Justin Kular
It will be a long flight to Bishopās University for Justin Kular of Surrey, BC, but he doesnāt mind. āI chose to commit because the school has some great programs and the coaching staff and players were very respectful and made me feel like I was home,ā Kular said, who is interested in criminology.
āCoaching staff was amazing. All the coaches really cared about their players and they all had a positive attitude,ā he added.
Kular has played for both the North Langley Kodiaks and the North Surrey Bears. The 6ā4, 225lbs athlete won a championship title in 2018 and was also the āmost outstanding offensive playerā that season. He won an MVP award in 2015 and a coachesā choice award in 2014.
