PWHL Boston on Tuesday announced the signing of forward Hannah Bilka.
Bilka was selected No. 4 overall during the 2024 PHWL Draft. The 23-year-old spent four seasons at Boston College before she ended her college career at Ohio State. During the 2023-24 season with the Buckeyes, she tallied 48 points on 22 goals and 26 assists.
“Hannah is a dynamic skater who will dictate the pace of play and drive her line,” PWHL Boston general manager Danielle Marmer wrote in a press release. “She has elite vision and playmaking ability, and we expect her to create a ton of offense for us. She adds a dimension offensively that we didn’t previously have, and I couldn’t be more excited to have signed her to a three-year deal.”
The forward won the 2024 National Championship with Ohio State and has been a member of the U.S. National Women’s Team for three straight years. Bilka won one gold medal and two silver medals during the IIHF Women’s World Championship.
Bilka came in as a top forward in the 2024 PWHL Draft, behind No. 1 pick Sarah Fillier and Danielle Serdachny. She will be a fun player to watch at Tsongas Center for years to come.
Boston has 16 players coming back for the 2024-25 season with two new additions of Bilka and defender Sydney Bard.
