Cady coached at Miami from 1976 to 1985 and was responsible for taking the program from club hockey to the Division I level. Cady currently serves as Associate Athletic Director at Miami.<\/p>\n<p>The John MacInnes Award is presented to the head coach who has had exceptional success with athletes on and off the ice. This year&#8217;s winner is Ed Saugestad from Augsburg. Saugestad compiled 503 career wins in his 37 seasons (1958-1996) behind the bench at Augsberg, second only to Don Roberts of Gustavus Adolphus among Division III coaches. He was a three-time NAIA Coach of the Year and his teams were three times NAIA National Champion.<\/p>\n<p>Kevin Houle of Plattsburgh is the recipient of the Terry Flanagan Award, named for the former Bowling Green assistant coach to recognize a career body of work from an assistant coach. Houle has spent the last 13 years with Plattsburgh despite opportunities to pursue other head coaching positions. Over his tenure, the team has compiled a 304-87-27 record and captured two NCAA National Championships. <\/p>\n<p>In addition, Bette Blair of USA Hockey was given the Joe Burke Award for contribution to women&#8217;s ice hockey; Gary Dineen of the Springfield &#8216;Pics\/New England Coyotes was named recipient of the John &#8220;Snooks&#8221; Kelley Founders Award for contributions to the growth of U.S. hockey; and Lou Cotroneo of St. Paul (Minn.)
