Jen & team are receiving lots of accolades (Junos, tv, radio, royals), yet not as many for the Buff Boys from the Soo?

Perhaps the Buff Boys need a promoter like the Jones rink.

Excellent point. I do know that the Jones Team has a PR rep. But Manitoba has made far more of a fuss of Jones than Ontario has of Jacobs. I guess it is up to me to nominate them for the Order of Ontario and Ontario Sports team of the year. As a resident of the centre of the universe, I will admit our fellow Ontarians in the North are often forgotten. NOCA are you listening? Let's get those boys out there.

Was it just Jen that got the order, or other team members as well? Jen has always been solid, but Jill has been there since their first junior celebrations as well.
