Head Coach Kyle Martin

Kyle Martin’s hockey journey began with the Erie Lions Travel Hockey Organization, 2000 birth year AA where he developed his love for the game and built the foundation for his competitive career. He went on to play for Cathedral Prep from 2014–2018, becoming part of one of the most successful high school programs in the state. During his time at Prep, the team captured multiple championships, and Kyle credits that environment for shaping his work ethic, leadership, and passion for team culture. Kyle continued his career at Gannon University Club Hockey (Division II), where he played a key role in rebuilding the program and helping establish a winning culture. Known for his leadership and commitment, he served as Assistant Captain in his junior season and was named Captain his senior year, leading by example both on and off the ice. Martin joins Montour after impactful coaching roles with South Pittsburgh Rebellion Hockey (14U/15U/16U AA) and West Allegheny Varsity Hockey (PIHL). His ability to connect with players, teach the game with clarity, and elevate team culture has earned him a strong reputation across the region.
