Brian Day, the Nobles boys hockey head coach since 2001, will retire from his spot behind the bench at the end of the season.
Despite retiring from coaching hockey, Day will continue teaching economics in the history department at Nobles.
Day's first season at Nobles was 2001-02. From 2002 to last season, Day coached Nobles to a stunning 363-173-46 record. That doesn't include this season.
Nobles has made the playoffs seven of the last nine years, making the Elite 8 Tournament three times and snagging a spot in the Large School Tournament four times.

Day also guided his team to three Flood-Marr Tournament titles in 2008, 2011 and 2021.
The laundry list of high-end players Day coached is immense. Many went on to play at either the Division 1 or 3 college level. Some went on to play professionally.
A few of the big names were Jimmy Hayes (Dorchester, Mass.), John Muse (East Falmouth, Mass.), Bill Arnold (Needham, Mass.), Kevin Hayes (Dorchester, Mass.), Colin White (Boston, Mass.), Miles Wood, Billy Sweezey (Hanson, Mass.), Cal Burke (Boxboro, Mass.), Luke Stevens (Duxbury, Mass.), Jayden Struble (Cumberland, R.I.), Patrick Moynihan (Millis, Mass.), Casey Severo and Ben MacDonald (Weston, Mass.).
All went on to successful hockey careers post-Nobles.
The current Nobles team is 13-6-1 and within striking distance of an Elite 8 spot. Junior forward Billy MacAusland (Westwood, Mass.), who is still uncommitted, leads the team in goals (22) and points (46). Senior forward and Yale commit Kyle O'Leary (Medfield, Mass.) has been a force with 18 goals and 44 points. Goalie Justin Lee (Newton, Mass.), an '09, has shown a lot of promise.
Day's teams have always been in the mix down the stretch. This team looks to continue that trend.
