               JOHN MARCHETTI NAMED WOMEN'S HOCKEY COACH
                 Former Yale Assistant Returns To New Haven
 
   NEW HAVEN, Conn. -- John Marchetti, who guided Providence College to
   more than 250 wins and five ECAC titles in 14 years, has been named
   head coach of women's hockey at Yale, Athletic Director Tom Beckett
   announced today.
 
   "John Marchetti brings a very strong head coaching background to this
   appointment," Beckett said. "We are pleased that John has joined the
   Yale coaching staff, and we look forward to working with him to build
   our women's hockey program into an Ivy League championship contender."
 
   A 1971 graduate of Providence, Marchetti compiled a 262-69-15 overall
   record as the head women's hockey coach at his alma mater from
   1980-94. His 1991-92 team won a school-record 22 games and captured
   the ECAC Tournament. In 1993, Marchetti was named AWHCA Coach of the
   Year after the Friars went 21-5-3 and won their third straight ECAC
   crown. In all, he led PC to seven 20-win seasons and 12 appearances in
   the ECAC Tournament.
 
   This will be Marchetti's second tour of duty at Yale. He was an
   assistant coach for the Bulldogs in 1995-96. He also has experience on
   the international level, serving as an assistant coach for the U.S.
   women's national team at the 1994 World Championships and the 1993
   Olympic Festival. This past winter, he was a volunteer assistant at
   Northeastern, and in 1995 he was a game video analyst for the Anaheim
   Mighty Ducks.
 
   "It's exciting to be returning to Yale," Marchetti said. "I'm looking
   forward to continuing to rebuild the women's hockey program."
 
   Marchetti inherits a team that finished 4-23-0 overall last year. He
   replaces Joe Snecinski, who resigned in March.

Marchetti is an excellent coach and I look for Yale to improve
tremendously over the next few years.
