The coaching legend continues to grow

By Paul O'Dacre

Huron Hockey’s Program Director, Dennis “Red” Gendron, continues to add laurels to an already outstanding coaching career.

Gendron will be inducted into the New Hampshire Legends of Hockey Hall of Fame on Sunday April 1 at the Event Center at C.R. Sparks in Bedford, N.H..

Gendron has been an integral part of Championship teams at every level of hockey where he has been involved. He started at Berlin High School with the New Hampshire State High School Championship in 1975. Then Gendron went on to receive four Vermont State titles as Head Coach at Bellows Free Academy; an NCAA title as Assistant Coach at the University of Maine; three Stanley Cup Championships as a member of the New Jersey Devils coaching and scouting staff, and most recently, he led his University of Massachusetts Minutemen to the final Elite 8 of the NCAA hockey championships.

In addition, Gendron was named the 2006 winner of USA Hockey’s prestigious “Walter Yaciuk Award” for coaching excellence. His best selling book, Coaching Hockey Successfully, is considered the ultimate authority for the coaching fraternity.

You won’t find a more dedicated and sincere person than Red.

Huron students love him and so does the staff! We look forward to a great summer with Coach “Red.”
