The 2007 OAC tournament runner-up finish seems like a distant memory right now.  As Ryan Grice begins his tenure at Capital the Crusaders will turn to a strong core of juniors to lead a resurgence in Bexley.  Will it be enough to right the ship following a last place finish in 2009?  Capital fans certainly hope last season was a one year lull.  Let’s take a closer look at the 2010 squad and see if we can figure it out.

Long time Head Coach Bob Fisher has some serious holes to fill in Berea as we head into winter practice, but the cupboard is far from bare as the Jackets look to improve on their 19-19 effort in 2009.
