Patriots GM reflects on successful 2019 season

The Mount Forest Patriots have once again seen their season come to an end in the North Conference Final.

The Pats lost in overtime to the Alliston Hornets in game 6 last Friday, to lose the series 4-2. However, the season was a success, as the Pats locked up a third straight Pollock Division title to cap off an unprecedented run starting in 2017, after 21 seasons with no championships.

As the season transitions into the off-season, Patriots GM Rob Nixon is reflecting on another great year, while starting to try and look forward toward the future of this team. The full interview can be found here:
