Brian Chu joined UMRFC his sophomore year in the fall of 2014. Since then he has brought much physicality to the team with his hard running style and undeniably massive biceps. This 8 man from Malaysia is not a man of many words (as may come across in this article) but if you give him a burrito, he might just welcome you into his muscular yet gentle heart.
