Quinnipiac University Athletics Celebrates Decade of Division I s the 2010 calendar year comes to a close, Quinnipiac will celebrate its first full decade (2000 - 2010) at the Division I level. The Bobcats have shown great success in a small period of time, immediately announcing themselves on the Division I landscape with numerous NCAA Tournament appearances to the opening of the TD Bank Sports Center. Although Quinnipiac began Division I competition at the start of the 1998–99 season, the process began two years earlier when Quinnipiac President John L. Lahey sent a letter to the NCAA announcing Quinnipiac’s intention to enter the country’s highest athletic division. Jack McDonald, director of athletics and recreation, said it was necessary to make the switch to Division I because of potential student-athletes and other applicants interested in Quinnipiac. “Prospective students who were interested in Quinnipiac were also applying to Fairfield, Hartford, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine,” McDonald says. “We found the general interest of Quinnipiac had risen from a Division II/III school to a Division I school.” Since Quinnipiac’s official entrance into Division I on Sept. 2, 1998, the athletic department has experienced tremendous growth. The coaching staffs have made the transition from part-time to full-time, and the Athletic and Recreation Center has doubled in size. In 12 years the number of full-time staff members increased from about 25 to 65. Perhaps the most visible change was the opening of the 185,000-square-foot TD Bank Sports Center in January 2007, home of the men’s and women’s basketball and ice hockey teams. Despite the added emphasis on athletics, Quinnipiac continues to hold a reputation for high academic standards. Numerous teams and individual student-athletes have been nationally recognized for their work in the classroom over the last decade. “Every student-athlete goes to college for two reasons — to get a degree and make the NCAA tournament,” McDonald said. “Our graduation rate and GPA is higher than the rest of the student body. I’m very proud of that. Most student-athletes will never play professionally, but they all need their degree.”

Over the course of the 2010–11 season, Quinnipiac will recognized special moments and players from the Bobcats’ first full decade at the Division I level. Because there were so many deserving moments in the last decade, it was extremely difficult to narrow down the list. For example, was announcing the “Bobcats” as the University’s new nickname on Aug. 27, 2002 one of the top moments, or the baseball team advancing to the 2005 NCAA Regionals against Texas? Maybe it was the men’s and women’s Ice Hockey teams’ invitation to ECAC Hockey on July 9, 2004, or was it the women’s soccer team winning Quinnipiac’s first-ever game at the Division I level in September 1998? The 200910 season alone could have produced three or top 10 moments with women’s cross country winning a NEC-record sixth straight championship, men’s basketball hosting the largest crowd in TD Bank Sports Center histor for the NEC Tournament Championship, men’s ice hockey ranked fourth nationally or women’s ice hockey hosting an ECAC Hockey Tournament series. Although the 2008–09 season marked the University’s first 10 years competing at the Division I level, there is even higher potential for the current decade. With all the successes the teams accomplished in the past, there is room for greater achievements in the future including: increasing the teams’ graduation rate and GPA, increasing the number of teams that advance to NCAA tournaments, and winning NCAA tournament games. The importance of strong academics and athletics advancing together is essential for greater success at the Division I level. “We’ve become such a successful program with a beautiful campus, great facilities, student-athletes who excel academically and coaches who do a great job with the total well-being of the studentathlete,” McDonald says. “It’s been a tremendous 10 years.”

