The Pilots, in the early and mid-sixties, were always the team to beat in the Manitoba Border League which extended from Manitou to Cartwright. They were always a powerhouse in league and tournament play, and they had good pitching and solid hitting. As one opponent said, “most of them were left-handed, consistent hitters”. The Pilots won the Border League Championships in 1962, 1963, 1965, 1966, and 1967. 1963, however, was their best year. They captured the Manitoba Intermediate B Championship easily, and then progressed to the Manitoba Final. Here, they scored a 3-0 victory over Angusville with Brian Hodgson pitching a no-hitter.
