Steier 79ers

The Steier 79ers are a founding member of the SCHL.  Led by draftee original Joe Thornton, the 79ers have been an upper echelon team for some time.  After landing Sidney Crosby in 2005, the pieces were put in place to capture the Snipers Cup, which they did in 2007.  The 79ers continue to be a team to beat year in, year out.
