Schoedel Named Assistant Women’s Hockey Coach at Buffalo State
Former standout Division I goalie Lucy Schoedel will serve as the lead assistant with Buffalo State’s women’s hockey team.
Schoedel spent the past two seasons as an assistant coach at Division I Brown University, and was an assistant at Wesleyan University, where she was the recruiting coordinator and goalie coach.  She also works with USA Hockey in various capacities, including as a goaltending scout for the national team.
As a player, she spent two years at the University of New Hampshire, making a Frozen Four appearance in 2008, before transferring to Syracuse University.  She was a two-time MVP with the Orange and was also a two-time nominee for the Patty Kazmaier Award, presented annually to the top player in NCAA Division I women’s ice hockey.
“We are very excited to have Lucy be a part of our program,” said head coach Candice Moxley.  “She brings a wealth of knowledge from the women’s game and can make an immediate impact on our team and in the Buffalo State community.”
A native of Ithaca, N.Y., Schoedel completed her bachelor’s degree in psychology from Syracuse in 2010.
