Whitehead out at Maine after 11 seasons
The University of Maine announced Tuesday afternoon men’s ice hockey coach Tim Whitehead has been fired after 11 seasons behind the bench.
Whitehead compiled a 250-171-54 record during his time at Maine, going 96-102-28 in his final six seasons.
University President Paul Fergurson made the final decision to buy out the one year remaining on Whitehead’s contract after a recommendation from Athletic Director Steve Abbott.
“This is about the future of our marquee program. Since 2008, UMaine has experienced declining Hockey East success, season ticket sales and overall ticket revenues, and waning student engagement in men’s ice hockey” said Abbott in an official statement released by the university.
“The President and I are committed to ensuring that our Men’s Hockey Program is financially sustainable [and] continues to focus on developing the student-athlete and is known nationally for excellence.”
Whitehead will be paid $195,000 to honor the final year of his deal…
