Did Melanie Guillemette and Josh Liegl leave?

[bbtt]

Did Josh Liegl leave?

Ohio State has hired Josh Liegl to fill the asst. coach position. Apparently he has coached at RPI, Colgate, and Findlay. Anyone out there know anything about him?

This states he went to Ohio State.

[Ralph Baer]

Thanks for the news about Josh Liegl.


I forgot that RPI in thread titles becomes "Rpi" if I am not careful. :mad:

The new roster is up. http://www.rpiathletics.com/roster.aspx?path=whock&

Did Melanie Guillemette leave?

That would be a huge loss, but it would explain why the coaching staff recruited so many defensemen.

[OneTimer]

do they have a replacement for josh liegl yet?

[Ralph Baer]

That would be a huge loss, but it would explain why the coaching staff recruited so many defensemen. Yes. That means that they must have known that she was leaving.

do they have a replacement for josh liegl yet? Haven't heard anything.

[Ralph Baer]

New head shots have been added to the player and coaches pages linked from the roster http://www.rpiathletics.com/roster.aspx?path=whock&. This includes the Freshmen.

[Ralph Baer]

Melissa Boik and Nicole McDonald were named co-captains and Laura Gersten was named an assistant captain. http://www.rpiathletics.com/news/2008/9/17/WICE_0917082436.aspx?path=whock

Wow...three for three! When the decision was made a few months ago to defer the choice of captains for this year and another RPI fan asked me who I would choose, I came up with the same three names. This is always a tough choice because there are always several players capable of providing the right leadership, but I do like these choices.

[Ralph Baer]

Siegl replaces Liegl.

New assistant coach, Shivaun Siegl, formerly at RIT. She played goalie for Mercyhurst and UVM. http://www.rpiathletics.com/news/2008/9/23/WICE_0923081518.aspx?path=whock

[Livinhocky]

I can just see the conversation regarding the asst. coach search now:

Burke: We need to add another asst coach.
Bredin: Ok, so what are we looking for?
Burke: I really liked Josh, so I would like to find someone who's name reminds me of him!
Bredin: How on God's green earth are you going to find anyone, much less a qualified candidate, who's name rhymes with "Liegl"???????
Burke: Well............

It looks like the game is not on B2. :(

[leeb]

RPI won tonight 7-2 and the score is pretty indicative of the play. SHots were 45-17 in favor of RPI. RPI seems to have brought in a solid recruiting class.

It looks like the game is not on B2. :(

Is it unusual for B2 to cancel broadcasting the games with less than 30 minutes to go? I had the laptop connected to the tv to watch 30 minutes before with the B2 website up. It showed the game as being broadcast at that point. When I went to refresh the screen with 15 minutes left, there was nothing on the schedule. :eek:

The wife and I had to scramble to find out if we had the right stuff to listen to WRPI! I didn't since my machine is linux based but the wife's desktop did.

Hopefully, tomorrow's game will be on!

That's more goals than any game last season.

Today's game is not on B2's schedule anymore. :mad:

That's after they got me to purchase the all-sports package. :mad:

Same here. Purchased 23 games but looks like only 21 will be broadcast. Don't know what they'll do for the 2 that aren't being "supplied."
