Smith Swordsmen

The Swordsmen became the proud owner of an SCHL franchise in May 2010 after purchasing the Tarpan Horses.  It's been a long time coming for GM Wade "Ballsille" Smith, who had been hoping for an SCHL franchise for sometime.  Now with a foundation in place, we'll see if he's able to sink or swim in the SCHL.
