GABRIEL BILL '26 Recruiting Profile

My name is Gabriel Bill. I'm a 2007-born Left Defenseman. I played for the NJ Avalanche for six years working with Coaches Dan McCarthy, Tom Natoli, Mike Natoli, Andrew Ojeda, Colin Church, Anthony Day, Rob Hutson, Eric May & Jamie Cahill. Most notably I played for the 15O and 16UAAA Premier teams at the NJ Avalanche and am very grateful to Coaches Hutson, Day, and May for the tremendous growth I had under their instruction. This last season I played for the NY Saints 18UAAA team and had 20 points (6 goals and 14 assists) as a defenseman in 49 games. Next season I will return to the North Jersey Avalanche under Coaches Chad Dlugolecki and Zane Kalemba. I am very excited to return to my hockey home and am looking forward to a great season with a great bunch of players at a great hockey club. I am a traditional defensive defenseman and I work hard to play smart hockey and I hope to play junior hockey in the seasons to come and then to play college hockey while pursuing a degree in Economics and Finance. I am graduating this spring from EF Academy International Boarding School where I have had a tremendous educational experience. Not only have I been able to pursue hockey but I've been able to pursue many other interests. I am studying IB English Language and Literature, IB Math Analysis and Approaches, IB Economics, and AP Psychology. I am also an IB Music student studying piano both classical and contemporary. I participated in Model United Nations winning best delegate as the representative for Russia. I have appeared in several student films as an actor and in a play and a musical as an actor, director and stage manager. I am a member of the National Honor Society and  the NHS activities community. EF has provided me with a diverse and international experience while helping me achieve academically.
