Vanier College is proud to announce that Vanier Science student and hockey player, Tyler Hungerbuhler, is the recipient of a $500 sport-études bursary from the Desjardins Foundation.

Aiming to maintain his grades, Tyler has developed his own tools for studying and understanding science by looking for links between concepts and theories. He also keeps up good communications with his teachers and above all delivers his school work on time.  So, although he puts in a lot of hours of hockey practice, Tyler still finds ways of achieving his academic goals.

In 2018, Tyler won the Canadian Prep School Championship while playing for the Bishops College School Hockey Team. He also played on the all star team during his first year on the AAA junior circuit, and played more than 20 games with the Sea Dogs of the LHJMQ. After Cegep, this talented defenseman hopes to continue playing hockey at the university level.

Tyler who is currently studying Pure and Applied Science, would like to become an engineer. “Engineering forces you to think critically and allows you to understand the world much more deeply,” he says.

The Sport-Études Foundation and the Desjardins Foundation enthusiastically support athletes pursuing post secondary studies, applaud the support student athlete bursary winner receive from teachers, parents and coaches.  L’Alliance Sport-Études, that brings together 45 colleges, Cégep à distance and nine universities, support more than 1,400 student athletes in 50 different sports.

Congratulations to Tyler Hungerbuhler!
