Vermont has hired former Ohio State and Yale assistant Jess Koizumi as its associate head coach.<\/p>\n
Koizumi, a two-year captain at Minnesota Duluth in a collegiate playing career that stretched from 2003 to 2007, was the associate head coach at Ohio State last season.<\/p>\n
“I am really excited to welcome Jess to UVM and to our women’s hockey family,” Vermont coach Jim Plumer said in a news release. “She brings extensive coaching experience and as a former national team player, she is a rising star in the coaching world. Jess is particularly passionate about helping student-athletes reach their potential and I know that she is going to be a great fit for our players, our staff, and the UVM community.”<\/p>\n
In the 2016-17 season, Koizumi was the Buckeyes’ recruiting coordinator and coached the team’s defensemen.<\/p>\n
Before the year at Ohio State, she spent six seasons on the staff at Yale.<\/p>\n
