The Rochester Knighthawks named Paul Gait the fifth head coach in franchise history today at a press conference at The Blue Cross Arena. Paul is reunited with his twin brother, Gary, who came out of retirement to play for Rochester this past October. Paul begins his professional coaching career in 2009, replacing departed Head Coach Paul Suggate. "I am very happy having been offered this position and am looking forward to a great season and a great start to my coaching career," said Paul Gait. "I finally have had some time to get back into the sport I love and the sport in which I work in every day. To be back involved with players again is going to be a great situation. I missed it a lot."
