Middlebury has announced the hiring of Jack Fitzgerald as the assistant men’s hockey coach.<\/p>\n

Fitzgerald joins the program after spending the previous four seasons as an assistant men’s hockey coach at Amherst.<\/p>\n

“I am extremely excited for the opportunity to be joining such a storied hockey program,” said Fitzgerald in a news release. “Middlebury is an amazing institution with great athletic programs and I am excited to leave my mark.”<\/p>\n

“I’m very excited to welcome Jack to the Middlebury community and our program,” added Middlebury interim head coach Jack Ceglarski. “He will bring energy, passion and experience to our team that I know our players will enjoy having around. He has great knowledge about being a student-athlete in the NESCAC from his coaching and playing experiences at Amherst. I’m excited to have him as a part of our program.”<\/p>\n

Prior to his time at Amherst, Fitzgerald worked for the Elite Hockey Program where he was both a coach and the assistant director of operations and marketing.<\/p>\n

Fitzgerald was also a four-year letter winner on the Amherst men’s hockey team from 2015 to 2019. During his senior season, Fitzgerald was named captain of the Mammoths and helped lead the team to a NESCAC tournament final appearance while also earning NESCAC all-sportsmanship team honors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
