguished Scholar status for qualifying for the All-Academic team in each of four seasons played. Hockey East athletes also make a positive impact on many community service programs across the region, volunteering with youth hockey associations and community service organizations. Six Hockey East athletes have received the prestigious Hockey Humanitarian Award, while nine others have been finalists for the honor. However, it is the quality of its individual players as leading athletes that most sets Hockey East apart from the rest. Nine Hockey East players have won the Hobey Baker Memorial Award as the top player in college hockey, most recently Boston University’s Jack Eichel, the first freshman to claim the trophy since Maine’s Paul Kariya in 1993. Dozens more have been named as finalists and hundreds of other Hockey East players have moved on to play in the NHL. A total of 601 Hockey East student-athletes have been selected in the NHL Entry Draft in the 32-year history of the league, and more than 75 Hockey East alums appeared on NHL rosters in 2014-2015, while three alumni captured the 2015 Stanley Cup with the Chicago Blackhawks (Trevor van Riemsdyk – UNH, Patrick Sharp – UVM, Scott Darling – Maine). The reach of Hockey East continues to grow as new state-of-the-art facilities are constructed, increasing capacities and amenities for college hockey fans. In turn, fans have responded with over one million spectators coming out to watch Hockey East teams during the 2014-15 season for the 10th consecutive year.

The Hockey East Association enters its 32nd season on the ice in 2015-16 as it has consistently proven as the strongest NCAA Division I college hockey conference from top to bottom, boasting the reigning NCAA National Champions and home of the two most recent Hobey Baker winners. Hockey East has seen a steady rise to prominence since its founding charter on July 11, 1983, when the possibility of an apparent Ivy League departure threatened the ECAC. In response, the athletics directors from Boston College, Boston University, New Hampshire, Northeastern and Providence unveiled a new Division I men’s ice hockey conference. Together, Bill Flynn of Boston College, John Simpson of Boston University, Andy Mooradian of New Hampshire, Joe Zabilski of Northeastern and Lou Lamoriello of Providence launched Hockey East with Lamoriello assuming the role of the league’s first commissioner. Later that summer, the Board of Directors added the University of Maine and the University of Lowell (now UMass Lowell). Official conference competition of the seven-team league began with the 1984-85 season. Soon after, the league expanded to nine teams with the additions of Merrimack College (1989) and the University of Massachusetts (1993). The entry of the University of Vermont for the 2005-06 season raised the conference membership to 10 teams before the University of Notre Dame was accepted as the league’s 11th member on October 5, 2011. The Fighting Irish started Hockey East play in 2013-14, the season before Hockey East’s newest program, the University of Connecticut, began play. Hockey East has set new competitive standards for college hockey success, annually compiling an impressive collective winning percentage against non-conference opponents, including a record .705 during the 2002-03 season and a .669 win percentage during the 25th anniversary season of 2008-09. Over the last 20 years, Hockey East has cemented itself as the nation’s elite college hockey league, having earned 32 of the 80 berths in the NCAA Frozen Four and boasting nine NCAA title winners: the University of Maine in 1993 and 1999, Boston University in 1995 and 2009, Boston College in 2001, 2008, 2010 and 2012 and Providence College in 2015. The recent run of Hockey East success has led to the conference winning five of the last eight national titles. In its most impressive NCAA postseason showing, Hockey East boasted three of the four Frozen Four participants in 1999, as Maine triumphed over UNH, 3-2, in overtime in an AllHockey East final, the second time in five seasons that had occurred. Hockey East sent three teams to the NCAA Tournament in 2015, marking 11 times in the last 12 seasons that three or more Hockey East teams have qualified. Two of those squads, Boston University and Providence, clashed in the NCAA title game at the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts. Hockey East has proven to be an equally

Irish Hockey History

THE EARLY YEARS

The team played one more season in 1926-27 under the guidance of Benjamin Dubois. That team went 3-7-1 before the program, due to lack of a playing venue, ceased competition. Despite sporadic attempts to revive the program from 1928 through the early 1960s - including one game in which Heisman Trophy winner Angelo Bertelli was reported to have scored four goals - Notre Dame hockey would not see consistent action until the 1963-64 season. THE CLUB YEARS

COACHES AND STAFF 2014-15 SEASON IN REVIEW HOCKEY EAST HISTORY RECORDS

The Notre Dame hockey teams of the 1920s included several well-known members of the school’s football team. The 1920-21 team (pictured above) featured goaltender Hunk Anderson (seated, second from left), an All-America offensive lineman in 1921 who served as head coach of the Notre Dame football program from 1931-33. Seated next to Anderson is Paul Castner (second from right), a two-time football AllAmerican as a running back. Castner served as a player/coach for the Notre Dame hockey program from 1919-21 before coaching the team for two more seasons following his graduation. The Rev. William F. Cunningham who played a key role in the early days of Irish hockey is in the middle of the back row.

THE FIGHTING IRISH

A club version of hockey began an era at Notre Dame that helped the program eventually reach Division I status. From 1963, until its move to Division I in the 1968-69 season, the Irish sponsored a club hockey program that produced several of the players who would play key roles in the early varsity years of the program in the late ‘60s. Around 1960, students organized, and the University recognized, the Notre Dame Hockey Club. Operating as a club sport, the team had a faculty advisor and reported to the director of intramurals and club sports, Dominic Napolitano. The club began intercollegiate play in the 1963-64 season. Arrangements were made to play on South Bend’s artificial rink (Howard Park) and campus-wide tryouts were held. Ralph Cardillo (Guelph, Ont.) served as the first captain and Paul Belliveau (Fitchburg, Mass.) notched the first goal. Playing club teams from Northwestern, Illinois, the Michigan State junior varsity and other Midwest varsity squads, Notre Dame went 0-5-0. In 1964-65, the club program improved to 5-6-0 under the guidance of coach Richard Bressler. The club also started an intramural program to give other

