“Frank has done an incredible job building the Air Force hockey program,” Air Force director of athletics Jim Knowlton said in a statement. “I’m excited about the future of our program with Frank and his staff’s leadership. They have set a high standard of excellence here at the Academy.”

“I am grateful to the Academy for allowing me to continue leading their hockey program,” Serratore added. “I am very proud of all we have accomplished during my tenure. I am blessed to have been part of a great past and I am looking forward to an even greater future.”
