Prom king, winning goal-scorer for a championship hockey game, and still as humble as can be…that’s Brad Merritt for you. In fact, he probably won’t be too happy that I just included those things. Whoops! I didn’t know Brad going into this interview, but that didn’t stop him from being himself. Keep reading to find out more about this genuine, easy-going guy!

Brad: Dying in a car accident.
HC: Describe your dream girl, or what you look for in a girl.
Brad: I’d say for me, a Christian [I grew up in the Church, so that’s pretty important], pretty, I guess, nice personality, easy-going, funny, and just someone who’s easy to be yourself around.
HC: Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
Brad: Hopefully having a career that I enjoy and coaching a sport, probably hockey.

Brad: Nahh. Well, I guess I went to a church party.
