“Being a Stinger is an honour” says CEGEP recruit (VIDEO)

CEGEP offensive lineman joins RSEQ team’s 2016 class.

Alexis Ouellet found the perfect fit when he was shopping for a CIS home.

Recently, the 6’2, 280 pound offensive lineman from Quebec City, Quebec committed to the Concordia Stingers.  Ouellet will join the team for the 2016 RSEQ season.

“Concordia was a great choice academically because I want to study in Teaching English as a Second Language and they have a good program and the campus is amazing,” explained Ouellet of his decision.  “The fact of studying in English also had an impact.”

“Also, they are a young team and with last year’s results and their philosophy, I think that it could become something big and I want to be part of it. Being a Stinger is an honor for me.”

Among the teams Ouellet has suited up during his gridiron career include CEGEP Division 3’s Chicoutimi Cougars and CEGEP Division 1’s Champlain-Lennoxville Cougars.  While with the Cougars, the offensive lineman helped the team win the Bol D’Or Championship.

Previous to CEGEP, Ouellet played for five years with high school team Courvilloise Centaures.
