Willner resigns in Alexandria
April 24, 2009
The Alexandria Blizzard has announced that head coach and general manager Brad Willner has resigned from his positions effective immediately.
Willner spent four years behind the Blizzard’s bench, leading Alexandria to four consecutive NAHL playoff appearances. He finished with an overall record of 107-109-20 during his tenure, including an 11-16 postseason mark.
His run in Alexandria was highlighted last season when the Blizzard bested both the Southern Minnesota Express and the Springfield Jr. Blues to win the NAHL’s Central Division playoff championship, earning a berth to the Robertson Cup Championship Tournament.
The search for Willner’s replacement will begin immediately.
