Get to know Tyler!

Name: Tyler Wright

Birthdate: October 10, 1988

From where and what high school: Truckee High in Truckee, CA

Year in college and major: I'm somewhere in between a sophomore and junior which probly means I should be picking a major soon

Where have you been, and what have you done so far this summer? What are you going to do? I took a short trip down to San Francisco with some friends and another over towards San Diego with a bunch of my fam but other than that, there's just been lots of training

Favorite summer food and drink? You really can't beat lemonade but chocolate milk comes in a close second. For food, I would have to go with a nice tasty burrito or some In n Out

What’s your sweetest memory from the 07/08 season? Just training and racing with the team was lots of fun. Also, finishing up my last year of racing as a junior was kinda bittersweet

What are you looking forward to the most in the coming season? Putting all of my hours to some use and getting to know all of you cool people even better

What is the best thing about MSU and Bozeman? The best thing about Bozeman is definitely the location. You can do so much stuff right from campus and not spend half your time driving. The cold snow is also a super nice change from the heavy stuff we get around Tahoe

Do you have a good summer story we should know about? I went kayaking down a river for my first time a couple weeks ago without learning to rollfirst. That was pretty exciting. My buddy didn't want me to swim if i flipped so instead, i would wait for him to come over and then use his boat to get back over. waiting to be rescued as I floated upside down, completely helpless through rapids, is definitely not my favorite thing to do.
