Malden Catholic announced that former MC great Brendan Collier will take over as head boys hockey coach. Collier helped guide the Lancers to Super 8 titles in 2011 and 2012, netting the game-winning goal in the 2011 Super 8 final. He went on to play his college hockey at Boston University and Providence.

“I am extremely thrilled and grateful to return home to Malden Catholic and I’m very excited about the opportunity to lead these young athletes,” Collier said. “Malden Catholic has a rich and storied hockey program history and having experienced two Super 8 championships myself when I attended the school, I understand the overwhelming pride and value that ensues from being part of MC’s tradition of excellence. I look forward to building upon the school’s legacy of success.”
