Bowling Green takes time with search for hockey coach

BOWLING GREEN — Hiring the next hockey coach at Bowling Green State University will be an important decision for a program with newfound momentum, and the BGSU department of athletics is making sure it finds the right fit.

The Falcons are taking their time in replacing Chris Bergeron, who left Bowling Green after nine seasons in charge to accept the same position at Miami University, his alma mater. Bergeron formally accepted Miami’s offer April 5, and the program introduced him as its new coach on Monday.

Bowling Green is due $150,000, because Bergeron terminated his contract early, though naming the new coach could take some time.
