"Surreal and a dream come true" is how Sea Dogs President Wayne Long describes the team winning its first President's Cup trophy by beating Gatineau in six games. He tells CHSJ News the team worked so hard this year.
He says they wanted it so badly and they came close last year being two wins away from going to Brandon, Manitoba. He says that kind of stuck with the team all year in a positive way as they learned what it took to win a President's Cup.
He says it's great to give a championship to Saint John which deserves a shot in the arm.
Long adds their work is not done saying they got the first trophy now they want the second trophy.
The team leaves on Wednesday for Mississauga, Ontario with Game 1 of the Memorial Cup on Friday night.
