The University of Findlay recently announced the establishment of the Daniel E. Whitinger Memorial Soccer Operating Scholarship.

The scholarship was established in memory of Daniel by his family. He graduated from The University of Findlay in 1992 with a B.S. in psychology and religion. He played soccer all four years during his college career, appearing in 58 games and scoring two goals.

A committed Christian, Daniel traveled abroad on several mission trips where he found soccer crossed all language and cultural barriers.

This scholarship is awarded annually to a member of the men’s varsity soccer team who does not receive any other UF athletic scholarship assistance and who demonstrates a strong Christian character. The recipient may be in his freshman, sophomore, junior or senior year of study and must have at least a 3.0 GPA.
