I'm not sure if Kyle Rossi planned this, but he happened to have Robert Morris Colonials NCAA Div. I head coach Derek Schooley featured this week in his series of unofficial potential coaches of the future Penn State varsity hockey program.
What a coincidence! The Icers this weekend just happen to be in Pittsburgh playing the Dave Fryer-led ACHA Colonials, while Schooley's squad plays UConn on the main ice surface at the Island Sports Complex.
Coach Schooley started the RMU varsity program from scratch seven years ago. Today, the team and its fans are enjoying success in the Atlantic Hockey Conference.
Shortly after the Colonials knocked off the Huskies 3-1 before a large and enthusiastic crowd, Schooley joined me during the first intermission of the Icers' 9-4 win over RMU.

You're not being fair to yourself lumping what I did in with that fantastic interview!
ReplyDeleteBut yeah, to answer the question, I picked this week to run the Schooley thing on purpose. Too perfect to not do it that way. Mark Johnson (the next one) will fall during WUG - also not an accident!
