Ben Murphy comes to Providence from RPI (photo: Brett Bosley).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Providence has announced the hiring of Ben Murphy as associate head coach for the women’s hockey team.<\/p>\n

With 16 seasons of collegiate coaching experience, Murphy comes to Providence after a stint with RPI\u2019s women\u2019s hockey program in 2023-24. Prior to RPI, Murphy had two stints with the men\u2019s hockey program at Bentley (2009-19 and 2022-23) and spent three seasons with the St. Lawrence men\u2019s program from 2019 to 2022.<\/p>\n

At Bentley, Murphy helped guide the Falcons to a program record for wins in a season (19 in 2013-14)\u00a0and a program record eight-game winning streak during the 2018-19 campaign.\u00a0Murphy also helped Bentley to back-to-back winning seasons for the first time in program history in 2013-14 and 2014-15. He helped\u00a0recruit the program’s first NHL draft pick, seven of Bentley’s 100-plus career points scorers, the program’s leader in all major goaltending statistical categories, and the all-time leading scorer for defensemen in school history.<\/p>\n

Murphy\u2019s three-year tenure at St. Lawrence included an ECAC Hockey title in 2020-21. He was pivotal in recruiting for the Saints as well as working with the forwards in\u00a0both skill development and situational\/tactical development. He also handled the team’s power play, coordinated pre-scouting reports and helped coordinate\u00a0program outreach and community service.<\/p>\n

Murphy began his coaching career as an assistant with the Wichita Thunder of the CHL (2006-08) and Castleton State (2008-09). He was a four-year member of the hockey program at Maine (2001-05) where he helped lead the Black Bears to four NCAA tournament berths, including two appearances in the national championship game in 2002 and 2005.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
