The North Bay & District Assante-Thomson Financial Partners minor bantam AAA Trappers are NOHA champions.

They defeated the visiting Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds 6-3 in the fifth and deciding game of the series on the weekend in Powassan.

The game five message was the same message every game since the beginning of the season,  attention to detail, stick to the game plan and trust each other,” said Trappers head coach Sheldon Masson.

Captain Kaedyn Long says it was great to hoist the trophy as Northern Ontario’s best.

“It’s a great feeling to win,” he said.  “My teammates worked hard all year long, week in and week out.”

Team members include: Thomas Sefton, Chase Thompson, Caleb Shank, Aiden Lucier, Cooper Brazeau, Dylan Lemcke, Vaughn Thomson, Justin Turgeon, Justin Rousseau, Kaedyn Long, Royce Rochefort, Kasen Paquette, Skyler Shepstone, Nolan Masson, Tristan Perry, and Carson Laronde.  Coaches are Sheldon Masson, Marc Long, Chris Fraser, trainer Shawn Shank and manager Jeannine Wolfe.
