Probably
outside
of
Fr.
Hagan
coaching
the
rifle
team
no
one
has
coached
one
particular
sport
longer
than
Coach
Busenhart
in
hockey
for
41
years.
Coach
Busenhart’s
Coaching
Philosophy
is
the
template
of
the
SLUH
coaching
philosophy‐‐‐He
summarizes
it
in
this
way‐‐‐‐The
best
coaching
experience
is
not
just
winning

but
working
with
young
men
helping
to
make
their
experience
at
SLUH
one
that
is
filled
with
good
memories.
Hopefully
conveying
to
our
young
man
a
love
for
the
game
of
hockey,
ability
to
work
as
a
team,
sportsmanship
in
losing
as
well
as
winning
and
dedication
to
the
values
taught
at
St.
Louis
U.
High.
The
terms
Curia
Personalis
and
Man
for
Others
are
tossed
around
like
I
Love
You’s

School
Prom.
