Scott Sutherland
2020 Scholar
Scott grew up in Queen Anne, MD and has been a lifelong Washington Capitals fan. He joined the UMD hockey team as a freshman. Initially, he did not see much ice time, but Scott showed the determination to work hard and improve in any way he could. His contribution to the team grew every year. Scott's passion for hockey and his love of the game are apparent in the way he approaches preparation. When he was not blocking shots or screening the goalie on a power play, Scott took on a player-coaching role, urging his teammates to victory. Scott has the positive, can-do attitude that every coach looks for. You couldn't ask for a better teammate.