students access to the game of hockey. Prior to the start of the 1965-66 season, the University’s administration determined that hockey was to enter a “transition” period and the program was designated as a “minor sport.” That designation was assigned to help the program transition from a club sport to full varsity status. The hockey program came under the direction of Notre Dame vice-president Rev. Edmund P. Joyce, C.S.C., and athletics director Edward “Moose” Krause. The 1965-66 team began to receive funding from the athletic department and continued to play teams from the Midwest (Illinois, Wisconsin, Ohio State) and even branched out to the East Coast, participating in a Christmas tournament at the Boston Garden. Under coach Jerry Paquette, the Irish were 6-9-3. The program really began to take shape in 1966-67, playing mostly varsity-level programs while still being recognized as a club team. The Irish played in the first-ever collegiate hockey tournament played at Chicago Stadium hosted by the Blackhawks and the Wirtz family. The Irish defeated Illinois in the opening game of the tourney before falling 6-5 in the championship game to Ohio State. Notre Dame also won the Air Force Invitational at the Broadmoor World Arena on the way to a 14-5-3 record. The Irish were led offensively by Phil Wittliff (Port Huron, Mich.), Belliveau, alternate captain Tom Heiden (St. Paul, Minn.), captain Jim Haley (Boston, Mass.) and defensemen Eric Norri (Virginia, Minn.) and Frank Manning (Detroit, Mich.). Wittliff (who started his Notre Dame career on the football team), Norri and defenseman Dean Daigler (Tonawanda, N.Y.), all would go on to play on the first varsity team in 1968-69.

SEASON PREVIEW

From playing on frozen lakes around the University of Notre Dame campus, to an outdoor rink near Badin Hall along with South Bend’s Howard Park Rink, the Joyce Center and now the state-of-the-art Compton Family Ice Arena, the Notre Dame hockey program has experienced a little bit of everything in its on-again, off-again 100-year-plus history. While most followers of Notre Dame’s 47-year hockey history know the story since the program received Division I status in 1968, there are several earlier chapters that were the building blocks. Notre Dame first played collegiate hockey with records showing an informal game being played as early as 1911-12 at Culver Academy, a 7-1 Irish win. In 1912-13, the team played a three-game schedule going 1-2-0 in what is recognized as the first full season of Notre Dame hockey. After that early attempt to start hockey, the program took a seven-year hiatus, returning again in 1919-20. Two-time football All-America running back Paul Castner was seen skating on Saint Mary’s Lake when Tony Gorman, a Canadian, joined him to show him some of the finer points of the game. Before long, the duo started discussing the possibility of hockey at Notre Dame. They met with the Rev. William F. Cunningham, C.S.C., who according to The Dome, “was a priest who had played the game in the West. The Notre Dame lads proposed a hockey team to Cunningham who entered enthusiastically into the project.” Under Cunningham, who served in a variety of roles, including coach, manager, secretary, advisor and trainer, and Castner who served as player-coach for two years and then coach following graduation, the program grew. In four seasons at the helm, Castner’s teams were 18-4-0 while playing against the likes of Michigan College of Mines (now Michigan Tech), Carnegie Tech, Michigan, the Michigan Aggies (now Michigan State), Wisconsin, Culver Academy, St. Thomas and Assumption. While Castner led the team on ice, Cunningham played a key role off the frozen pond. According to the 1921 edition of The Dome, “Rev. W. F. Cunningham, C.S.C., manager of the team for two seasons, is the man who much of the success can be attributed. Father Cunningham is oblivious to ordinary difficulties and his spirit was the spirit of the team.” Castner was not the only football player to play a key role in the early days of the Notre Dame hockey program. All-America offensive lineman Hunk Anderson was the goaltender on the 1920-21 team. Anderson was followed by one of the most famous of all Irish athletes, Jim Crowley, who gained fame as the halfback in the Four Horseman backfield. Crowley was a freshman goaltender on the 1921-22 team that went 8-1, but his career was put on ice, so to speak, by legendary football coach Knute Rockne. Crowley recorded a pair of shutouts and turned in a stingy 1.33 goals-against average in his lone season between the Irish pipes. Following Castner behind the Notre Dame hockey bench was former football All-American Tom Leib. A two-time (1921 and 1922) All-American at right tackle, Leib’s teams were 3-8-3 between 1923-26.

Irish Hockey History Notre Dame Hockey Year-By-Year Results

This photo from January of 1941 shows Irish hockey players skating on the snow-covered Saint Mary’s Lake after clearing the ice with shovels. (Bloomfied Hills, Mich.) and John Barry (Chicago, Ill.) were the team’s goaltenders. Norri and Collins were both members of Notre Dame’s 1966 national championship football team while playing tackle and linebacker respectively. On March 16, 1967, it was announced that the Notre Dame hockey program would move to varsity status in 1968 at the time the new Athletic and Convocation Center was set to open. In 1967-68, the club team played its final season turning in a 13-3-0 mark - before making the move to Division I. THE RETURN TO VARSITY STATUS

The University hired Charles “Lefty” Smith as the program’s first coach for the 1968-69 season and the new Athletic and Convocation Center (later renamed the Joyce Center) opened, giving Notre Dame its first on-campus, indoor rink. Notre Dame competed as an independent from 1968-71, compiling a record of 50-32-6, providing Smith three seasons to build a competitive program before the Irish became members of the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA), beginning with the 197172 season. The Irish opened their decade of play in the WCHA with a 10-16-0 record and barely qualified for the playoffs. The following season saw four years of development pay off as Notre Dame proved it was capable of skating with the top college hockey teams in the nation. A 31-goal, 65-point effort from Eddie Bumbacco (Sault Ste. Marie, Ont.) led the WCHA in scoring and propelled the Irish to a series sweep of top-ranked Wisconsin. The team’s 19-9-0 conference record was good for a second-place finish in 1972-73. Smith was named WCHA coach of the year, while Bill Nyrop (Edina, Minn.) and Bumbacco became Notre Dame’s first hockey All-Americans. The Irish defeated North Dakota 13-3 in a two-game, total-goal WCHA playoff series, but Notre Dame lost to eventual national champion Wisconsin 8-7 in the second round of the conference playoffs. The Irish remained competitive in the WCHA over the next eight years but could do no better than another second-place finish in 1976-77. Several Notre Dame players gained national notoriety during that time, most notably Jack Brownschidle (East Amherst, N.Y.), who earned All-America honors in ’76 and ’77 and

