If offered the top hockey job at Harvard, Beaney said he would play a style that was "up-tempo" and "aggressive offensively."
"My style is to look to try and play a real transition-orientated game and allow players to be creative," he said.
"There is such a great tradition of hockey at Harvard," Beaney added. "My goal would be to create excitement in the rink."
While Harvard athletes compete in the higher profile Division I, Beaney said his Division III squad is similar to the Harvard program.
"Students come to Middlebury for the academics," Beaney said. "Because of that, it has been a rewarding experience to deal with student-athletes who have a real perspective."
