The Justin Wheeler Memorial Scholarship was established in memory of Justin Wheeler. Justin, who graduated from the Williams College of Business in 2010 with a degree in finance, was a 4-year member of the club hockey team. During this time, he was a 2-year captain and 3-year officer (including President his senior season). His leadership skills, both on and off the ice, helped catapult the program into heights unimaginable when he first stepped on campus. After graduation, Justin returned home to his native Buffalo where he continued his leadership and charitable nature – coaching a multitude of youth & high school hockey teams over the next decade. This scholarship is intended to honor his legacy and continue the pursuit of academic excellence at Xavier University.
Donations to The Justin Wheeler Memorial Scholarship will be used to establish a permanent endowed scholarship fund. The Justin Wheeler Memorial Scholarship will be awarded to the individual who best embodies Justin's leadership and charitable nature. The scholarship will be awarded in the Spring to a rising Senior.
