Brampton has reason to cheer at Olympics
Frank Juzenas - The Brampton Guardian - February 2, 2010
Tyson Heung grew up in Brampton and started skating with BOSS, what is now the Brampton Ontario Speed Skating Club. He moved to Germany after graduating from McGill University and has had success with that country’s national team. The now 30-year-old is in his second Olympics after getting top 20 finishes in both the 500 m and 1,500 m four years ago and helping Germany finish seventh in the 5,000 m relay.
