MSPAA Trooper of the Year 2022
The Maryland State Police Alumni Association is proud to announce their selection of the 2022 Trooper of the Year. This award has been a tradition with the organization for over sixty years. We are honored to recognize the hard work that all our nominees did over the past year as they each combat crime on our streets and highways. Our troopers are great. Our nominee pool consisted of heroic events, life-saving measures, high traffic and criminal enforcement, and continued dedication to the community and its citizens.
In 1962, the Alumni Association selected it’s first “Trooper of the Year”. Then and now each new Trooper of the Year is chosen from a field of outstanding Troopers that have been recommended by their commanders. The MSPAA Trooper of the Year is selected by the Alumni’s Trooper of the Year Committee, which is made up of a cross section of retired troopers. The award for the preceding year is always made in May of the following year.