88

remains the Notre Dame hockey program’s only twotime All-American. Brian Walsh (Cambridge, Mass.) earned All-America status and was named the 1976-77 WCHA MVP and Greg Meredith (Toronto, Ont.) earned All-America honors in 1979-80. Four years later, Notre Dame joined Michigan, Michigan State and Michigan Tech as the newest members of the Central Collegiate Hockey Association (CCHA). In 1981-82, Dave Poulin (Mississauga, Ont.) – a finalist for the Hobey Baker Award – led Notre Dame to a 23-15-2 record, a Great Lakes Invitational championship and a fourth-place finish in the regularseason standings. Following a first-round playoff series win over Michigan, the Irish defeated Bowling Green 8-5 in the semifinals before falling to Michigan State 4-1 in the title game. The Irish were unable to sustain that level the next season and struggled to a 13-21-2 record. Following Notre Dame’s loss to Bowling Green in a first-round playoff series, the University announced in the spring of 1983 that it would cease sponsoring varsity hockey. After competing as a club sport during 1983-84, varsity hockey returned to Notre Dame the following season (1984-85) when the Irish began

season. Notre Dame faced two-time defending NCAA champion Minnesota in the opening game at Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids, Mich. After taking a 2-0 firstperiod lead, the Irish fell to the Gophers 5-2, but Notre Dame had finally arrived on the national level. Following a disappointing ’04-’05 season (5-27-6), Poulin stepped down as head coach, turning over the reins to Jeff Jackson, who has continued to take the Irish to national success. In his first season at the helm, Jackson and his staff saw solid improvement as the team improved to 13-194 overall and earned home ice in the first round of the CCHA tournament with an 11-13-4 conference record. Jackson’s second year behind the bench saw the Irish turn in the finest season in the program’s history. With a veteran squad led by eight seniors, including first-team All-America - the eighth All-American in school history - goaltender David Brown (Stoney Creek, Ont.), Notre Dame compiled a school-record 32 wins on the way to a 32-7-3 mark and won its first

COACHES AND STAFF

Phil Wittliff got his Irish hockey career started as a member of the football team. After playing one season with the club hockey team, he was the leading scorer on the first Irish hockey team of the modern era (1968-69) and then served as captain in 1969-70 and 1970-71.

THE FIGHTING IRISH

CCHA regular-season title with a 21-4-3 league record. Along the way, Jackson’s squad achieved the first number one-ranking in school history and was the top team in the nation for seven consecutive weeks from Feb. 5 to March 23. The Irish swept Alaska (7-1, 3-1) in the second round to move to the CCHA semifinals. In Detroit, Brown blanked Lake Superior 3-0 in the semis and the Irish knocked off Michigan 2-1 in the championship game for the school’s first CCHA tournament championship. Notre Dame made its second NCAA Championship appearance at Grand Rapids, Mich., this time as the Midwest Regional’s top seed. There, the Irish won their first NCAA game, a 3-2 double-overtime thriller (the longest game in program history - 94:32) versus Alabama-Huntsville. The dream season came to an end the following night in a heartbreaking 2-1 loss to eventual NCAA champion Michigan State. In 2007-08, Notre Dame went one step further, advancing to the NCAA Frozen Four where the Irish fell in the national championship game 4-1 to Boston College. They finished the year with a 27-16-4 overall record and were 15-9-4 in the CCHA, good for fourth place. Late-season scoring struggles almost cost Notre Dame an NCAA bid, but the Irish made it in as the final at-large team in the tournament. In the West Regional at Colorado Springs, Colo., the Irish found the goal-scoring touch as they dispatched the region’s top-seed, New Hampshire 7-3 and then bounced Michigan State with a 3-1 win. Notre Dame became the first No. 4 seed to make the NCAA Frozen Four and would face the nation’s topranked team, Michigan, in the semifinals at the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colo. Freshman left wing Calle Ridderwall (Stockholm, Sweden) became an overnight Irish hero when his goal at 5:44 of overtime sent Michigan home with a 5-4 loss and the Irish to the title

20-win season (20-15-4) since 1987-88, with a fourthplace finish (14-11-3) in the CCHA. The Irish played hosted regional rival Western Michigan, winning the playoff series two games to one. Notre Dame did not have much success at the CCHA Super Six, losing in the opening game each year – to Northern Michigan (3-1) in ’01-’02 and Ohio State (3-2 and 6-5 in overtime) in ’02-’03 and ’03-’04 respectively. The highly successful 2003-04 season ended with the Irish being selected to participate in their first-ever NCAA Championship on the strength of a 5-1-1 record versus teams ranked in the top five during the regular

competing as a non-scholarship independent team. Smith remained at the helm through the end of the 1986-87 campaign, compiling a 19-year record of 307320-30. The most impressive statistic from the Smith era is that all 126 players who completed their collegiate eligibility earned their college degrees. In 1987, Smith turned the program over to Ric Schafer (New Brighton, Minn.), a four-time monogram winner for the Irish from ’70-’74 and an assistant coach under Smith from 1975-80. Notre Dame hockey continued as an independent during the first four seasons of Schafer’s tenure, but with each year, the schedule became increasingly difficult and soon was littered with CCHA opponents. Schafer convinced the Notre Dame administration to gradually allocate scholarships as the program continued to grow and his efforts culminated with Notre Dame’s return to the CCHA for the 1992-93 season. Prior to stepping down as head coach following the 1994-95 campaign, Schafer compiled a 112-152-15 record over eight seasons and will be remembered as the coach who returned Notre Dame hockey to a competitive Division I level. In 1995, Notre Dame turned to its most distinguished hockey alumnus to take over behind the bench. Dave Poulin returned to his alma mater following a 13-year career in the National Hockey League. During Poulin’s 10-year tenure, Notre Dame made steady improvements and continued to earn national recognition. In 1998-99, the Irish hosted a first-round CCHA playoff series for the first time since 1982, after spending most of the year ranked in the national top 10. Defenseman Benoit Cotnoir (Rouyn-Noranda, Que.) became the program’s seventh All-American. The following season produced another milestone as the Irish beat Ferris State in the first round of the CCHA playoffs and made their second-ever trip to Joe Louis Arena for the CCHA semifinals. In 2001-02 and 2002-03, the Irish pulled off playoff upsets and advanced to Joe Louis and the CCHA Super Six. In a five-year span, from 1999-00 to 2003-04, Notre Dame made it to Joe Louis Arena four times (2000, 2002, 2003, 2004). In 2001-02, the Irish upset higher-seeded NebraskaOmaha in a series that featured a 3-2 double-overtime loss to the Mavericks, followed by one-goal wins in games two and three. The following year, the Irish traveled to higherseeded Miami (Ohio) and — after dropping the first game, 4-2 — saw goaltender Morgan Cey (Wilkie, Sask.) spin back-to-back shutouts (a first in Notre Dame history), winning 1-0 and 5-0 to advance to “the Joe” again.

