Jody Katz (future General Manager of the Brampton Thunder in the CWHL) joined the Robert Morris Colonials women’s ice hockey program for its inaugural 2005-06 season as an assistant coach. After a 1-7-0 start in the inaugural season, Kevin McGonagle was dismissed. Katz was named the interim head coach for the rest of the season, with Nate Handrahan becoming new head coach for the 2006-07 campaign. Prior to RMU, McGonagle led the Bowdoin Polar Bears to a 20-5-1 record while leading them to a spot in the NCAA Division III tournament.
Brianne McLaughlin finished her career with the Robert Morris Colonials as the all-time NCAA record holder for most career saves with 3809.
On January 8 and 9, 2011, Brianna Delaney made Colonials history. Against the University of Connecticut Huskies on January 8, Brianna Delaney scored the first two goals of the game. Both goals were assisted by her sister Cobina Delaney. This was the first time in their careers at Robert Morris that Cobina had assisted on a goal by Brianna. Both goals were scored within eight minutes of the game. With the two goals, Brianna became just the second Colonial to surpass the 80 point plateau in her career. In addition, she became just the third Colonials player to score 40 career goals as her second goal of the game was the 40th of her Robert Morris University career. In addition, it was the 21st multi-point game of her career. In the second consecutive game versus Connecticut (January 9), Brianna picked up a third period assist to break the all-time Robert Morris University school record for assists in a career. It was her 42nd assist of her career. She assisted on a goal by her younger sister Cobina. This was Cobina’s fifth goal of the season, all of which have been assisted by Brianna.
On January 21, 2011, Brianna Delaney registered her team-leading seventh multi-point game of the season. She had a goal and an assist in the 6-3 setback. It was her 22nd career multi-point game which allowed her to become the first player in Robert Morris history to tally three 20-point seasons in her career. In addition, she also combined with her younger sister, Cobina, to assist on a goal for the second time this season. On March 4, 2011, Thea Imbrogno was named the CHA Rookie of the Year. She became the student-athlete in program history to win a major postseason College Hockey America (CHA) award.
