CANTON -- For the second time in a decade the St. Lawrence University women's hockey program is turning to a Canton native who spent time as a men's assistant coach to run its program.

The Saints can only hope Chris Wells is able to duplicate the numbers put up by Paul Flanagan, who left the program Monday to become the head coach of the new Syracuse University women's team in a move that shocked his former players.

Flanagan was the top assistant for SLU men's hockey coach Joe Marsh then left to take over the SLU women's program prior to the 1999-2000 season.
