BC commits Colin Sullivan, former Yale recruit, for 2012

Posted on May 13, 2012 | in News | by

Avon Old Farms defenseman Colin Sullivan, a draft choice of the Montreal Canadiens, will join Boston College this coming fall.

A 6-foot-2, 180-pounder, Sullivan was a New England Prep All Star this past season. Before Avon, he played for Fairfield Prep in Connecticut, his home state.

Sullivan was previously committed to Yale but decommitted in January after the Yale coaching staff approached him about playing a year of junior hockey. Sullivan reportedly wanted to come in as a freshman in 2012.

    Well, let’s look at it this way…

    - he’s going to a national championship team
    - I don’t know if his year at Avon was a fifth prep-year or not. If it was, he might just want to go forward with his college career – both academic career, and hockey career
    - On hockey – by playing in the top echelon of NCAA hockey – his pro value increases and at a faster rate
    - On academics – he’ll get his bachelor’s in 2016, or even earlier. It is COLLEGE hockey, you realize….

    Welcome to Chestnut Hill and the national champion Boston College Eagles, Colin!

      I realize it’s COLLEGE hockey. … Honestly, not sure what your agenda is. That post was nothing more than three paragraphs reporting on what happened with not an ounce of personal opinion.
