Jack Collins

Jack has spent most of his life living in Dayton, Ohio. Growing up, he spent his younger
years playing youth hockey and also played junior hockey for two years in Canada.

After returning to Dayton, he became involved in coaching youth hockey. He started as
Head Coach at the mite level, moving up through high school Varsity Hockey, and has
also worked several hockey schools at the youth and professional level. One of Jack's
most memorable moments was as Head Coach of the 1988-89 Dayton Bluehawks, leading
the team to the AA Bantam Division Nationals in Seattle, Washington.

Jack started working with the Dayton Bombers ECHL in 1999, as a statistician tracking
players on ice progress, scouting opposing teams, breaking down game tapes for the
Head Coach, and continuing on to become Assistant Coach, and Hockey Operations
Assistant.

Jack and his wife, Kathleen, live in Dayton, Ohio in the off season.
