Tom Herman: A major element in El Paso hockey’s rise and success

UTEP Hockey Head Coach Tom Herman has led the Miners to a 21-2-1 record with two games remaining in the 2018-2019 season. The fourth year head coach has been at the helm of this hockey team since its inaugural season in 2015, but his passion for the sport has been engraved in his life for many years.

“I started playing at an early age and grew up playing hockey pretty much every day. I pursued my own hockey career through college and playing in Europe,” Herman said. “I found myself here in El Paso as the youth hockey director and it’s been fantastic.
