A Vernon Secondary School (VSS) Panthers alumni is showcasing his football skills at the annual CFL Combine.

Hosted in Winnipeg, the week-long event began on Tuesday, March 19. The program seeks to showcase the top football athletes from Canadian Universities and Canadians in the NCAA. They are scouted by general managers and coaches of the nine CFL teams.

Brad Hladik recently finished up his university career with the University of British Columbia. The dual threat linebacker/tight end played 31 university games throughout four seasons, after graduating from VSS in 2018.

More importantly, Brad has shown that he can contribute on special teams and that might be what gets him attention at the next level.香蕉视频直播

A total of 84 prospects will be competing at the combine in a plethora of skills, from exercises such as bench press, 40-yard dash, vertical and broad jumps, beginning on Thursday.
