The Penn State men’s team has announced the hiring of Andrew Magera as volunteer assistant coach for the 2018-19 season.<\/p>\n
Magera, who\u2019s currently finishing his degree in Business Administration at South Dakota State University, has served as a skill development coach for Legend Hockey since 2012. The Sioux Falls, S.D., transplant has also served as a main camp evaluator for the USHL’s Sioux Falls Stampede and Fargo Force over the past two seasons.<\/p>\n
He has also served as either a head coach or assistant coach at various levels of youth hockey in the Sioux Falls Jr. Stampede AAA organization since 2015.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am both thrilled and honored to be a part of the prestigious hockey program here at Penn State University,\u201d said Magera in a statement. \u201cI want to thank Guy Gadowsky and the rest of the hockey staff for this opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n
Last season, Magera also served as an assistant coach for the WSHL’s Idaho IceCats, helping the team secure the Northwest Division championship with a 44-3-3 overall record.<\/p>\n
\u201cAndrew comes highly recommended as a hungry, up-and-coming coach,” added Gadowsky. “His work ethic and the way he handles himself on and off the ice will be a great fit for our program.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
