Michael McGean, Dartmouth class of 1949 and former Secretary of Dartmouth College, is our coach. As a competitive figure skater in the 1940's and 1950's, Mr. McGean is one of only two people in skating to ever compete at the same US Nationals in Freestyle, Dance and Pairs. In 1951 he and his wife Lois won the World Dance Championship and in 1992 they were inducted to The U.S. Figure Skating Hall of Fame.

For over forty years he has coached local figure skaters in the Hanover area and has always been active in teaching Dartmouth undergraduate skaters. He has coached numerous skaters through their gold tests in figures, freestyle and dance. Mr. McGean is a wonderful inspiration to all of us out on the ice. His commitment to our club team and to us as people is a large part of what make the Dartmouth Skating Club so special.
