Eric Hirschhaut enters his first year as Director of Hockey Operations and Video Coordinator in 2026-27.
Hirschhaut, the program’s first-ever full-time Director of Hockey Operations/Video Coordinator, joined the Huskies staff ahead of the 2026-27 season with experience in operations, coaching, scouting and player development.
For the Huskies, Hirschhaut prepares and supervises video operations, oversees team travel arrangements, assists in player development and coordinates special events and performs other duties related to elevating the women's hockey program.
Most recently, Hirschhaut served as an assistant coach at Gilmour Academy in Gates Mills, Ohio, during the 2025–26 season, overseeing individual player development, video analysis, opponent scouting and recruiting. Gilmour’s U18 Prep posted a program-best 47–17 record, finished No. 17 nationally and saw all graduating players advance to higher levels of junior hockey.
Prior to Gilmour, Hirschhaut spent two seasons as an assistant coach with the Aberdeen Wings of the North American Hockey League (NAHL), helping the team reach the playoffs in both seasons. While with the Wings, he also contributed to player development, defensive coaching, video analysis, draft scouting and recruiting, working with players who advanced to NCAA Division I and III and USPORTS programs. After graduation, he was a hockey operations intern at the University of Massachusetts and was a scout for the Fargo Force of the United States Hockey League (USHL).
A 2022 graduate of SUNY Fredonia, Hirschhaut played Division III hockey while earning a degree in Sport Management with minors in Business Administration and Athletic Coaching. He was a recipient of the Chris de Bruyn Award, a member of Chi Alpha Sigma and a SUNYAC Academic Honor Roll selection all eight semesters.
