A two-sport star, Gallagher accumulated several former passing records for the Cadet football program. He is tops in program history in: career pass completion percentage (49.9), career passing yards (3,682), touchdowns (31) and career completions (257) . He was also a defenseman for the men’s ice hockey team. 

"I have so many fond memories from both sports," he said. "Among those for football, the 1984 football team was great because of what we accomplished going 9-2. Those Saturdays were so much fun. It's a great testament to Coach Mynter and the staff for the fact that we've been enshrined in the Hall as a team." 

"Hockey was just as special," he added. "It was good to be able to be around so many fun guys." 

Gallagher also took away a sense that Norwich was the right place for him from the first time he stepped foot on campus. 

"There was a good change between who I was when I arrived to the time when I graduated," he said. "It was just a great situation all the way around."
