Rogan Connell has been the head alpine coach at Bates since the 2001-2002 season, making this his 11th full year at the helm. The program has undergone consistent changes for the better since his arrival, be it through the gaining of top recruits for each upcoming season or the further, continuous development of his present athletes. In 2005 Connell was named EISA Coach of the Year.
Before coming to Bates, Connell was the Director of Skiing at St. Michael's College for two seasons. He was also the assistant head coach at Ford Sayre Academy in Hanover, NH, where he coached Roger Brown, who was yet to both become an NCAA All-American as well as a US Ski Team member.
Before his coaching career, Connell attended the University of New Hampshire. He graduated in 1995 with a Bachelor of Arts in Earth Science, in addition to being a two time letter winner for UNH Alpine Skiing.
