Coach Kaminski, a native of Pittsburgh, PA is in his third season as the California University of PA women’s head coach and originally joined the coaching staff as the second women’s head coach in the programs history. Gregg is also a graduate of Cal U with a Masters in Intercollegiate Athletic Administration.  Currently Gregg is an Academic Advisor at the University of Pittsburgh in their Undergraduate School of Business.  Coach Kaminski plans to utilize his educational accomplishments and working background as well as his abundance of coaching experience at all different levels and apply them at Cal U.

Dating back to his playing days, Kaminski played high school hockey for North Allegheny and at the collegiate level at Geneva College.  Kaminski began his coaching career by returning to North Allegheny and coaching all three levels from freshmen to varsity from 2001-2006.  Coach Kaminski moved on to coach Robert Morris University’s ACHA Division III team from 2006-2008.  Kaminski is a level four USA Hockey certified coach.

In the 2010-11 season Gregg led the women’s team to their first ever DVCHC Division I Championship.  This past season, he led the team to their first ever ACHA Division II National Tournament and highest ACHA ranking ever.  During his first two seasons Gregg has had the women’s team consistently ranked among the top programs in the ACHA Division II.  He has also been voted a finalist for the ACHA Division II National Coach of the Year for the past two seasons.  He hopes to continue the standard of excellence with the women’s program at Cal U by building off this past season’s success on the ice while also using his background as an academic advisor to help the women succeed off the ice.  He is looking forward to leading the women back to the ACHA Division II National Tournament and  the DVCHC playoffs.  Feel free to contact him with any questions or comments.
