Brantford running back joins AUS team’s 2015 class.

Tristan Almas has found a home away from home.

Recently, the 5ā€™9, 175 pound running back from Brantford, Ontario committed to Saint Maryā€™s Huskies.Ā  Almas will join the team for the 2015 AUS season.

ā€œI committed to Saint Mary’s because their school and football program felt like home,ā€ expressed Almas.Ā  ā€œThe school is basically new and everything is connected, except for the gym.ā€

ā€œDuring my visit I really bonded with some on the players on the team and also enjoyed the beautiful city of Halifax! A great coach for the Brantford Bisons, Kelly Ireland, I knew coached for Saint Mary’s and the Bisons season did nothing but get us closer. Halifax is a smaller city as well which I personally like a lot, and I can’t wait to put on that Huskies uniform for the first time!ā€
