Blaise MacDonaldHead Coach • 10th Season • 145-153-38

Blaise MacDonald enters his 10th year at the helm of the UMass Lowell Hockey team. He has compiled a 145-153-38 record in his nine years of work behind the bench for the River Hawks. No stranger to the UML hockey program, the native of nearby Billerica, Mass., was an assistant to River Hawk head coach Billy Riley, Jr., from 1988-1990, before being named the fifth head coach in the program’s

43-year history on April 6, 2001. “I think there is a terrific commitment from the Univer-sity,” MacDonald said. “The culture of the workplace from the Chancellor to the athletic department is outstanding and strives for high performance. “The obvious connection with me and UMass Lowell is the fact that I grew up in Billerica. I grew up a fan of the Lowell Chiefs and players like Craig MacTavish and Dean Jenkins. This is a dream situation for me in that perspective, especially consider-ing the exciting growth of the campus.” In his first season, MacDonald guided the River Hawks to a 22-13-3 record – their best performance since 1995-96. In Hockey East play, UML finished 12-9-3, good for fourth place and home ice in the Hockey East tournament. MacDonald put a system in place which had the River Hawks among the top four in Hockey East in several categories: team defense overall (first) and in HE (fourth); penalty kills overall (first) and in HE (third); overall team offense(fourth); and power play in HE (fourth). In 2004-05, MacDonald guided the River Hawks to a 20-12-4 record, their best since his first year at the helm. UML was ranked as high as seventh in the national polls, had one of the best power-play units in the nation and enjoyed a 14-game unbeaten streak from November 23 to January 28. The team also placed a record 17 players on Hockey East’s All-Academic team and produced Hockey East’s Superskills Rookie of the Year, Peter Vetri. In 2007-08 the River Hawks posted a 16-17-4 record, 10-13-4 in league play, and returned the the Hockey East play-offs after a one-year absence. The 16 wins doubled the team’s output from 2006-07, and improved in almost every statistical category — goals scored, goals against, power play percentage, penalty kill and save percentage. Sophomore left wing Kory Falite led Hockey East in goals (league games) and was named to a Hockey East Second Team All-Star. Freshman defenseman Maury Edwards was named to the Hockey East All-Rookie team, the third player under MacDonald’s watch to do so. As a team the River Hawks received the Charlie Holt Sportsmanship Award as the least penalized team in Hockey East. The River Hawks continued their development in 2008-09, winning 20 games for the third time under MacDonald, and reached the Hockey East championship game for the second time in program history. The River Hawks finished the 2008-09 season as one of the hottest teams in the country, going 12-5-2 over their last 19 games. In 2009-10, MacDonald followed with the program’s first back-to-back winning seasons since 2002. UMass Lowell finished with a 19-16-4 overall record, tied for third place in the Hockey

East conference and were ranked as high as third in the national polls. The season marked the River Hawks’ highest finish in Hockey East since 1995-96. MacDonald came to Lowell after a five-year head coach-ing stint at Niagara University where he founded the ice hockey program and brought the Purple Eagles to the NCAA Tournament quarterfinal in only four seasons. Prior to Niagara, MacDonald served as an assistant coach and later recruiting coordinator and associate head coach at Boston University (1990-96) as well as an assistant at Princ-eton (1987-88) and Dartmouth (1985-87). A 1985 graduate of Rochester Institute of Technology, MacDonald compiled an all-time record of 91-58-17 in five sea-sons at Niagara (.548), highlighted by a 30-8-4 overall clip and a 15-0-2 finish in College Hockey America in 1999-00. During the run, the Purple Eagles posted victories over Boston University, Colorado College and Rensselaer. In the first round of the 2000 NCAA Tournament, Niagara stunned 1998- 99 NCAA finalist New Hampshire (4-1) before falling to eventual national champion North Dakota (4-1). MacDonald was voted runner-up for the Spencer Penrose Award as National Coach of the Year. MacDonald started the Niagara program in 1996 with all freshmen and guided the Purple Eagles to a 16-9-2 record as a member of the Division III ECAC West. He was voted the ECAC West Co-Coach of the Year by his peers. He then led NU to a 14-10-3 clip in its second and final season in the ECAC West in 1997-98, which included winning the Conference tournament and regular season championships. Before joining College Hockey America, NU spent the 1998-99 season as a Division I independent and posted a 17-12-3 record. The Purple Eagles opened the year with a stunning two-game effort at defending national champion Michigan, losing in overtime in the first meeting (6-5), and winning 2-1 a day later. NU also enjoyed victories over Ohio State, Merrimack and Rensselaer, along with wins over St. Lawrence and Colgate in the Syracuse Invitational Tournament. In 2000-01, The Purple Eagles posted a 14-19-5 mark

