Cam MacDonald enters his first season with the Stonehill men's ice hockey program as an assistant coach for the 2025-26 season. MacDonald arrives in Easton following a successful stint as an assistant coach at Colby College, where he worked under his father, longtime head coach Blaise MacDonald. At Colby, MacDonald played a key role in all aspects of recruiting and was instrumental in the development of individual player skills, particularly focusing on defensemen both in-game and in practice.
He also coordinated the Mules' power play unit, which finished second in the NESCAC with a 20.3% (15-for-75) conversion rate, and helped lead a defensive unit that ranked third in the conference with just 2.46 goals allowed per game.
Prior to his time at Colby, MacDonald spent three seasons as an assistant coach at Amherst College. There, he managed the recruitment of student-athletes, oversaw skill development, directed defensive play, and prepared opponent scouting reports.
A 2018 graduate of Colby, MacDonald was a standout for the Mules, leading his class in both points and games played. He earned NESCAC All-Sportsmanship Team honors in 2016 and 2018, and was a key contributor to the 2018 NESCAC Championship team that advanced to the NCAA Division III Frozen Four.
Following his collegiate playing career, MacDonald signed professional contracts with the South Carolina Stingrays (ECHL affiliate of the NHL's Washington Capitals) and the Fayetteville Marksmen (SPHL).