The Quinnipiac Bobcats Sports Network (QBSN) is the official broadcast team behind Quinnipiac women’s ice hockey, in addition to broadcasting all 21 Quinnipiac varsity sports. QBSN is fully operated by Quinnipiac undergraduate students from the school of communications. “We are thrilled with the professional broadcasts of over 100 games already this year by QBSN,” Director of Athletics Jack McDonald said. “What is even more satisfying is that the broadcasters and producers are Quinnipiac school of communication students. They all do an exceptional job providing play-by-play and color commentary for all of our games while providing audio for our video streams.” Launched in 2010, QBSN was the brain child of students Corey Hersch and Alex Birsch as a sports-driven webstreaming entity that while providing live webstreaming for Quinnipiac’s fans, also provides valuable experience for the many talented sports broadcast students at Quinnipiac. Since its inception, QBSN has streamed all Quinnipiac home sporting events for men’s and women’s soccer, field hockey, women’s volleyball as well as the Quinnipiac Men’s and Women’s Cross Country Invitational. In addition to broadcasting all Quinnipiac women’s ice hockey home games, QBSN also broadcasts a supplemental feed for men’s ice hockey and men’s and women’s basketball. This fall, QBSN will also broadcast all home baseball, softball and men’s and women’s lacrosse games.
QBSN co-chairs Corey Hersch and Alex Birsh held the first-ever live student broadcast from the TD Bank Sports Center on Friday, Oct. 8, 2010. The two interviewed several student-athletes, including women’s ice hockey captain Jordan Elkins and Victoria Vigilanti, as well as senior associate athletic director Bill Mecca prior to the men’s ice hockey team’s season-opener against nationally-rannked Ohio State University.

ECAC Hockey TRADITION: ECAC Hockey, “where hockey’s not just another tradition.” ECAC Hockey, as it exists today, was founded in 1961. The evolution began with an ‘informal’ conference, which witnessed prosperous years in the late ’60s and early ’70s and over the years progressed into one of the best college hockey leagues in the country. ECAC Hockey is one of six conferences that compete in NCAA Division I Men’s and Women’s Hockey Championships. The conference is comprised of 12 institutions filled with tradition, legendary players, coaches, and administrators who have paved the way for recognizing and celebrating yearly accomplishments on and off the ice. With a noteworthy past, collegiate ice hockey has been a mainstay with member institutions for nearly a century. On Jan. 19, 1898, less than two years after the first-ever college hockey game, Brown defeated Harvard in Boston, Mass., in the first college hockey game between the two schools still sponsoring the sport. ECAC Hockey has evolved into pure hockey. The rise to prominence has not been limited to the playing surface, as the league’s alumni has cemented itself with such identifiable labels as; integrity, sportsmanship, leadership, scholarship, pursuit of excellence and commitment.
INTEGRITY:
Prestigious play, fairness and respect have been values associated with former with former ECAC Hockey players that have been carried onto the next level. Today, many former players are enjoying careers and are respected on the next level in the National Hockey League (NHL). Former League standouts include Anaheim Ducks forwards George Parros (Princeton), and Todd Marchant (Clarkson); Atlanta Thrashers defenseman Grant Lewis (Dartmouth) and forwards Rich Peverley (St. Lawrence) and Todd White (Clarkson); Boston Bruins forward Byron Bitz (Cornell); Buffalo Sabres forward Dominic Moore (Harvard); Calgary Flames forward Craig Conroy (Clarkson); Carolina Hurricanes forward Erik Cole (Clarkson); Colorado Avalanche forwards T.J. Galiardi (Dartmouth) and David Jones (Dartmouth); Columbus Blue Jackets forward Craig MacDonald (Harvard); Dallas Stars forward Raymond Sawada; Florida Panthers defenseman Tanner Gladd (Dartmouth); Los Angeles Kings forwards Matt Moulson (Cornell), Kevin Westgarth (Princeton) and John Zeiler (St. Lawrence); Minnesota Wild forward Dominic Moore (Harvard); Montreal Canadiens forward Chris Higgins (Yale) and defenseman Ryan O’Byrne (Cornell); N.Y. Islanders defenseman Joe Callahan (Yale), goaltender Yann Dannis (Brown) and forward Mike Iggulden (Cornell); Ottawa Senators forward Jesse Winchester (Colgate); Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Randy Jones (Clarkson) and forward Darroll Powe (Princeton); Pittsburgh Penguins forward Craig Adams (Harvard) and defenseman Ben Lovejoy (Dartmouth); St. Louis Blues forward Andy McDonald (Colgate); San Jose Sharks forwards Tom Cavanagh (Harvard) and Ryan Vesce (Cornell) and defensemen Kent Huskins (Clarkson) and Doug Murray (Cornell); Tampa Bay Lightning defensemen Corey Murphy (Colgate) and Noah Welch (Harvard); Toronto Maple Leafs forwards Jeff Hamilton (Yale) and Lee Stempniak (Dartmouth); Vancouver Canucks defenseman Willie Mitchell (Clarkson); and Washington Capitals forward Chris Clark (Clarkson) and defenseman Brian Pothier (Rensselaer).
