Three graduates of the Manitoba Junior Hockey League are winners of the MJHL Scholarship Fund, commissioner Kim Davis announced.

Kyle Rous (Steinbach Pistons), Justin Dalebozik (Steinbach Pistons) and Tyler Harland (Portage Terriers) have each won a $750 scholarship to a Canadian post-secondary institution. All three players will attend the University of Manitoba this year.

“All three players were tremendous individuals both on and off the ice,” said Davis. “We recognize that going to a post-secondary institution can be an expensive decision. These scholarships will assist our graduating players to pursue their academic goals.”

Meanwhile, the MJHL’s regular season kicks off Friday, September 20 with the defending champion Steinbach Pistons playing host to the Winkler Flyers.
