The Quinnipiac Bobcats men's ice hockey team picked up a verbal commitment from 1998 Swedish born William Fällström for the 2018-2019 season. He is currently playing for the Fargo Force in the USHL where in 11 games played, Fällström has 7 points (1 goal, 6 assists). A native of Stockholm, Sweden, Fällström is in his third season in the USHL after playing 44 games in 2015-16 with the Omaha Lancers and only 4 games a season ago with the Bloomington Thunder before going back to Sweden to play for Djurgårdens IF J20 in the SuperElit League where he had 12 points (2 goals, 10 assists) in 19 games played. The 5'11, 179 pound right shot forward has experience playing both center and left wing.

He had previously committed to the University of Minnesota back in June of 2014. Fällström is the younger brother of former Harvard University forward Alexander Fällström who saw time with the Providence Bruins before returning to Sweden to play hockey. He has played for the Swedish National team for the U-16, U-17, U-18 in multiple international tournaments. Fällström becomes the first Swedish born commit in Quinnipiac as the Bobcats look to expand their reach over the globe at finding talent to come to Hamden.