SPORTSMANSHIP:
Respect, hard work, and intense competition help mold some of the players into model student-athletes and citizens. Cornell head coach Mike Schafer, several current players and several alumni traveled in early June to the Dominican Republic to do some
6
construction projects for a school. Among items the group finished were enclosing the water generator for drinking water and shielding it from the elements of hurricane season, extending a fence around the school and laying the foundation for a medical clinic; the entire league participated in a “Pink at the Rink” program wearing and selling special jerseys with proceeds benefiting the American Cancer Society and Hockey Coaches Care program; Harvard annually holds a youth hockey clinic for AllstonBrighton Youth Hockey, and several players run the non-profit Crimson City Hockey Clinic; Quinnipiac raised over $30,000 at Rand Pecknold’s Blades & Skates event to benefit St. Baldrick’s Children’s Cancer Research.
LEADERSHIP:
Delivering hockey and connecting strong values beyond the playing surface has produced its share of administrators in the National Hockey League (NHL). Peter Chiarelli (Harvard) is the general manager of the Boston Bruins; Joe Nieuwendyk (Cornell) is the general manager for the Dallas Stars, while Dave Taylor (Clarkson) serves as its director of player personnel; Mike Barnett (St. Lawrence) is currently serving as an adviser and scout for the New York Rangers, while fellow St. Lawrence University grad Ray Shero is the general manager of the Pittsburgh Penguins; Brent Flahr (Princeton) serves as the assistant general manager for the Minnesota Wild; Colgate alum David Conte is the executive vice president, hockey operations, for the N.J. Devils; St. Lawrence graduate Bill Torrey serves as the Florida Panthers’ alternate governor, while fellow Saints’ graduate Jacques Martin is the current head coach of the Montreal Canadiens and Randy Sexton is the assistant general manager for the Florida Panthers. In addition, NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman is a Cornell graduate and NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daley is a graduate of Dartmouth.
SCHOLARSHIP:
It is been a primary goal of ECAC Hockey institutions to strive for academic achievement. It is instilled that all student-athletes not only excel in sports, but build character. Each year all teams boast several players on the all ECAC Hockey All-Academic Team. Few, if any, conferences have been able to produce a list of influential and successful alumni like ECAC Hockey. Scott Hanley (Brown) currently serves as director of sports and competition for ESPN X Games, while John McLennan (Clarkson) spent his career as CEO of Bell Canada. Some former ECAC Hockey players became inventors, like Colgate’s Ed Werner and John Haney, who invented the board game Trivial Pursuit.
PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE:
Since 2003 the Times Union Center has played host to the ECAC Hockey Championship. This exciting weekend has developed into more than a hockey tournament with packed houses and a special FanFest celebration. Over the last several years the league has witnessed an influx of players into the NHL. Over a dozen players having ECAC Hockey ties have been selected in the last two NHL Entry Drafts.
COMMITMENT:
The future of ECAC Hockey continues to develop, as it is consistently labeled as one of the premier conferences from top to bottom. Each year all 12 institutions strive to set new standards of excellence. The league continues to offers a variety to their fans and alumni including a television broadcasts of several games, including tournament games, newly designed conference web site with up-to-the-minute scoring updates, and a weekly radio report during the season.

