MEN'S HOCKEY COACH NAMED BY ROYAL MILITARY COLLEGE
The Royal Military College of Canada introduced Adam Shell as the head coach of its men's hockey team on Monday.
A native of the Toronto area, Shell has served as assistant coach with McGill University the past two seasons. Shell also played four years of university hockey at McGill from 1999-2003.
\"We are very pleased to welcome Adam to RMC\", said Darren Cates, Director of Athletics. \"He clearly has a passion for hockey, and he brings tremendous energy and enthusiasm to our hockey program.\"
The Paladins are coming off a season where they missed the OUA playoffs for the first time in the previous seven years. Shell takes over for Jim Hulton, who was named to an assistant coaching position in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) following last season.
"I am looking forward to the opportunity of being a part of the rich and storied tradition of the Royal Military College and its' hockey program", said Shell, the 19th head coach in the history of RMC hockey. "I'm very excited at the prospect of developing student athletes within this unique educational environment, as well as continuing to develop the current hockey program at RMC".
Adam officially begins at RMC on July 3rd. The RMC men's hockey team opens their season at home on October 5th against the Western Mustangs.
