The Truro Junior “A” Bearcats are pleased to announce the return to the lineup of Truro native, Ben Higgins.
He played the 2015-16 season with the Bearcats picking up 13 goals and 15 assists in his rookie year. For the last three years he was a reliable forward with the Halifax Mooseheads. Higgins came up through the Truro and Area Minor Program, advancing to the Truro Bearcat Major Bantams for two seasons, followed by a year with the Weeks Major Midgets.
The Bearcats selected him as a Territorial in 2015, as did the Mooseheads in the Quebec Major Junior Entry Draft. A proven scorer and 200-foot player, he brings a high offensive upside and a wealth of experience to the Bearcats. The 20 year-old will provide leadership in all zones through his speed, passion, and energy.
