WALTHAM, Mass. – Bentley University Athletics mourns the recent passing of former Falcon hockey standout David Langley '81, a 1993 inductee into the Bentley Athletic Hall of Fame.
              
Langley, who passed away on May 7, helped Bentley capture back-to-back ECAC Division III championships in 1980 and 1981. He ranked fourth on the Falcons' all-time scoring list at the time of his induction, with 56 goals and 57 assists for 113 points.
              
Today, four-and-a-half decades after finishing his career, Langley still ranks 14^th in program history in points. He led Bentley's first varsity team in scoring, with 17 goals and 17 assists during his freshman year, and set a school record, since broken, as a junior in 1979-80 with 19 goals, along with 16 assists for 35 points.
              
Langley, who played at Marian High School in Framingham, had a hat trick on March 1, 1980 to give Bentley a 7-6 overtime win over RIT in the championship game of the ECAC Division III playoffs. He completed the hat trick at 3:58 of overtime when he deflected in a slap shot by Harry See on a power play.
              
The following season, Langley helped Bentley to a sparkling 20-1 record and earned second-team All-ECAC Division III honors.
              
Langley is survived by his wife RoseMarie; his children Marissa, Monika and son-in-law Nathaniel, Brandon and daughter-in-law Eloisa; his grandchildren LeviRose Rye, and Roman Julius; and a wide circle of family and friends who cherished him. 
              
A celebration of his life will be held in June.
