Bill Kelleher

Forward

At Dartmouth: Bill rebounded from an injury-shortened season in 1993-94 to once again emerge as one of the Big Green's top playmakers. His 18 assists were second on the team and his 23 points were fourth. As Dartmouth's top returning scorer, Bill will be relied upon to get other players involved as well as score more himself. After scoring just twice through the first 19 games, Bill scored three times in the final eight games to help the Big Green skaters go 5-3 over that stretch. In addition to scoring one goal, he also added a career-high four assists in Dartmouth's 7-3 win over RPI. His sophomore year was shortened with a broken arm. Bursting on the ECAC hockey scene as a freshman, Bill finished second on the team in scoring with 30 points. He proved to be more a playmaker than a scorer as 26 of his points were assists. He earned a spot on the All-ECAC rookie team and shared the Booma Award with Dax Burkhart as Dartmouth's top rookie. Bill notched his first collegiate goal in a 6-3 loss to Boston University on December 12, 1992.

High School: An outstanding athlete, Bill lettered in hockey, soccer and tennis at Vermont Academy. He was co-captain of the hockey team his senior year, leading the squad to an 11-5-3 mark and the No. 5 ranking in New England. Bill was named the squad's MVP after amassing 24 goals and 43 assists for 67 points in just 19 games. He also played No.1 singles while leading the tennis team to an 11-0 record and a regional championship.

Personal: Bill's favorite edibles include seafood and popcorn. He is partial to the movie Top Gun and the television show Seinfeld. In his spare time, Bill enjoys playing any sport, especially tennis, golf and softball. He roots for the Boston Bruins, but his favorite athlete is former Boston Celtic great Larry Bird. Bill hopes to pursue a career as a stockbroker.
