ALEXANDRIA, Va. — The Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) is naming its 2025-26 TCA Scholarship Fund recipients who collectively will be receiving a total of $176,725.
“The TCA Scholarship Fund remains one of the most valuable initiatives offered through TCA membership, providing an opportunity to give back and honor the legacy and future of the truckload industry,” said TCA Scholarship Fund Chairman Joey Hogan of Covenant Logistics. “In the face of economic challenges, we were able to provide over $176,000 in scholarship monies which reflects TCA’s strong commitment to this important program.”
Since 1973, the fund has been providing scholarships to students associated with the trucking industry. Each scholarship recipient must be a student in good standing attending a four-year or two-year college or university and must be associated with a TCA member company.
The application process was managed by the Ohio Foundation of Independent Colleges (OFIC). A selection committee, established by OFIC, scored the applicants, taking into considering the applicant’s GPA, major, extracurricular activities, hours worked, and more.

The Trucker realizes that federal and state regulations impacts trucking companies and their drivers. While the goals of most new government regulatory programs may be to gain broad public support, in practice regulations usually come down to detailed rules and paperwork that can be highly costly and burdensome to those who have to comply. These regulations often have a more significant impact on smaller companies who have limited resources and have more difficult time adapting. For example, new equipment and personnel regulations can create extra expenses for trucking companies and meeting these regulations can be costly.
