Things I'm thinking about:
Its a little longer than one page - what should I take out?
I want to emphasize at an early point that i am a student athlete.
Is that a good place to put my EY internship this summer - considering I'm now applying for jobs in the fall.
Thanks!

Those introductory sentences just destroyed me.
^ should/could be saved for the cover letter
You said it, for the cover letter.
Relevant coursework can be taken out, unless you're going to list specifics. Also, put the hockey and club stuff under activities; you can elaborate there a little as well. Add another after the E&Y intern. But other than that, looks pretty good format wise
you can take out relevant coursework if all you are going to put is finance/accounting. that looks stupid. Like sonny said, that introductory paragraph also looks ridiculous. if you still need space, you can take out the citizenship thing. it's not something that is going to make or break a job offer, but a 2 page resume very much will. These things should definitely give you enough space.
Great Advice so far, thank you. How can I emphasize early on that I am a student athlete without the intro? Assuming of course they dont look at my cover letter.
Why would you want to emphasize you're a student athlete? Do you think that you'll be the only one? Or that it will give you an edge?
If you make it to the interview stage, drop if if you want. Just remember, SHOW, don't tell, i.e. via resume accomplishments.
Another question, should I save the resume as a pdf file?
Yes. You never what know what Word version the reader will be using so it's safer to to PDF to ensure the formatting stays the same. Learned this the hard way several years ago.
