Skidmore has named current Williams women’s head coach Neil Sinclair as its head men’s ice hockey coach. Sinclair is a 1993 graduate of Middlebury, where as senior he was a first-team All-American and ECAC first-team selection. <\/p>\n

At Williams for the past two seasons, he compiled a 29-20-2 record. Prior to Williams, Sinclair spent the 2002-03 season as the Middlebury men’s interim head coach. He led the Panthers to a 22-5-2 record, including a regular-season NESCAC championship and a run to the NCAA Division III semifinals. <\/p>\n

“Skidmore is getting one of the nation’s best young coaches,” said Gail Cummings-Danson, Skidmore athletics director. “Neil is fortunate to have been mentored by some of the best hockey minds in the game. We’re excited about the program’s future under his leadership.” <\/p>\n

Sinclair began his coaching career in 1994 as the head coach of the Middlebury Union High School boys team, winning the 1996 Vermont State Championship. He was the 1998-99 Vermont High School Division II Co-Coach of the Year. He returned to alma mater, Middlebury, as assistant men’s coach from 1999 to 2002 and then spent a year as interim head coach, while long-time Panther head coach Bill Beaney was on sabbatical. <\/p>\n

“I’m excited to be a part of the Skidmore community,” Sinclair said. “I look forward to building on past success of the program and achieving academic and athletic excellence.” <\/p>\n

Skidmore finished the 2004-05 season with a 6-19-1 overall record and was 5-13-1 in Eastern College Athletic Conference East play. The Thoroughbreds won ECAC South regular season titles in 1994, 1995, 1996, and 1997 before moving to the stronger ECAC East for the 1998-99 season. The team begins practice Nov. 1 and will open the season at home on Nov. 18 against New England College.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
