WINDSOR, Ont.- Gord Grace, Director of Athletics and Recreational Services at the University of Windsor is pleased to announce the hiring of Pete Belliveau as the new Head Coach of the Windsor Lancers Men’s Hockey program. The appointment is effective immediately.

During that time, he led Lakehead to an impressive OUA regular season record of 91-44-11 and a 26-12 playoff record.
