PhΓ©nix FB now a MontrΓ©al Carabin

Carabins welcome local commit to their Class of 2017.

Samuel Chénier, a fullback from Collège André-Grasset, will be staying in a city he knows quite well after signing with the University of Montréal Carabins.

ChΓ©nier has quite a lot going for him already at the University of MontrΓ©al. For starters, it’s one of his hometown teams seeing as he hails from MontrΓ©al, QuΓ©bec. The Carabins roster is also a hotspot for Les PhΓ©nix du CollΓ¨ge AndrΓ©-Grasset (RSEQ Division 1). β€œIt’s a great organization and a successful program. Also, I know some guys on the team who played for AndrΓ©-Grasset too and I want to play with them again,” ChΓ©nier said.

The 5’9, 225lbs athlete isn’t only in it for the thrill of lining up with former teammates. The Carabins coaching staff is also a hallmark of the team. β€œI think MontrΓ©al has the best coaching staff, so it will help me to get better everyday as a player and as a person,” ChΓ©nier said, adding that he will start in arts and sciences and then transfer into internal security.

To grow and develop both on and off the field, isn’t that just a wonderful effect of university sports?

(Translation: We would like to welcome Samuel ChΓ©nier into the Carabins family.)
