Sioux Falls, SD-The United States Hockey League (USHL) announced Thursday that Stampede forward Kieffer Bellows has been named to the All-USHL Third Team. Bellows has captured three postseason awards from the USHL. Last week, he was named USHL Rookie of the Year and to the USHL All-Rookie First Team. Click here to view the All-USHL teams.

This past season, Bellows tallied 52 points (33g, 19a) in 58 games to finish second on the Stampede in team scoring. His 33 goals were the most scored by a 16-year-old in the USHL Tier 1 era (2002-present). Bellows caught fire the second half of the season, scoring 22 of his 33 goals after the holiday break. He recorded six multi-goal games, including three hat tricks. Two of those three-goal games came in a span of seven days-January 31st vs. Tri-City and February 7th vs. the Fargo Force.

Bellows played a key role in the Stampede capturing the Clark Cup as week ago as well. He tallied 11 points (9g, 2a) and a plus-9 rating in 12 playoff games. Four of his nine goals were game-winners, including the Herd's Clark Cup clinching game last Friday, which tied the USHL Tier 1 era record for most game-winners in a single playoff era.

The native of Edina, Minnesota was selected by the Stampede in the first round (13th overall) of Phase One in the 2014 USHL Draft. He is a product of Edina High School and helped them capture a state championship in 2014. Bellows is a top prospect for the 2016 NHL Draft and is committed to play college hockey at Boston University following his USHL career.

Bellows and the Stampede will now prepare for tryout camp, June 12-15th at the Denny Sanford PREMIER Center. It marks the first time ever that camp will take place in Sioux Falls. More details, including a complete schedule, will be made available in the next week. For the latest Stampede news follow the club on Facebook and Twitter @sfstampede.
