Episode 62: Nate Leaman

2-time NCAA D1 Champion Nate Leaman came on the prohockeypod this week and we made the most of our 35 minutes together. Like myself, Nate is a graduate of the NCAA D3 path who has gone on to do great things in the game. He worked his way up as an Assistant Coach with the University of Maine and Harvard before taking a chance with an up and coming program at Union College. Nate wore many hats there and slowly began building a power house that over his time, became a top 10 school in D1 hockey. After his time at Union, Nate took another chance with Providence College and helped rebuild their program to ultimately winning a National Championship in 14/15. Even though we only got to chat for 35 minutes, I left this episode in “awe” of the knowledge Nate has about the sport of hockey. It is easy to see why he has had success with multiple NCAA programs and with Team USA. If you have some time to hear from someone as respected in college hockey as Nate Leaman is, this episode is for you. Hope you enjoy!