Rick Seeley Head Coach Third Season Elmira ’87
N
ow entering his third season, Rick Seeley returns to the Bobcats’ bench after leading Quinnipiac to one of the historically great seasons in college ice hockey history. Last year, Seeley transformed a team that in his first season won just three games, to an ECAC Hockey powerhouse that improved by 16 games on their way to a program-record 19 wins. Seeley became the third head coach in the history of its women’s ice hockey program on April 8, 2008, and since then the Bobcats have compiled more wins than any previous two-year period in the program’s nine-year history. Described as a driven, hard-working individual, Seeley has instilled those same qualities on everyone of his teams. Since his first days at Manhattanville to his last stop at Clarkson, Seeley has re-built two ice hockey programs into perennial powerhouses. Seeley was honored after the 2009–10 season with the ECAC Hockey and All-New England Coach of the Year awards after leading Quinnipiac to its first-ever ECAC Hockey Tournament. In addition, Quinnipiac received votes in the USCHO.com and USA Today Division I Women’s Ice Hockey weekly polls for six straight weeks, before receiving its first Top-10 ranking in program history on March 1. Seeley’s Bobcats also won their first NCAA Statistical Championship in program history, winning the Scoring Defense category after holding the opposition to 1.38 goals per game. In 2008–09, Quinnipiac allowed 108 goals over 34 games for a 3.18 average, while the Bobcats held opposing teams to just 51 goals in 2009–10. The Bobcats ranked 11th nationally in scoring margin (0.76) after consistently ranking towards the bottom of the charts in years past. Quinnipiac has made great strides since Seeley took the helm in 2008-09 on the ice. Consistently in the bottom of the league in penalty minutes, and showing limited success on the power play or penalty kill, in years prior, the Bobcats have gone from the bottom of both statistical categories, to the fewest penaly minutes per game in the nation. In 2007–08, the year before Seeley arrived, Quinnipiac logged 14.19 PIM’s per game. In 2008–09, Seeley’s Bobcats dropped almost five minutes off their penalty minutes to 9.3 per game and Last season, Quinnipiac averaged 6.5 minutes per game, the fewest in the nation. When the dust settled after last season, Seeley’s Bobcats saw considerable improvements in every facet of their game. The Bobcats improved by 16 games in the win column, while also scoring 35 more goals than the previous season, and allowing 57 fewer over the course of the 34-game season.

Among the players recruited by Seeley, freshmen stand-out Victoria Vigilanti made an immediate impact on the women’s ice hockey program in her first year with the Bobcats. Vigilanti led the nation in goalsagainst average and save percentage on her way to be named the 200910 ECAC Hockey Rookie and Goaltender of the Year in addition to earning ECAC Hockey All-Rookie and First Team honors. Freshman Heather Hughes also received ECAC Hockey All-Rookie honors after leading the Bobcats in goals (14) and points (25) in her first year. Named as the Clarkson head coach in the fall of 2002 Seeley ushered in women’s hockey as a varsity athletic program and, in the Golden Knights’ first five seasons, compiled a 93-67-18 (.573) overall record. The Green and Gold earned ECAC Hockey Playoff berths in their first four seasons in the conference. Seeley first established Clarkson as one of the nation’s premier teams during the 2005–06 campaign. Ranked among the top-10 squads in the country throughout