Prior to being the Bears assistant coach, Cashman spent five seasons as an assistant coach with the Quinnipiac Bobcats of the NCAA. During his final year with the Bobcats, he was promoted to an associate head coach. Quinnipiac would reach the NCAA tournament four times during Cashman’s tenure, including two Frozen Fours.
