Forward Connor Levis Announces NCAA Commitment to Bowling Green

Langley, B.C. — Vancouver Giants 20-year-old forward Connor Levis has announced his commitment to Bowling Green State University.

The Vancouver native will join the BGSU Falcons upon the conclusion of his WHL eligibility at the end of the 2024-25 season.

“I am excited to commit to play Division 1 hockey at Bowling Green State University,” Levis said. “I would like to thank everyone who has supported me along the way!”

Levis is the first Giant to commit to an NCAA school following the changes to the eligibility rules for NCAA men’s hockey.

Levis is currently fifth on the Giants in scoring this season with seven goals and 11 assists for 18 points in 21 games. He was drafted by the Winnipeg Jets in the seventh round of the 2023 NHL Entry Draft, 210th overall. The right-shot forward has suited up in 244 career Western Hockey League games between the Kamloops Blazers and Giants, during which he has accumulated 196 points (83G-113A).

BGSU is located in Bowling Green, Ohio, near Toledo. The hockey program competes in the Central Collegiate Hockey Association (CCHA) conference and plays out of the 5,000 seat Slater Family Ice Arena.
