In his first season, he compiled a 16-11-0 record and led his team to the MIAC Semifinals, where they narrowly fell to the second-ranked Auggies in the longest recorded game in NCAA Division III women's hockey history.
Isaacson comes to Saint Mary’s following an inaugural season as the head coach of the women's ice hockey program at Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts (MCLA) and seven seasons as the head coach at Division I Post University.
As the previous coach at MCLA, Isaacson built an NCAA program from scratch where he recruited a full roster of players to compete at the NCAA Division III level. In the inaugural season, Isaacson had three players with All-Conference honors and three notched CSC Academic All-District honors.
Prior to his time at MCLA, Isaacson comprehensively built the foundation for the Post University women’s ice hockey program. His 2019-2020 Eagles team was his most successful regular season, winning 12 games and setting multiple school records. Off the ice, his athletes were victorious in the classroom with over 50 student athletes earning All-Academic honors, along with the 2020 Post University Valedictorian.
Isaacson was a graduate assistant for two years at Division III New England College. South Dakota State University is where his coaching career began and notched ACHA Women’s Division II National Coach of the Year twice for the women’s club ice hockey team. That team competed in three national tournaments.
Additionally, Isaacson has held various roles with USA Hockey, including national camp head coach, intern, and district evaluator/coach.
Isaacson is a 2004 and 2006 graduate of South Dakota State University (SDSU) where he was the starting goalie for the Jackrabbit’s club men's ice hockey team. After earning his bachelor's degrees in mass communications and sociology, he received his master's degree in sports and recreation management from New England College in 2015.