36 2009-10 Media Guide

Coaching Staff

UMass Lowell finished with back-to-back winning seasons for the first time since 2002, what does that tell you about where the program is headed? We’ve gone through some challenging times where there has been some doubt

about the future of our program and clearly that’s not the optimal way to recruit. Since Chancellor Meehan arrived on campus, our team and our success have mirrored his commitment to the program. We’re very privilege to be in that position and be shown that commitment and we’re grateful for the players that went through that. Last year’s senior class went through a lot of tough times, but they finished really strong. They laid a strong foundation of success that future team’s will try and live up to. I can tell you that our recruiting has been at its highest level since I’ve arrived. We’ve been involved with very talented players that we would not have been involved with before. When you come to a game there are huge crowds here, the energy level is great, we’ve been highly ranked nationally, done well in Hockey East and we’ve had success in TV games. Then you look at how well UMass Lowell is perceived academically and the University becomes a very attractive option. This is a brand new beginning for this whole community and we’re just a part of that.

The River Hawks transition from a veteran squad to a young team, what changes in your coaching style? Patience, patience, patience. I think confidence is such a critical part to an athlete’s and team’s success. It’s easy for a coach to strip that confidence without even knowing it. We need to have an upbeat and enthusiastic environment with very clear goals, in both the short term and long term. The challenge is to live within the world of idealism and realism and push that limit the best you can while still being realistic. There are no feel good games in this league—if you lose two games in a row, you may think you’ll never win again—so we have to guard from pessimism. We’ll try to keep an upbeat attitude this season.

How do the changes to the Tsongas Center help the program? It just speaks to the commitment to the hockey program and to providing Division I athletics to this community. Now when you come into the Tsongas, the engagement of the student body, the fans, the kids in the stands, the alumni—it will be at an astronomically new level. I think when people come to the game they’re going to be wowed when they step into the Tsongas Center.

Hockey East has produced three consecutive National Champions, how does that affect a growing program? Playing in Hockey East is great because you always want to play against the best. It gives your players a level of experience they can’t gain anywhere else and we think if the tide rises, so will our boat. Last year was a good example. We played Boston College three times and they only scored four goals in three games—whereas they blew out almost everyone else en route to a National Championship. We beat them twice and that gives us tangible experiences that we can build on.

What will be the River Hawks’ greatest strength in 2010-11? As I look at our team now, our forwards look really good. We’ll be able to roll out 12 forwards in a game that will be able to compete and will allow us to have flexibility in our line match-ups. Also, having a young team, we will thrive on the enthusiasm they bring and their innocence. For younger players, they don’t get anxious because they don’t know any better—they’ll just go out and play.

What impact will new assistant coach Darryl Green have on the program? I’m really happy for Darryl, I had the privilege of coaching him for his last two years at UMass Lowell. He had a lot of success as a student-athlete here, won a lot of big games and he has a lot of patience. Darryl has a great outlook and a tremendous passion for the game. He is the ultimate ‘rink rat’ and really loves hockey at all levels. Players see that and gravitate towards him. Additionally, Dar-ryl comes from a high school teaching background. He understands the steps and pragmatic plan to teaching young people.

Jerry FortonAssistant Coach

Jerry Forton enters his second season with the River Hawks as an assistant coach after spending 13 years as a former assistant and associate head coach at Niagara University. While serving as the primary recruiter, Forton will work with the development of the defensemen.

Forton served as an assistant with Head Coach Blaise MacDonald at Niagara from 1996-2001. “Jerry is very familiar with my coaching philosophy and style,” said MacDonald, who will enter his ninth season this fall. “He compliments my strengths and weaknesses. “Most importantly, Jerry brings a tremendous wealth of experience, having coached at the Division I level for 14 years,” MacDonald added. “He has coached in three NCAA Tournaments. He has coached and recruited players who have been Hobey Baker candidates and has done a tremendous job without some of the resources we provide student-athletes here at UMass Lowell.” A former soccer/hockey standout at the University of Buffalo, Forton began his hockey coaching career with the inception of the program at Niagara in 1996 where he remained until last season. During his tenure, he helped guide the Purple Eagles to NCAA Tournament bids and College Hockey America (CHA) Tournament titles in 2000, 2004 and 2008, as well as CHA regular season championships in 1999-2000, 2005-06 and 2006-07.
