HEAD COACH
BILL MCSWEEN
Welcome to a new hockey season Ranger Fans! My name is Bill McSween and I am the proud son of Bill and Marge McSween. When the opportunity came up for me to coach this group I was excited and could not wait to become a part of the family. I have played at the High School, Junior, and Collegiate levels of hockey. As a high school player I was voted All-State my senior year and had the opportunity to play in the Chicago Showcase and Hockey Night in Boston. This enabled me to play in NAHL and AWHL junior A hockey leagues. The highlight was playing in the Junior A National Tournament in 2002. I received a scholarship to play at Davenport University where I was a captain and won 2 National Championships. I also had the opportunity to play for my country for the USA select team in 2008.
Our coaching staff strongly believes high school hockey offers players the unique opportunity to develop as people, leaders, and pillars within the community. You are only as good as the people you surround yourself with and I am lucky to have a great coaching staff. This year we have Kyle Marchand, Logan Davis and Will Snyder who are excited to be part of Forest Hills Central Hockey. We are looking forward to carrying on the tradition of Ranger hockey and creating a winning culture. Thank you to all the parents, administration, and student athletes for making this possible. Go Rangers!
