Stingers CEGEP recruit’s first choice

CEGEP receiver recently signs with RSEQ team.

There was never a doubt where Samuel Phaneuf wanted to begin his CIS career.

Recently, the 6’1, 191 pound receiver from Ste-Julie, Quebec signed with the Concordia Stingers. Phaneuf will join the team for the 2015 RSEQ season.

“Concordia was my first choice because I really liked the connection the coaches had between them and their players,” elaborated Phaneuf of his decision.  “Their players are like their own child and I really like that relation.”

“Other than that, some of my old teammates are playing at Concordia and they said that it was the place to be.  After my first visit, I quickly realized that it was really the place to be, the energy of coaches and players was special and I wanted to be a part of this big family. #stingerpride”

Phaneuf completed his CEGEP career with Division 1 team, Edouard-Montpetit Lynx.  He began his gridiron career at the age of 12 with St. Bruno Barons.
