FEATURING ONE OF THE FINEST COACHING STAFFS IN THE COUNTRY
Doug
Derraugh Cornell University Head
Coach
Derraugh, a 1991
graduate of Cornell, returned to his alma mater for the
2005-06 season as the interim head coach. He returns for
his third season at the helm of the Big Red as the full-time
head coach.
Derraugh was instrumental
in the Big Red's improvement last
season, as the team tripled its win
total from the 2004-05 season. The year was highlighted
by conference wins over Ivy League rivals Brown and Harvard,
which was ranked No. 9. He led a squad that scored more
goals (12), allowed fewer goals (18) and scored more points
(34) than the previous season.
Derraugh played
in all 119 contests for the Big Red in his four seasons,
helping lead Cornell to an NCAA tournament appearance and
a second-place finish in the ECAC as a senior co-captain.
He led the team in scoring in his final season with 30 goals
and 36 assists en route to earning second-team All-Ivy and
honorable mention All-ECAC honors. The winner of the team's
Nicky Bawlf team MVP and the Ironman Award for determination
to overcome injuries, Derraugh's 30 goals is the most ever
scored by a senior at Cornell. Overall, he ranks 10th in
career scoring for the Big Red with 153 points (66 goals,
87 assists).
After graduation,
the former Big Red star spent 13 years playing professionally
overseas, seeing action with nine different teams and played
in some of the top leagues in Norway, Germany, Austria and
Finland. He scored more than 100 points in a season twice
and posted 30 or more points 10 times. Derraugh ended his
career with 257 goals and 347 assists in 637 professional
contests. In his final professional season, Derraugh served
as special teams coach for his team.
