Grant Munro

Warren Grant Munro was a Canadian ice hockey defenseman who was an All-American for Denver and helped the team win consecutive national championships in the early 1960s.

Career
Munro grew up in Regina and played for his home town junior team, the Regina Pats. He helped the club win consecutive Abbott Cups in 1955 and '56. In 1957 he followed his former junior coach Murray Armstrong to Denver and began playing for the Pioneers. He joined the varsity squad in 1958 and became a stalwart defender on one of the most dominant teams in college hockey history. He helped the team win championships in 1960 and 1961 and was an All-American in his senior season. In the 1961 championship he recorded 4 points in Denver's 12–2 win, setting a record for defensemen in a title match (unmatched as of 2020).

After graduating, Munro briefly played professional hockey but retired after the 1962 season. He and his wife Ileen moved to Maine in 1967 and remained there until his death due to complications from Parkinson's Disease in 2019.
