Providence College men’s hockey coach Tim Army has relinquished his coaching duties, the school announced today. Army, a 1985 Providence graduate, posted a 66-116-28 mark in six seasons at the helm. The Friars have missed the Hockey East playoffs each of the last three seasons.
“I want to thank Tim for his dedication and service to the men’s ice hockey program over the last six seasons,” athletics director Bob Driscoll said in a statement. “Tim has represented the college with dignity and class. We wish him all the best with his future endeavors.”
“After discussions with Bob Driscoll we decided a change in leadership may allow the program to move forward,” Army said. “I am proud of a number of things we have been able to accomplish during the past six years and a new perspective may result in the final piece of more victories for the program.”
The school will begin its search for Army’s successor immediately.
