Matt Pohlkamp-Head Coach

My name is Matt Pohlkamp and I am honored to be the SPASH Boys Hockey Coach. I am currently entering my forth year as a SPASH Business Teacher. I am looking forward to making this hockey season, and all that are to follow, a positive and memorable experience for everyone involved with our program.  I have been very fortunate as an athlete to have played Division 1 at Bowling Green State University and Professional Hockey in the ECHL and the EIHL. I am excited to work alongside all of you to continue and build upon the rich tradition of passionate, competitive hockey here in Stevens Point.

Dylan Koss-Varsity Assistant Coach

I have been a science teacher and a coach at Ben Franklin Junior High for the past 7 years. I am currently an assistant 9th grade football coach and the 7th and 8th track and field coach. I also coordinate our school's snow club program. Hockey has been a passion of mine since I started at the age of 6. I continued my career in hockey after high school, playing for the club program at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. I've had my sights aimed on coaching hockey at the varsity level since I started my career in education, and I am really excited for this opportunity
