SIBL – B LEAGUE

       There appears to have been some manner of hybrid league involving former SIBL – B League members along with possibly Waterloo.

       McMaster (had two teams, the Maroons and the Rams), which alternately toiled in some form of senior university league, the Hamilton city league and West intermediate play. Players seemed to toil for both teams or just one, or on the city league team but not the others. Distinguishing between units is extremely problematic. Players included Jack Gurney, Bob Leggatt, Don Rutledge, Kenny Baker, Ingram, Washburn, Maxwell, Tartaglia, Bill Traut, Koncar, Miller, Nutley, Charters, Novak, Steinberg, Jimmy Seagers, Hannah, Bingham, Bill Davey, Johnny Harper, McNaughton, McLay, McCahill, Emerton, Murphy, coach Ron Waterman

       O.A.C. (now Guelph); Kevin Kennedy, Smith, De La Rosa, Shiels, Lindblad, Strong, lain, Harvey, Hay, Campbell, Corman
