After serving as an interim assistant coach last season, Alex Dawes has been named to the role of assistant coach\/director of operations for the Penn State women’s team.<\/p>\n

Dawes is entering his third season with the Nittany Lions.<\/p>\n

“I am very excited to have Alex on board to continue the excellent work he did this past season,” PSU head coach Josh Brandwene said in a statement. “He’s an outstanding teacher, communicator and recruiter who always has a positive influence on our program.”<\/p>\n

“I would personally like to thank Coach Brandwene, Dr. Kurtz, and athletic director Sandy Barbour for the opportunity to continue to be a part of the Penn State family,” Dawes added. “I’ve had the pleasure of working with our amazing student-athletes for two years now and they are prime examples of everything Penn State stands for in the classroom and on the ice. I cannot wait for our season to begin and I am honored to be a member of this staff.”<\/p>\n

With the Nittany Lions, Dawes primarily works with defensemen, the penalty kill and video coaching. He also oversees the day-to-day operation of the program, including game scheduling, away trip management, home game-day coordination and hockey technology.<\/p>\n

A 2012 graduate of Utica, he served as assistant coach\/director of hockey operations for the Pioneer men’s team from 2009 to 2012. Prior to Utica, Dawes spent his freshman year, 2008-09, at Vermont as the director of hockey operations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
