Princeton, N.J. - Keith Fisher, a junior hockey assistant coach with more than eight years of coaching experience, has been named an assistant men's hockey coach at Princeton University. Fisher most recently served as the assistant coach and recruiting coordinator for the Omaha Lancers of the United States Hockey League.
Fisher spent five years with the Lancers coaching staff. He served as the team's recruiting coordinator and academic advisor, in addition to other responsibilities of on-ice coaching, video breakdown and game analysis.
"Keith Fisher has done a tremendous job as the assistant coach and recruiting coordinator of one of the most successful junior teams in North America for the past five years," says Princeton head coach Guy Gadowsky. "He has an excellent reputation and is know for his great work ethic. I am thrilled to have someone of Keith's ability and experience to join our staff."
"Princeton is the top university in the nation," says Fisher. "The opportunity to work there, with a coach like Guy and the team that is in place, is something that really appealed to me."
A native of the Zim, Minn., Fisher's coaching career began in the Minnesota public school system as a coach of both football and baseball at Cherry High School. Prior to his arrival in Omaha, Fisher served two seasons with St. Cloud State University's hockey program as an Undergraduate Assistant.
Fisher served as Associate Coach for Team USHL last February at the USHL Prospects/All-Star game.

Fisher has also been a part of USA Hockey Select Festivals for the past two years. A graduate of St. Cloud State University, Fisher has a Bachelor's Degree in Communications. Prior to coaching, Fisher played two seasons at Hibbing Community College, participating in the NJCAA National Tournament during his tenure there.