Jackson’s fourth season behind the bench in 200809 saw the Irish win their second CCHA regular-season and tournament championship with a 31-6-3 overall mark and a 21-4-3-3 in conference play. From Oct. 31 to Jan. 17, Notre Dame set a school record with a 20-game unbeaten streak (17-0-3). During the season, Notre Dame spent seven weeks ranked No. 1 in the nation. The Irish were led by goaltender Jordan Pearce (Anchorage, Alaska) who led the nation in wins (30) and shutouts (eight) with a stingy 1.68 goals-against average. In the CCHA playoffs, Pearce blanked Nebraska-Omaha in back-toback quarterfinal games to advance Notre Dame to its third straight trip to the CCHA championship at Joe Louis Arena. In Detroit, the Irish won their second CCHA title, stopping Northern Michigan 2-1 in the semifinals before rallying from a 2-0 deficit versus Michigan in the championship game on the way to a 5-2 win. In the NCAA Championship, the Irish were the top seed in the Midwest Regional at Grand Rapids, Mich., and were upset in the opening round in a 5-1 loss to Bemidji State. Defenseman Ian Cole (Ann Arbor, Mich.) and forward Erik Condra (Livonia, Mich.) became the ninth and 10th Irish Notre Dame players to be named AllAmericans following the season. Following a disappointing 2009-10 season that was marred by injuries, the Irish returned to the top of the national scene in 2010-11 by advancing to the NCAA Frozen Four for the second time. Notre Dame turned in a 25-14-5 overall record and a second-place finish in the CCHA. After winning the NCAA Northeast Regional with wins over Merrimack (4-3 in overtime) and New Hampshire (2-1), the Irish faced off in St. Paul, Minn., versus Minnesota-Duluth in the NCAA semifinals. At the Xcel Energy Center, the Bulldogs prevailed with a 4-3 win against Notre Dame on the way to an overtime win versus Michigan in the national title game. The program achieved a first in ‘10-’11 as freshman T.J. Tynan (Orland Park, Ill.) led the nation’s rookies in scoring and, besides being the Irish and CCHA rookie of the year, was named the Hockey Commissioner’s Association’s (HCA) national rookie of the year.

In 10 seasons behind the Notre Dame bench, Jackson has seen his teams record a 226-143-40 mark, two regular-season CCHA titles, three Mason Cup championships, five trips to the NCAA Championship and two Frozen Four visits. Recognition for Notre Dame hockey though has continued to grow. In the first 47 years of the program, NHL teams have drafted 80 Irish players, including five in the 2007 and 2010 Entry Drafts. Since 2007, Notre Dame has seen four of its players selected in the first round. The 2014-15 campaign saw six former Notre Dame players see ice time with NHL teams.

NCAA Tournament History 2004 NCAA Tournament - Championship Midwest Regional #3 Minnesota 5 • #13 Notre Dame 2 March 27, 2004 • Grand Rapids, Mich. The Notre Dame hockey team made its first-ever NCAA Championship appearance at Van Andel Championship Arena in Grand Rapids, Mich. The opponent was the two-time defending national champion and third-ranked Minnesota Golden Gophers. The Irish jumped out to a 2-0 first-period lead on goals by Cory McLean and Aaron Gill only to see the Gophers score five unanswered goals on the way to a 5-2 win over Notre Dame. Sophomore All-American Thomas Vanek led Minnesota’s comeback with two goals and an assist. Matt Koalska, Danny Irmen (ppg) and Troy Riddle also scored for the Gophers. The Irish got on the scoreboard just 54 seconds into the contest as McLean teamed with Gill on a two on one to beat Minnesota goaltender Kellen Briggs for McLeasn’s 10th goal of the year. Notre Dame took advantage of a Minnesota penalty late in the first period and made it 2-0 at 19:18 on the power play. Rob Globke and Mike Walsh set up Gill’s team-high ninth power-play goal of the year on a redirection past Briggs for Gill’s 17th of the year. Koalska cut the lead in half to open the middle stanza with a goal just 26 seconds into the period. The powerful Gopher offense would even the score at 9:13 when Irmen steered a bouncing puck past Morgan Cey for a power-play tally to make it 2-2. Vanek put the Gophers ahead to stay 3-2 at 16:24 when he poked a loose puck past Cey for his first goal of the game. The talented Vanek sealed the win at 11:52 of the final period when he beat Cey on a wrap-around goal to make it 4-2. Riddle closed out the scoring for Minnesota with an empty-net goal at 19:24 to end Notre Dame’s season. Cey equaled a season high with 40 saves. Briggs made 20 saves in the Minnesota goal.

