After five months and a pair of interim head coaches, Minnesota-Crookston has named Gary Warren its permanent replacement for Mark Huglen, though he won’t begin his role until this season is over.<\/p>\n
Warren has been the head coach at Minot State University-Bottineau (N.D.) for the last 16 years, where he won three junior college championships (1986, 1991, 1998). The Bottineau native is a 1977 graduate of Minnesota-Duluth.<\/p>\n
Prior to arriving at MSU-Bottineau, Warren was assistant coach at Air Force, and was the Director of the USAFA Youth Summer Hockey Camp from 1980-83.<\/p>\n
“Gary has been a very successful coach,” said Minn.-Crookston athletic director Lon Boike. “He is experienced, is a proven recruiter, and is exceptionally knowledgeable in the game of hockey. We are happy to have him.”<\/p>\n
The Golden Eagles are currently being led by Mike Swentik on an interim basis. They are 7-2-1 overall (5-0-1 MCHA). Warren will take over as soon as this season is completed.<\/p>\n