the majority of the regular season, Clarkson skated to a 22-14-1 overall record and finished in a threeway tie for third place in ECAC Hockey with a 12-8 conference mark. The Knights tested eventual ECAC Hockey Tournament Champion Harvard University in the Quarterfinal Round in Cambridge, Mass., falling to the Crimson in double overtime of the deciding third game. The 2006–07 season saw the end of an era come when Seeley’s first recruiting class completed its four-year run at Clarkson. An 18-15-3 mark and another trip to the ECAC Hockey Playoffs capped a remarkable run for the Class of 2007, as Seeley and his senior class nearly upset Frozen Four participant St. Lawrence University in the ECAC Hockey Quarterfinals. That season Seeley coached an ECAC Hockey All-Rookie Team Forward and an All-Rookie Team Defenseman. In 2005–06 Clarkson boasted the ECAC Hockey Goaltender of the Year, who was also a Second-Team All-American, in addition to an All-Rookie Team Defenseman. Clarkson’s roster included several ECAC Hockey honorees, including an All-Rookie Team Forward, an All-Rookie Team Goaltender, a Third-Team All-Conference Forward and a Third Team All-Conference Defenseman. Seeley also saw 21 student-athletes named to ECAC Hockey AllAcademic Teams, and six players recognized as American Women’s College Hockey Alliance (AWCHA) All-Academic Team members. He successfully nominated an eventual two-time finalist in both 2006 and 2007 for The Hockey Humanitarian Award, presented annually to “college hockey’s finest citizen.” Prior to coming to Clarkson Seeley similarly built the Manhattanville College women’s hockey program from the ground up while assembling four outstanding recruiting classes and guiding the program to national prominence at the Division III level. During his three seasons at Manhattanville (1999-2000 through 2001-02) Seeley guided the Valiants to a 54-16-4 overall record. In 2001-02 he led Manhattanville to a 23-2-2 mark—including an undefeated run in conference play —and advanced to the NCAA Division III National Championship
Game. That year Manhattanville was ranked as high as No. 2 in the national polls following its win over then-No. 1 Middlebury College. In the process, the Valiants ended Middlebury’s 136-game, seven-year winning streak versus Division III opponents. Seeley was named ECAC East Coach of the Year and runner-up for National Coach of the Year in 2002. During his career Seeley has crafted an extensive background in the sport at numerous levels, including as an assistant coach at two NCAA Division III men’s ice hockey programs: Hobart College (1987–93) and Rochester Institute of Technology (1997–98). He helped Hobart advance to the program’s first-ever two postseason appearances, and recruited two future All-Americans at RIT while advancing to the 1998 NCAA Division III Quarterfinals. Seeley currently resides in Middletown, Conn. with his wife Chapel and his son, Bodin. >> The Rick Seeley File • Third head coach in history of Quinnipiac women’s ice hockey • Guided Quinnipiac to a 16-game improvement from 2008–09 (3-26-5) to 2009–10 (19-10-8) • Led Quinnipiac to its first ECAC Hockey Tournament in program history, hosting a Quarterfinal Series against Rensselaer at the TD Bank Sports Center • 2009–10 ECAC Hockey Coach of the Year • 2009–10 All-New England Coach of the Year and American Hockey Coaches Association Runner-up for Coach of the Year • In 2009–10 Quinnipiac received votes in the USCHO. com and USA Today Division I Women’s Ice Hockey weeky polls before hearing a Top-10 ranking on March 1 for the first time in program history.