Notre Dame made its first NCAA Championship appearance in 2004 at the Midwest Regional held in Grand Rapids, Mich. The Irish faced off against two-time defending champion Minnesota and, despite taking a 2-0 lead after one period, fell to the third-ranked Gophers 5-2 at Van Andel Arena. 2007 NCAA Championship - Semifinal Midwest Regional #1 Notre Dame 3 • Alabama-Huntsville 2 (2ot) March 23, 2007 • Grand Rapids, Mich. For over 94 minutes, Notre Dame and AlabamaHuntsville battled tooth and nail, looking for that one scoring chance to end the contest. This time the luck of the Irish was in full force as freshman Ryan Thang drilled a shot from the left wing circle that beat Charger goaltender Marc Narduzzi to give Notre Dame the 3-2 win in the longest game in Irish hockey history. The win also was the first NCAA Tournament victory in Irish hockey history and advanced Notre Dame to the Midwest Regional finals to face Michigan State. Notre Dame got off to a fast start, scoring a pair of goals in the first five minutes of the game as senior left wing Josh Sciba scored just 3:18 into the game. Thang followed with his first goal of the night at 4:26 when he took a feed from Erik Condra and ripped a low shot that beat Blake MacNicol, giving the Irish a 2-0 lead. The goal sent MacNicol to the UAH bench in favor of Marc Narduzzi. Alabama got back in the game at 10:20 of the second period as Dominick Rozman’s shot deflected off an Irish defenseman past David Brown to cut the Notre Dame lead to 2-1. The Chargers would get the equalizer at 16:06 when Cale Tanaka fired a shot from the slot that beat Brown to the upper corner. From there the goaltenders took over. Brown would finish with 28 saves in the game while Narduzzi made 49 saves, giving up just one goal. The Irish got the game winner via the power play. Defensemen Brett Blatchford and Kyle Lawson played catch at the point until Lawson slid a pass to the left wing boards where Thang took the puck and whipped a shot over Narduzzi’s blocker for the game winner. Thang’s goal was his 20th of the season and set off a wild celebration on the ice as the Irish had their first NCAA Championship win and lived to play another day.

The Notre Dame 2006-07 hockey season will go down as the one of the best in the program’s history as the Irish set record after record on the way to a 32-7-3 final tally. The ride came to an end though as CCHA foe Michigan State handed the Irish a 2-1 loss in the NCAA Midwest Regional championship game. Chris Mueller and Tim Kennedy scored power-play goals for the Spartans while junior Evan Rankin scored Notre Dame’s lone goal in the loss. The regional championship got off to a slow start as the two teams tried to get a read on each other. The game would remain scoreless after one period of play. Michigan State finally broke through at 6:04 of the second period as Mueller stuffed a rebound on the power play past David Brown for a 1-0 lead. The lead would go to 2-0 on another power-play chance at 5:59 of the third period. Working the puck behind the net, Kennedy walked in front and tucked the puck between Brown’s pads for his 17th goal of the year.

2008 NCAA Championship - Finals West Regional #12 Notre Dame 3 • #9 Michigan State 1 March 29, 2008 • Colorado Springs, Colo. The Notre Dame hockey team earned its first-ever trip to the Frozen Four with a 3-1 win over Michigan State in the championship game of the NCAA West Regional at the Colorado Springs World Arena. The Fighting Irish became the first team seeded fourth in a regional to advance to the NCAA Frozen Four and avenged their 2-1 loss to the Spartans in the ‘06-’07 Midwest Regional final. Christian Hanson, Mark Van Guilder and Teddy Ruth scored for Notre Dame in the victory with Van Guilder getting the game winner with 5:54 remaining in the third period. Michigan State dominated play early in the game but could not get the puck past goaltender Jordan Pearce who stopped all 10 first-period shots. Hanson broke through on the scoreboard for the Irish at 2:43 of the second stanza when he stuffed a rebound past Spartan goaltender Jeff Lerg. That gave Hanson three goals and an assist in the two games and earned him a spot on the all-regional team.

Michigan State’s Justin Abdelkader banged a laser off the crossbar three minutes later, then tied the game with 10:55 to play in the period when he put a one-timer from the left circle behind Pearce to make it 1-1. The game would remain that way until Van Guilder snapped the tie with just under six minutes left in the game. He took a pass from Ben Ryan and beat Lerg inside the near post with wrist shot from the slot. The Irish added an insurance goal just 1:14 later when Ruth put a slap shot past Lerg high on the glove side with assists to Justin White and Hanson. The Notre Dame defense played a huge role in both victories. The Irish blocked 12 shots in the victory over Michigan State University and killed all four Spartan power plays and all nine in the two regional games. Pearce allowed just one goal on 21 Michigan State shots and had 32 saves in the victory over New Hampshire, posting back-to-back victories over Hobey Baker semifinalists Lerg and Kevin Regan. Van Guilder, Hanson and defenseman Brock Sheahan were selected to the NCAA West Regional alltournament team with Van Guilder being named most outstanding player.

Pollastrone gave the Wildcats a 1-0 lead at 1:04 of the first as he fired a rebound shot past Jordan Pearce. The Irish answered back 58 seconds later on the power play when Cole drilled a wrist shot through Kevin Regan’s pads to tie the game at the 2:02 mark. UNH made it 2-1 at 5:41 when Pollastrone got his second of the period and the game, beating Pearce on a rebound to make it 2-1. Notre Dame would tie the score at 2-2 with a powerplay goal at 17:25.

