Professional Football Player. For eight seasons (1953 to 1960), he played at the defensive end position in the Canadian Football League with the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Raised in Regina, he played two seasons with the Regina Pats of the Western Canadian Junior League (1950 to 1952), and for a time was property of the Montreal Canadiens (never appearing in the NHL). During that same period, Killoh played junior football with the Regina Bombers (later Rams), and turned professional when he joined the Roughriders in 1953. During the course of his career with Saskatchewan, he was part of a solid Roughriders' defensive line which contributed to them clinching five playoff berths, including an appearance in the 1956 West Final Game. Following his career as a player, Killoh served as a coach with the Regina Rams junior football team and was on staff when they captured four national championships. He was inducted into the Roughriders' Plaza of Honor in 2001, and was named to the Regina Sports Hall of Fame in 2008.
