Joining a talented group

Proulx steps into a defensive backfield that already has plenty of quality. Homegrown players Joshua Poznaski, Rico Geyer and Peter Daigeler provide a strong local foundation, while imports Will Johnson, Kosi Onyeka and Kessawn Abraham bring additional experience and depth. Proulx fits right into that group and adds even more versatility to the unit.

A defense built to compete

With the combination of experienced homegrown talent and quality import players, the Berlin Thunder are putting together a defensive backfield with real depth and championship pedigree. Proulx and his two titles are a welcome addition to a group that has serious ambitions for the 2026 season.