NCAA Tournament History 2008 NCAA Championship - Semifinal Frozen Four #5 Notre Dame 5 • #41 Michigan 4 (ot) April 10, 2008 • Denver, Colo. Freshman left wing Calle Ridderwall scored his second goal of the game at 5:44 of overtime, lifting fifthranked Notre Dame to a 5-4 victory over top-seeded Michigan in the NCAA Frozen Four semifinals at a soldout (18,544) Pepsi Center in Denver. The win moved the Irish into their first national championship game versus Boston College. Ridderwall came into the game with three goals in his rookie season, but he saved some of his best play of the year for college hockey’s biggest stage as he also scored the opening goal in the first period. He was joined on the Irish side of the scoresheet by Mark Van Guilder, Ryan Thang and Kevin Deeth. Chad Kolarik scored twice for Michigan with Matt Rust and Carl Hagelin getting single goals in the loss. Ridderwall opened the scoring just five minutes into the game when he rifled a shot over Michigan goaltender Billy Sauer’s right shoulder for his fourth goal of the year. Just 42 seconds later, the Irish had a 2-0 lead when Thang dropped a pass for Van Guilder who ripped a shot from the left circle under Sauer’s left arm for his 13th of the season at 5:42. Thang took his turn at 19:25 of the first period when he scored a brilliant short-handed goal, beating the Wolverine defense at the blueline, then flipping a backhander over Sauer’s blocker for his 18th goal of the year and a 3-0 Irish lead. Sauer was replaced by Bryan Hogan in the Michigan goal to start the second period and he held the Irish at bay until the Wolverines could get back in the game. They would score twice in a 15-second span midway through the middle period to get back in the game. Kolarik scored his first of the night at 8:48 with a wrist shot over the left shoulder of Notre Dame goaltender Jordan Pearce. Seconds later, Rust redirected an Aaron Palushaj pass from the left corner behind Pearce at 9:03 to make it a 3-2 game after two periods. The Wolverines would get the equalizer on the power play at 2:16 of the third period as Kolarik scored his second of the game off his own rebound for his 30th goal of the year. The Irish grabbed the lead back with 8:30 remaining in the game as Dan Kissel and Deeth combined on a two-on-one play. Kissel put a pass on Deeth’s stick and the sophomore center cut in front of the goal, chipping a shot over Hogan for his 10th goal of the season to give Notre Dame the 4-3 lead. Michigan answered back, tying the game at 4-4 at 14:39 when Hagelin won the race to a loose puck in the Irish zone and fired a shot from the goal line that somehow found its way between Pearce’s pad and the near post to send the game into overtime. That set up Ridderwall’s overtime heroics. White dropped a pass to the right point to defenseman Dan VeNard. The senior blueliner drilled a low shot on goal that Hogan stopped with the rebound sliding to the slot. Ridderwall was there and put his head down driving the puck past Hogan to set off a wild celebration on the Pepsi Center ice with the 5-4 Notre Dame win. The win was the first in overtime for the Irish during the 2007-08 season and their first since defeating Alabama-Huntsville in the 2006-07 NCAA Championship.

The Notre Dame hockey team ventured where no other Irish hockey squad had ever been. It faced off in the NCAA Frozen Four championship game against Boston College at the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colo. The Irish ran into a red-hot Nathan Gerbe as the third-ranked Eagles ended Notre Dame’s season with a 4-1 loss in front of a sell-out crowd of 18,632. Gerbe scored twice and assisted on Boston College’s other two goals on his way to a four-point game and most valuable player honors. Kevin Deeth scored the lone goal for the Irish who finished the year with a 27-16-4 record. Both teams had chances in a tightly-played first period that led to the fourth scoreless opening frame in NCAA title game history (also 1968, 2001 and 2007).

Boston College ended up with a 7-4 shot advantage in the opening 20 minutes, while Notre Dame went on the power play three times in the period, coming up empty on all three. The Eagles snapped the scoreless tie just 2:23 into the second period, converting an Irish turnover into a goal. Brian Gibbons forced the turnover and found Gerbe inside the left circle where he whipped a shot over Jordan Pearce’s left shoulder for his 34th goal of the year. Gerbe was at it less than three minutes later, this time on a Boston College power play. Ben Smith’s shot from the slot was wide of the goal but rebounded off the back dasherboards into the crease where the Eagles’ top scorer was there to jam the rebound past Pearce for a 2-0 lead at 5:37. Boston College made it 3-0 at 8:11 of the second period, converting a second power-play chance, this time with a four-on-three advantage. Joe Whitney did the honors as he took a feed from Gerbe at the top of the slot and drove a slapshot past Pearce for his 11th goal of the year. The Irish finally broke through just over a minute later at 9:07 when Deeth took a feed from defenseman Kyle Lawson and snapped a shot past Eagles’ goaltender John Muse to cut the lead to 3-1 after two periods of play. Notre Dame looked like it had cut the margin to 3-2 just 4:56 into the third period. Ian Cole’s centering pass got caught up in Lawson’s skates near the right post and deflected toward the goal, trickling past Muse and over the goal line. Although it was ruled a goal on the ice by referee Todd Anderson, video replay official Greg Shepherd overturned the score after a lengthy delay, ruling the puck was apparently propelled into the net by Lawson’s skate in a distinct kicking motion. The no-goal call took on added significance less than a minute later when Boston College scored to make it a 4-1 game. Gerbe tracked down the puck behind the net and threw a centering pass back in front for Smith, who fanned on his shot attempt but got enough of the bouncing biscuit for it to knuckle over Pearce’s shoulder at 5:31 of the period for the final score of 4-1. Pearce finished with 19 saves in goal while Muse stopped 20 in the game. The Irish were zero-for-eight on the power play while Boston College was able to convert on two of four tries. Pearce finished the year with 23 wins and the team’s 27 wins were the second most in the program’s history. Lawson and Deeth were selected to the Frozen Four alltournament team.

THE FIGHTING IRISH

The Irish would pull Pearce with just under four minutes left in favor of a sixth attacker only to see the Beavers win a big faceoff before Schofield fired a loose puck into an empty net for the final margin of 5-1. Pearce would finish the game with 14 saves while Dalton made 34 stops in the Bemidji net. GAME  SUMMARY 1 2 3 F Bemidji State 2 1 2 – 5 #2 Notre Dame 0 0 1 – 1

SEASON PREVIEW

2009 NCAA Championship - Semifinal Midwest Regional Bemidji State 5 • #2 Notre Dame 1 March 28, 2009 • Grand Rapids, Mich. The Fighting Irish made their third consecutive appearance in the NCAA Tournament, this time as the No. 1 seed at the Midwest Regional, facing Bemidji State. For Notre Dame, everything that could go wrong did, at Van Andel Arena, as the Irish were upset by the Beavers in a 5-1 loss. Ranked second in the nation coming into the regional, the loss ended Notre Dame’s season with a 31-6-3 record. Bemidji went on to win the regional and advance to its first ever NCAA Frozen Four. The first Bemidji goal would set the tone for the entire game. The Beavers dumped the puck behind the Irish net, where senior goaltender Jordan Pearce came out to play it. The puck took a funny bounce off the back dasher, then caromed off the side of the goal and back into the crease at the right post. As Pearce scrambled to get back in his net, Bemidji State’s Chris McKelvie came charging in from the right wing and chopped at the puck, muscling it over the line just 1:42 into the contest. The Beavers would make it 2-0 at 11:03 of the first when Tyler Schofield scored on a power-play deflection between Pearce’s pads. Notre Dame had its chances in the first period, outshooting Bemidji by an 11-7 margin. The lead would go to 3-0 in the second period when Ben Kinne’s shot from the point caromed through a crowd behind Pearce at 13:19. The Irish would start the third period on the power play, but their hopes would die just 49 seconds into the third period when Matt Read blasted a slapshot from the top of the right circle over Pearce’s blocker to give the Beavers a 4-0 lead. Notre Dame would finally get on the board at 6:02 when Dan Kissel buried a shot past Bemidji goaltender Matt Dalton from the left circle for his sixth goal of the year to cut the lead to 4-1.

