One award, valued at $2,000, will be given annually to a member of any varsity team. Preference will be given to student-athletes on the football team, the men’s or women’s basketball teams, or the men’s or women’s hockey teams. This award recognizes athletic talent and contribution to Warrior Athletics and Recreation, their team, and their community. This fund is supported by Waterloo alumna Lisa McAughey and her husband Don Dennison in memory of their dear friend Rich Nichol, the long-time public address and webcast play-by-play announcer for Warriors basketball, hockey, and football. Dubbed ‘The Voice of the Warriors’, Rich was a staple at the Physical Activities Complex, the Columbia Icefield, and pretty much every other venue where Warriors could be found.
