Alex Killorn was one of the most highly-touted prep school players
coming into college hockey this season, and he hasn’t
disappointed.
The dynamic center came to Harvard University after a successful
career at Deerfield Academy that saw him post 55 points (28 goals,
27 assists) in 24 games and be named the team’s MVP as well
as to the All-New England West team in 2007-08. When Killorn
stepped into the Crimson lineup this past fall, his impact was felt
immediately.
“From the moment that Alex arrived, he’s been an
impact player for us,” said Harvard head coach Ted Donato.
“He’s certainly an offensive catalyst that we rely on
to jumpstart our offense. He’s a guy that not only is tough
to cover and is great offensively, but he also makes other players
around him better when he distributes the puck too. Alex has always
been a key offensive contributor and I think at this level he has a
chance to be a real factor to be reckoned with. He’s gotten
better throughout the year and I think the sky is really the limit
for his offensive abilities.”
