It’s already been a banner year for Barrie sports teams.
First, the Simcoe Country Rovers played in the team’s first-ever Canadian Championship, putting up a valiant effort in an opening round loss to the MLS’s Toronto FC. The Rovers nabbed a spot in the prestigious tournament — that features Canada’s top club teams — by winning the 2023 League1 Ontario championship.
Then, earlier this month, the Barrie Baycats won the Intercounty Baseball League, sweeping the Guelph Royals in the final series. It was the team’s eight ever IBL title.
Can the OHL’s Barrie Colts keep the championship drive alive?
The Colts kick off the 2024-25 season on Sept. 27 on the road against Sudbury.
Last season, the Colts made the playoffs as the eighth — and final — seed — but fell in the first round to the top seed Oshawa Generals.
Can the Colts return to the postseason this year, and make a deep run?