THIS IS NOTRE DAME

The Irish advanced to the 2008 NCAA Frozen Four title game on April 12, 2008, in Denver against Boston College. The Eagles used a three-goal second period to take the national championship over Notre Dame 4-1 at the Pepsi Center.

Maday and senior Calle Ridderwall added single goals in the victory. Merrimack got goals from Kyle Bigos, Ryan Flanigan and Rhett Bly, as the Warriors led 2-0 in the first period and 3-1 midway through the second. Notre Dame outshot the Warriors 37-35. Irish goaltender Mike Johnson made 32 saves while Merrimack’s Joe Cannata had 33. The victory improved the ninth-ranked Irish to 24-135 while seventh-ranked Merrimack closed its season with a 25-10-4 mark. The Warriors jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first period, scoring once on the power play and once shorthanded. Bigos opened the scoring at 13:23 when he managed to jam a loose puck in the crease past Johnson for his second goal of the season. Merrimack got its second goal of the night as Flanigan teamed with Stephane DeCosta on a two-onone short-handed goal at 16:00 for the 2-0 lead. The Irish answered 27 seconds later on the power play as Ridderwall ripped a shot from between the hashmarks, beating Cannata for his 15th goal of the season. Merrimack built the lead to 3-1 at 2:58 of the middle stanza as Bly backhanded a shot over Johnson. Notre Dame cut the lead to 3-2 at 13:29 when Lee fired a wrist shot over Cannata’s glove hand and into the upper right corner. Bryan Rust cleared the puck out of the Irish zone from the right boards to Lee who raced down the left side and fired from the top of the left circle, scoring his team-high 23rd goal of the season. The Irish got the equalizer at 5:32 of the third period as Maday drove to the goal and was able to get a stick on the puck and push it through the goaltender’s pads for his ninth goal of the season and a 3-3 tie. While the Irish ended regulation with the momentum, Merrimack came out flying in the extra stanza putting the pressure on the Notre Dame goal with six shots in the first five minutes. Lee would get the game winner at 5:18 on pure hustle and a little bit of luck. Off a faceoff, the Irish threw the puck into the Merrimack zone where a Warrior defender skated behind the goal with Lee in pursuit. As the defenseman cut inside at the right post, Lee took a swing at the puck and deflected it past Cannata to give Notre Dame its first and only lead of the night and the win.

For the third time in five trips to the NCAA Championship, Notre Dame would play in a regional championship game, this time facing New Hampshire at Verizon Wireless Arena in Manchester, N.H. Sophomore goaltender Mike Johnson stopped 37 of 38 shots and got goals from Stephen Johns and Billy Maday as the Fighting Irish downed the Wildcats 2-1 to send Notre Dame to the NCAA Frozen Four for the second time in the program’s 43-year history. Johnson held the Wildcats off the scoreboard early in the game and then withstood their third-period comeback attempt. The Verona, Wis., native finished the weekend with 69 saves and a pair of wins. The lone New Hampshire goal came with 6:23 left in the game and was scored by Mike Sislo. The victory improved ninth-ranked Notre Dame to 25-13-5 overall while 11th-ranked New Hampshire finished the year with a 22-11-6 mark. Following a television timeout at the 7:11 mark of the first period, the Irish got their second shot of the period and it found the back of the Wildcat net. Johns got Notre Dame on the scoreboard at 7:26 of the first as he hammered a shot from the center point past netminder Matt DiGirolamo’s stick hand for the 1-0 lead. With time running down in the second, Riley Sheahan centered a pass from the New Hampshire goal line. The puck found Maday at the bottom of the left circle where he got off a backhander that beat DiGirolamo at 19:55 to give the Irish a 2-0 lead. The goal was Maday’s second of the weekend and 10th of the season. New Hampshire broke through on Johnson, snapping his shutout bid at 13:37 of the third period, on a goal by Sislo from right in front to cut Notre Dame’s lead to 2-1. From there the Irish held off the Wildcats, including a penalty kill in the final four minutes. Notre Dame was outshot by New Hampshire 38-36. DiGirolamo finished with 34 saves in the Wildcat goal. The win improved the Irish to 6-4 all-time in NCAA Championship games. Four Notre Dame players were selected to the all-Northeast Regional Team.

The second stanza belonged to St. Cloud State as the Huskies scored three times to open a 4-0 lead after 40 minutes of play.

After 60 minutes, the Irish had outshot St. Cloud State by a 36-12 margin, but the score remained tied 3-3. In overtime, the tide changed, as the Huskies controlled the play and the Irish were forced to kill two penalties in the period to keep the game even. On the final play, the Irish turned it over at their own blue line twice with David Morley controlling the puck. He fed it ahead to Dowd who finished Notre Dame’s season with a perfect shot that hit the cross bar and went in for the 4-3 game winner.

