Michigan hockey Head Coach Red Berenson announced Monday that he will retire following his 33rd season behind the bench for the Wolverines.

Berenson, 76, won the 2015-16 Big Ten Coach of the Year award with a 22-7-5 regular season record, which included winning the Big Ten Tournament.  They lost 5-2 to North Dakota in the NCAA Regional Final. 

This past season the Wolverines went 13-19-3, it was the fewest number of wins for a Berenson led team since the 1985-86 season.

He is a University of Michigan graduate and has guided the Wolverines to two NCAA Hockey National Championships and eleven Frozen Fours.  Berenson played in 987 regular season NHL games.
