Bill Mehilos is a former collegiate All-American and former top 12 pro who made his debut on the SR48 tour at the 2020 WPH RFC. Mehilos is well schooled in percentage handball, possessing the ability to play offense and defense with both hands, while surprising his opponents with stiff arm and fly kills. Mehilos will be a force on the SR48 for many years, as the “Bulldog” is as tenacious as he is skilled.

Can the Bulldog tackle the WPH Rapid Fire Challenge? Let’s find out.
