Boys Varsity Hockey Coach - Matt Mulhern

Coach Mulhern's extensive ice hockey experience includes a year as a professional player team affiliated with the East Coast Hockey League and the Chicago Blackhawks, and a year with the Charlotte (N.C.) Checkers (2000-2001), affiliated with the East Coast Hockey League and the New York Rangers. After suffering a career-ending knee injury, Mulhern began his career at the Groton School, where as coach he directed the ice hockey (1999 to 2000) with the Jackson (Miss.) Bandits, a program, leading to the school's first post-season appearance in the New England Tournament.

A May 1999 graduate of Boston College (Chestnut Hill, Mass.), where he majored in human development, Mulhern was a four-year letter winner on the ice hockey team, which was a Hockey East Championship Team and placed in the NCAA Final Four in 1998 and 1999. In 1999 Mulhern won the William J. Flynn Coaches Award and he was a two-time All-Norton team selection.

Since taking the helm of the Boy’s Varsity at The Hill, the school completed construction of a state-or-the-art hockey arena and facilities, and the team has continued its winning tradition, with the team improving its play and level of competition each year. He’s been instrumental in helping HHA become a strong support organization for Hill and Hill Hockey. Coach Mulhern is Associate Director of Admissions and Director of Financial Aid at The Hill, and lives on campus with his wife, Lindsay, and their three children. Lindsay teaches English and coaches the Girls Varsity Lacrosse team.
