Tim Breslin Memorial Scholarship | College Scholarship

The Chicago Wolves created the Tim Breslin Memorial Scholarship, which provides a $7,500 stipend toward college tuition, in loving memory of former player Tim Breslin.

Breslin, who was one of the first three players signed by the franchise, passed away on Feb. 9, 2005, due to complications from appendiceal cancer. The Addison native and Driscoll Catholic High School graduate played five seasons with the Wolves and was a member of the 1998 Turner Cup Championship squad.
