Former DU Assistant Becomes AHCA President

From: Polytech Online

The American Hockey Coaches Association announced in May that former DU assistant coach Seth Appert was selected by its members as their new president. Appert follows in the footsteps of University of Denver coach George Gwozdecky, under whom he got his coaching start. Gwozdecky will act as an advisor to the board and particularly to the president, as stated in the AHCA bylaws.

We are thrilled that Seth has agreed to serve in this capacity, said Joe Bertagna, AHCA executive director, in a press release. His self-confidence and energy will give our organization a boost as we set out to meet the demands of our many constituencies.

Appert will serve a three-year term as president, while he continues to guide the Engineers (Rensselaer Polytech Institute) toward a championship.

The AHCA bylaws describe the duties of the president, including to be chair of the Ethics Committee, to represent the AHCA, and to prepare written correspondence with the NCAA, USA Hockey, NHL, USOC, and other such bodies with the executive director, as well as to initiate revisions to the constitution as necessary.

All the guys you post pictures of that are affiliated with DU Hockey are quite good looking. :sigh: I might have to give half of my college hockey time to DU this year. (the other half stays with the Gophers...)
