Mike Kemp (born December 13, 1952) is an American athletic director and former ice hockey head coach for the men's program at Omaha.
In the summer of 1996, the Omaha Mavericks, who had announced the intention of sponsoring a Division I program beginning in 1997–98, hired Kemp as the team's first head coach.
Two years into their conference experience, Kemp got the Mavericks to post their first winning season, going 24–15–3, earning a final ranking as the #13 team in the country and just narrowly missing the NCAA tournament.
The following offseason Kemp was offered the position of Athletic Director with the university but turned it down when he determined that he couldn't be both head coach and AD at the same time.
[4] Two years later Kemp stepped down as head coach to accept a position as associate AD, clearing the way for 2-time national champion Dean Blais to take over the program.
