The Crunch’s season seems to be about cycles and finding balance. The season started with embracing the ebb and flow of a lengthy season. Coach Benoit Groulx’s history with early season woes has been categorically documented, but it’s the way his teams seem unphased by the lows of the game that are intriguing.
Just when you think the tide has washed away and the play of the Crunch has left them too far gone to be a contender, on comes a massive wave of success that brings with it wins, personal acolytes, and a renewed sense of team identity.