The Irish got goals from seniors Bryan Rust and Kevin Lind and sophomore Thomas DiPauli to offset St. Cloud State goals by Ryan Papa, Brooks Bertsch and Jonny Brodzinski to set up Dowd’s heroics. Notre Dame outshot the Huskies by a 42-28 margin, holding St. Cloud State to just six shots in the second and third periods combined. Summerhays finished with 24 saves, including 15 in overtime as the Huskies had a 16-6 margin in extra time while junior Ryan Faragher had 39 saves in the win. The loss ended the season for the Irish with a 23-152 overall record, including an 8-3-1 mark since Feb. 8. The Huskies got the first goal of the game off a pretty passing play along the Notre Dame goal line with Papa getting the goal, his sixth of the season at 6:54. The Irish would answer at the 10:30 mark of the first with Rust getting his 17th of the season as he snapped a wrist shot past Faragher to tie the game at 1-1. St. Cloud re-took the lead with 34.9 seconds left in the first as Bertsch was left alone in front and took a centering pass from center Cory Thornson and threw it over Summerhays to make it 2-1 heading into the first intermission. Notre Dame dominated the second period, outshooting the Huskies by an 18-4 margin but could score just once. That goal came at 8:18 of the second stanza as Lind drilled a laser beam from the right circle past Faragher to tie the game at 2-2. For the second period in a row, St. Cloud scored in the final minute, with this one coming on the power play with 24.5 seconds left on the clock as the Irish could not get the puck out of their own zone. Kossila had his pass deflected to Brodzinski at the top of the left circle and the Huskies’ leading scorer wasted no time whipping a shot past Summerhays and inside the right post for his 21st goal of the year to give St. Cloud the 3-2 lead.

The lead would go to 3-0 at 13:35 when Thornson tucked a shot between Summerhays’ pads for his 11th goal of the year. Brodzinski, St. Cloud’s leading goal scorer on the year, closed out the period with his 22nd of the season at 14:43 to make it a 4-0 game.

The Irish were forced to kill three consecutive penalties and held St. Cloud State off the scoreboard while finally breaking through on Faragher with a shorthanded goal at 7:44 to make it a 4-1 game. With the Huskies applying pressure in the Irish zone, Bryan Rust broke up a pass and carried the puck to the top of the left circle in the St. Cloud State zone. There he fired a shot at Faragher. The sophomore made the stop but Voran fired the rebound over his glove for his fifth of the year. The Huskies then closed out the scoring with their second power-play goal of the night, with Benik banging a rebound past Johnson for his fifth of the season at 11:07 for the 5-1 final. The Huskies were two for seven on the power play while the Irish had just one chance and did not convert. St. Cloud State outshot Notre Dame 23-18 in the game. Faragher made 17 saves in picking up the victory. Johnson made four saves in the final 20 minutes of the game.

Francis Patrick O’Connor Award 2008-09 Erik Condra 2006-07 T.J. Jindra William Donald Nyrop Award Defensive Player of the Year Bill Nyrop was one of the finest defenseman ever to play at Notre Dame. The Edina, Minn., native was a standout blueliner from 1970-74, playing in 119 games with 17 goals and 72 assists for 89 points. Selected in the fifth round of the 1972 NHL Entry Draft by the Montreal Canadiens, Nyrop was selected second team all-WCHA in 1973 and was an All-American selection that season. In 2002, he was chosen to the WCHA’s 50th anniversary team along with teammate Jack Brownschidle. Following his Notre Dame career, Nyrop went on to play on three Stanley Cup championship teams with the Montreal Canadiens (1976-78). He passed away on Dec. 31, 1995 due to cancer at the age of 43. His memory and legacy at Notre Dame will live on with the William Donald Nyrop defensive player of the year award that is presented to the team’s top defensive player each season. 2014-15 2013-14 2012-13 2011-12 2010-11 2009-10 2008-09 2007-08 2006-07 2005-06 2004-05 2003-04 2002-03 2001-02 2000-01 1999-00 1998-99 1997-98

Charles “Lefty” Smith Coaches Award Charles “Lefty” Smith came to Notre Dame in 1968 to start the Notre Dame hockey program and remained the head coach of the Fighting Irish for 19 seasons before retiring in 1987. During his time behind the bench, Notre Dame produced six AllAmericans and finished second in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA) twice

(1972-73 and 1976-77). He was selected the WCHA coach of the year following the 1972-73 season. The popular head coach retired following the 1986-87 season with a career record of 307-320-31. Following his coaching career, Smith became the director of the Loftus Sports Center until his death in 2012. In 2002, he was honored for his outstanding accomplishments in hockey at the Hobey Baker Award Banquet as a “Legend of Hockey” honoree. Smith’s name always will be synonymous with Irish hockey as his name now graces the Coaches Award that goes annually to the unsung hero of the Notre Dame hockey program, the player who is unheralded, has overcome adversity and shows loyalty and commitment to his teammates, Notre Dame hockey and the University of Notre Dame. 2014-15 2013-14 2012-13 2011-12 2010-11 2009-10 2008-09 2007-08 2006-07 2005-06 2004-05 2003-04 2002-03 2001-02 2000-01 1999-00 1998-99

Before that former defenseman Ian Cole (St. Louis, 18th overall in 2007) and former forward Kyle Palmieri (Anaheim, 26th in 2009) also were first round selections while Jarred Tinordi was a first round choice (Montreal in 2010), enrolled at the University but then opted for professional hockey.

Castner, who also was a three-year pitcher on the Notre Dame baseball team, served as captain and playercoach for the hockey program in 1919-20 and ’20-’21 before coaching the team in 1921-22 and 1922-23.

Tom Lieb served as one of the early leaders of the Notre Dame hockey team, as a player in the early 1920s and a coach from 1923-26. Lieb also was a right tackle on the Notre Dame football team, earning varsity letters for the 1921 and 1922 seasons.

Jim Crowley (top photo, second from right) gained fame as the halfback in the Four Horseman backfield of the 1924 Notre Dame football team, but Crowley (bottom photo, seated third from right) also was a stellar goaltender for the Notre Dame hockey squads of that era.

All-Time Hat Tricks

154

Senior right wing Bryan Rust picked up his first career hat trick on Jan. 10, 2014, when he scored three times versus Alabama Huntsville. He also added an assist for a career-best, four-point night versus the Chargers.

Mark Van Guilder picked up two hat tricks during his Notre Dame career. The 2008 graduate had one against top-ranked Boston College during ‘06-’07 and one versus Bowling Green the previous year - 2005-06.

Brian Urick is the last Notre Dame player to score four goals in a game. He did it on Oct. 19, 1995, in a 7-4 win over Alaska in Fairbanks.
