(Ottawa, Ontario ā December 19, 2016) ā The Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) announced today that Tristan Grosman, a U Sports football player from St. Francis Xavier University, received a sanction of four years for an anti-doping rule violation. The athleteās urine sample, collected during out-of-competition doping control on April 24, 2016, revealed the presence of dehydrochlormethyltestosterone.
In response to the CCESā notification of the adverse analytical finding, Mr. Grosman admitted the anti-doping rule violation and a hearing was held to determine the sanction length. Arbitrator SoubliĆØre imposed a sanction of four years ineligibility from sport, terminating April 25, 2020.
