The Orangeville Northmen are Junior "B" box lacrosse team from Orangeville, Ontario, Canada. The Northmen play in the OLA Junior B Lacrosse League.
[edit] History
The Junior "B" Northmen were formed in 2001. The Northmen are the farm team for the Junior "A" Orangeville Northmen.
Since their first season, the Northmen have done quite well. They have never failed to make the playoffs and in the 2006 Playoffs they even made the finals. Both the Northmen and their finals opponent, the Oakville Buzz, were founded in 2001. To make the finals, Orangeville beat the Wallaceburg Red Devils 3 games to none, the Spartan Warriors 3 games to 1, and the Niagara Thunderbirds 3 games to 2. The Buzz dispatched the Northmen 3 games to 1 and ended up defeating the Windsor AKO Fratmen in the one-game final of the Founders Cup, 10-4, to win the National Junior "B" title.
