Clarkson's Weller Signs with Ottawa

Ottawa Senators general manager John Muckler announced March 30 that the club has signed prospect Shawn Weller, the Clarkson University Hockey team's leading scorer, to an entry-level contract.

Weller, 20, was the Senators' first third-round choice (77th overall) in the 2004 NHL entry draft.

The Glens Falls, N.Y., native set career highs in goals (19), assists (21) and points (40) while recording 62 penalty minutes in 39 games in his junior campaign with the Golden Knights.

Playing in 109 career games wearing the Green and Gold sweater, Weller tallied 78 points on 36 goals and 42 assists.

Clarkson closed out one of its best seasons ever last Friday with a 1-0 overtime loss to UMass in the first round of the NCAA East Regional in Rochester, NY. The Knights posted a 25-9-5 overall record and won the ECAC Hockey Tournament title. Weller was named to the ECACHL All-Tournament team.
