Tyler Harmon, the son of Patty and Rob Harmon has been awarded a scholarship for the 2017 – 18 school year from the University of Vermont, for his exemplary hockey skills. The Harmon family are longtime horsemen that regularly race at Freehold Raceway and the Meadowlands.
Tyler became interested in the sport of hockey after attending a Red Wings game with his family, who are long time Detroit fans. He first began skating in the barn on roller blades, before he decided to hit the ice at the age of seven. According to his mother Patty “Tyler works very hard, when he first started playing hockey he had a natural instinct to protect the net no matter what position he was playing. “ That instinct turned him into the award-winning goalie he is today; he hopes to become the starting goalie for the Catamounts.
We wish Tyler the best of luck in his education and hockey future at the University of Vermont.
