New Hampshire’s Parkhurst wins Concannon Hockey East Media Award

Hockey East announced on Tuesday that New Hampshire broadcaster Dan Parkhurst has been named the 22nd recipient of the Joe Concannon Hockey East Media Award.

Parkhurst, who will work UNH games on television and radio during the 2013-14 season, will also call select games for the NBC Sports Network this season.

In addition to his broadcasting work, the 2013-14 season will mark Parkhurst’s 17th year as Hockey East’s website designer and coordinator. He also assists in the league’s public relations department with
multimedia solutions, as well as with day-to-day online duties and game-night updates.

During the 1997-98 season, Parkhurst called the Hockey East Online Game of the Week, one of the first online broadcasts of college hockey on the Internet. He has also covered Boston College and Merrimack.

USCHO.com’s Jim Connelly won the Concannon Award in 2012.
