The Howe Sound final went right down to the wire and it was a great game. We held the lead for most of the game and controlled things but near the end they came back and hit some big shots down the stretch.

Building the program at Collingwood, we've had a lot of the younger students come out to support us. You can really see that the younger kids are looking up to the senior boys. They've become role models within the school, which is great to see.
