The Université Laval Rouge et Or struck a blow at the end of June by recruiting coveted running back Kalenga Muganda, a player the organization had had in its sights for several years.

"He's a guy we've been watching since he was in high school," said Mathieu Bertrand, head of recruiting for Laval University, today. He is an exceptional running back and is a great addition to our program. I know that Glen [Constantin, the head coach] had been on the case for a few years. »

Rain and good weather

Muganda made the weather rain and shine in Quebec, when he wore the colors of the Blizzard of the Séminaire Saint-François. Moreover, he is the most successful player individually in Quebec school football.

The ball carrier then joined the Spartans of Old Montreal, before playing a season in California.

Will the rookie be able to show his talent on the Université Laval field this season?

"He's the kind of player who could see some action this year, indeed," Bertrand said.
