Rochester Institute of Technology has announced that women’s assistant coach Matt Woodard has been elevated to full-time status, effective immediately. <\/p>\n
Woodard will assist in all aspects of the program, including recruiting and on-ice preparation.<\/p>\n
Woodard served as a part-time assistant coach in his first season with the Tigers in 2013-14. He replaces Shivaun Siegl, who resigned in May to pursue other opportunities outside of hockey.<\/p>\n
“With Shivaun’s departure, promoting Matt was an easy decision,” said RIT head coach Scott McDonald in a statement. “Matt did a great job with the team last season and really excelled in recruiting and on-ice work with our players. Matt’s work ethic and passion for the game makes him a young, up and coming coach with a bright future. I am excited to keep him here at RIT and have him continue to develop our players and his coaching style.<\/p>\n
“I would like to thank Shivaun Siegl for her dedication and hard work. She truly helped us develop as a Division I team in our transition from the Division III level and will certainly be missed here on campus. We wish her all the best in her future endeavors.”<\/p>\n
Before arriving at RIT, Woodard spent two seasons at Manhattanville, serving as the assistant women’s coach and recruiting coordinator, and also played four seasons at American International as a defenseman.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
