2025 Jack McSorley College Scholarship

In 1994, the Grosse Pointe Hockey Association initiated the Jack McSorley College Scholarship Award. It is named after the late Jack McSorley who died before the age of 21.  Jack spent 12 years in the GPHA as either a player or referee and embodied everything we hope to teach kids about athletics and academics.  The Bulldog Hockey Club is proud to carry on this tradition.
