Media Report on New UMaine Women’s Ice Hockey Head Coach
The Bangor Daily News, WABI (Channel 5) and WVII (Channel 7) reported Richard Reichenbach has been named the University of Maine women’s ice hockey head coach for the 2014–15 season. Reichenbach’s wife Sara, who co-coached with him last year, will be an assistant coach for the coming season. Reichenbach recently completed his fourth season with the Black Bears, serving as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator the previous three years before co-coaching last season. Reichenbach said he plans to continue to reinforce “a culture of hard work and positive attitudes.” Karlton Creech, UMaine’s athletic director, said after talking with several people he learned the Reichenbachs are “really good people, and you can’t undervalue that in an organization.”
