College Hockey Inc. is accepting applications for the sixth annual College Hockey Inc. Scholarship, presented by JLG Architects. The College Hockey Inc. Scholarship, presented by JLG Architects, is a $2,500 postgraduate scholarship given to an NCAA hockey student-athlete who helps build the game through their support of the next generation of hockey players.
In 2023-24, the grant was awarded to Wilkes University’s Emma Guzdek.
“JLG is honored to once again present the CHI Scholarship recognizing strong student-athletes who make an impact on and off the ice, embodying professional, academic, and athletic excellence,” said Michelle Mongeon Allen, CEO, of JLG Architects. “As designers of community, collegiate, and professional arenas for 36 years, we value the efforts of NCAA student-athletes who aim for the greater goal on campus and throughout their communities — empowering the next generation of leaders.”
The College Hockey Inc. Scholarship, presented by JLG Architects, is open to any NCAA hockey player, men’s or women’s and regardless of division, who is exhausting their NCAA eligibility. The winner will be selected by a committee made up of representatives of College Hockey Inc. and JLG Architects.
“We are very appreciative of JLG Architects and their ongoing support of the College Hockey Inc. Scholarship,” said College Hockey Inc. Executive Director Sean Hogan. “We are also incredibly thankful for all they do for the entire sport of hockey.”
