Over the summer the Merritt Centennials website has had several Q & A's with some of the returning Centennial players from last seasons club. Back in July the Cents sit down with former Vernon Vipers tryout goaltender, Tyler Steel in a series of Q & A's with the local Vernon product. Steel attended the Vernon Vipers (2010-11) training camp last year before getting cut during the pre-season. Steel then joined and signed with the Merritt Centennials going 7-16 collecting one shutout and a 3.49 GAA
