PORTLAND, ME – March 15, 2019 – The Mariners have signed a defenseman to an SPC (standard player contract), the team announced on Friday. Coughlin is a 6’3, 205-pound defenseman out of the College of Holy Cross, where he just finished up a successful four-year run. He’s also a former college teammate of Mariners forward Ryan Ferrill.

Coughlin (Fairport, NY) was a mainstay in the Holy Cross lineup for four seasons, playing at least 35 games in all of them. In his just-completed Senior season, he led all Crusaders defenseman in scoring, with 21 points – which was good for 2nd on the team overall. Impressively, Coughlin put up double-figure point numbers in all four of his college seasons. For three seasons (2015-16 to 2017-18), Coughlin and Ryan Ferrill played together.

Before Holy Cross, Coughlin played one year in the BCHL with the Vernon Vipers. The two years prior he attended Trinity-Pawling prep school (just north of New York City), where he captained the team in 2013-14 while putting up 26 points in 25 games.

The Mariners are in action tomorrow when they travel to Worcester to take on Railers at 7:05 PM. They’re home on Sunday (Mar. 17th) when they host the Newfoundland Growlers at 3:00 PM for Beacon’s Birthday Bash presented by Evergreen Credit Union.