Season Outlook There is no question that the accomplishments of the 2009-10 Quinnipiac women’s ice hockey will be difficult to replicate. Head coach Rick Seeley guided the Bobcats to one of the largest singleseason turnarounds in the history of women’s college ice hockey, improving by 16 games. Seeley, and his coaching staff of associate head coach Harry Rosenholtz and assistant coach Cassie Turner, sat down before the season started with the team and came up with two very specific objectives: lead ECAC Hockey in fewest penalty minutes, and host an ECAC Hockey Tournament series at the TD Bank Sports Center. When the dust settled, the team not only led the league in fewest penalty minutes per game, but its 6.5 minutes per game were the best among the 35 teams in the nation. The Bobcats also accomplished their second goal, hosting Rensselaer for the first round of the ECAC Hockey Tournament. The series ended in the hands of the Engineers, winning on a goal in the fifth overtime of the third game. The game ended up being the second longest in women’s ice hockey history. Seeley graduated five seniors last season and reloaded with a talented group of freshman to compliment an experienced group of veterans. The Bobcats will once again look to their netminder, Victoria
20
Vigilanti, as Seeley continues to bring Quinnipiac to the forefront of the women’s ice hockey world. Vigilanti was the Goalie and Rookie of the Year in ECAC Hockey after posting in the top three in save percentage and goals-against average with one of the most impressive seasons in the history of college hockey. While the Bobcats will be without their top three scorers from last season, they return a solid core of veteran players. Jordan Elkins was chosen as the team’s captain in just her junior season after proving to be a team leader in the locker room. Seniors Kelsey Britton and Kelley Davies will serve as assistant captains, while junior Kate Wheeler, the Bobcats’ top scoring forward to return this season, will also wear a letter this season. Bethany Dymarczyk and Wheeler are the only returning players in the Bobcats’ top-five scorers from a year ago. Dymarczyk, a local product playing in her hometown of Hamden, Conn., tallied seven goals and 10 assists for a career-best 17 points from the blue line. Wheeler was close behind with four goals and 10 assists for 14 points. Kristen Eklund, Davies and Brittany Lyons also ranked among the team’s leading scorers from the forward spots, while Regan Boulton was the second-highest scoring defensive player in the Bobcats’ lineup with a goal and nine assists for 10 points.
Seeley welcomes 11 freshman skaters to its roster for the 2010-11 season. Forwards Kelly Babstock, Erica Uden Johansson, Amanda Colin, Lindsay Burman, Elena Orlando, Megan Hagg, Emily MacKinnon and Olivia Brackett look to contribute to the Bobcats offense this season. Defenders Kara Gust, Shelby Wignall and Kelly Lavallee will help Quinnipiac in the back.
Wignall was both a Stoney Creek Intermediate AA Sabres assistant captain and Team Ontario Blue silver medalist at the National Women’s Under 18 National Championship.
Babstock brings an array of offensive tools to the ice and hopes to make an immediate impact. Babstock led the Toronto Jr. Aeros, the 2009-10 Provincial Women’s Hockey League (PWHL) champions, in points (60) and assists (35) and finished second in goals with 25.
Lavallee helped The Governors Academy to three consecutive division two championships from 2008-10. She was an all-league selection in 2009 and an assistant captain and all-league honorable mention in 2010.
Uden Johansson was a 2008 and 2009 Swedish semifinalist with Modo and a 2010 Swedish gold medalist with Segeltorp. She also scored one goal and one assist as a member of the Swedish women’s national ice hockey team in the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver.
The Bobcats will look to the freshmen to help build off a successful 2009-10 campaign, in which the team earned the program’s firstever postseason victory. The team also finished the season with the program’s best overall record (19-10-8) and best conference mark (11-4-7)
Gust was a member of the Tier I Elite Chicago Mission Championship team.
Colin was a team captain, All-State Honorable Mention, AllConference, All-Tournament, All-Metro Third team, and an AllState Academic selection. She holds the record at Burnsville High School for total points, most goals, single-season points, and singleseason goals. Burman helped the Cambridge/Isanti High School hockey team to the conference championship. She was also a member of the second place finishing Minnesota Thoroughbreds of the Junior Women’s Hockey League (JWHL). Orlando guided Shattuck-St. Mary’s to a National Championship in 2009 and a runner-up finish in 2010. She was also a four-year honor roll student. Hagg, who brings her skating speed and scoring ability to the ice, also played on the same Toronto Jr. Aeros team as Babstock. She finished the 2009-10 campaign with 20 points, registering 13 goals and seven assists. MacKinnon captained her high school team, the Kent School, as a sophomore, junior and senior. She also was a member of the Under19 bronze-medal-winning Midfairfield Connecticut Stars at the U.S. Nationals. Brackett helped the Detroit Little Caesars AAA girls hockey team to a state championship.
