| Coach Brian Shuman & Matty Marcone being honored in 2016-one of Shuman's many COY awards |
At today's Ed Burns Tournament tilt vs. Marshfield, a grateful crowd including dozens of alumni players and parents celebrated Coach Shuman’s huge accomplishment.
It has taken Coach Shuman less than 18 full seasons to reach this milestone. Let that sink in- 300 wins in less than 18 seasons.
A personal note from the AD-
The milestone is certainly an accomplishment for the entire Canton Hockey community which continues to produce many talented young hockey players. However, it is impossible to overstate the impact that Coach Shuman's coaching has had on our Boys Hockey program and the boys who have been a part of it over the past 18 seasons.
During that time, the CHS Boys Hockey team has amassed a remarkable record of 300 wins, 35 ties and 63 losses.
Highlights are truly too many to list but among them are:
- Three State Championships- 2010, 2019, 2020
- Five trips to the State Finals- 2009, 2010, 2019, 2020, 2021
- 15 League Championships
- Numerous Sportsmanship Awards
- Later-to-be-appointed commissioner Matty Marcone's "One Shift" Goal

"Brian is the gold standard here at CHS. He models what it means to have a growth mindset and to be a lifelong learner. He embodies what it means to be a player-centered coach.
His coaching truly gets better every year and as a result, the positive impact he has on his student athletes is immeasurable. In times of triumph, disappointment, and even tragedy, he has provided amazing leadership and care for his kids.
He is an amazing role model and representative of CHS. Thank you Coach!"
