Head Coach, Cyril Allen began working with the Cal Ice Hockey program in the middle of the 1998-99 season. He continued his association with the team as an assistant for an additional two full seasons. The 2001-2002 season was his first as the club’s Head Coach. Coach Allen grew up in Northern California and played minor hockey in Berkeley from the mid-70s through early-80s.
