CHILLIWACK — The Chilliwack Chiefs announced Wednesday (Dec. 20) that 18-year-old defenceman Hunter McInnes has committed to play NCAA hockey at Division I Lindenwood University in St. Charles, Missouri.
McInnes, a 6-foot-1, 185-pound product from Nanaimo, is in his third season with the Chiefs. The 18-year-old defenceman has racked up 16 points in 54 BCHL games.
“We’re happy for Hunter, especially after battling through some injuries over the last year and a half. He’s physically ready for college hockey and we are excited to continue his development path getting him ready for university,” says head coach Brian Maloney.
The Chiefs say McInnes is not only a strong player but an exemplary personality in the locker room as well. The BCHL hockey team says it appreciates how McInnes has given back and invested heavily in the Chilliwack community, always sporting an infectious smile.
