On Tuesday, Lindenwood men’s hockey head coach Keith Fisher announced the addition of Andrew Magera as an assistant coach.

“Andrew will be a great addition to our staff and team,” said Fisher. “He is one of the up-and-coming assistant coaches in college hockey.  He gets along great with the players and is very knowledgeable in skills, systems and hockey. The Lions got better today!!”

Magera comes to Lindenwood after spending the last two seasons at Bemidji State as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at Bemidji State University. In that time, the Beavers captured 35 wins, and the 2023-24 Macnaughton Cup Champion for just the second time in program history.

A native of Sioux Falls, S.D., Magera was an assistant coach and director of scouting with the Fargo Force where the team finished its 2022-2023 season with a 40-14-8 record and won the franchise’s first USHL regular season title and the Western Conference Championship.

Magera got his start in coaching in 2014 working with the U14 and U16 Sioux Falls Junior Stampede AAA program. He later spent time with the Idaho IceCats (WSHL) where the team won the 2017-2018 Northwest Division Championship and finished with a 44-4-3 record.

Prior to joining the Fargo Force, Magera served as the volunteer assistant coach with his alma mater Penn State University for three seasons, including the 2019-2020 season when Penn State won the Big Ten regular season with a 20-10-4 record. He earned his bachelor’s degree from Penn State in 2021.
