Serratore, Air Force ready for big challenge against ranked rival Army
Frank Serratore isn’t taking time to admire the scenery.
Through 33 years of coaching, including 30 seasons at Air Force, the Falcons’ hockey coach has been a part of great college hockey rivalries.
He led the Denver Pioneers in 1993 when he and Colorado College’s Don Lucia oversaw the creation of the Gold Pan, the trophy at the heart of one of college hockey’s most played rivalries. He led Air Force in 2013 when the Pikes Peak Trophy was created in memory of former CC and Falcons head coach John Matchefts.
There’s no hardware to be won for the Falcons’ 97-game series against archrival Army, and that won’t change in Serratore’s final season behind a college hockey bench.
