Fort DuPont Alumnus Bryan King The Godfather of Hockey - The Making of The Cannons Documentary

    • Documentary

This week on the Godfather of hockey podcast we have Fort DuPont alumnus Bryan King.
Bryan shares with us his ice hockey origin story, and the fine art of learning how to stop on those skinny little blades we call ice skates.  
Bryan also tells us about how Fort DuPont became his make shift family when things weren't going so well at home, and how the Cannon brotherhood helped shape him into the man he is today.  Like many of our guests on the pod, Bryan didn't experience racism as a Fort DuPont Cannon but away from the protection of Coach Neal the world was not as open to a Black hockey player.  
Now a coach with another DC program Gonazga, Bryan has taken his lessons from Coach Neal to make his own.
