The Six Nations Pro-Fit  Chiefs are building their future.
Last week, the Chiefs' brain trust got together in preparation for the 2016 Major Series Lacrosse draft. As a result, the Chiefs have decided to protect Six Nations Arrows graduates Shane Simpson, Joseph Haodais Maracle, Leo Stouros and Jordan Durston.
The upcoming MSL draft is January 24 in Oakville.
Maracle is a left-handed scoring threat, who spent two seasons with the Arrows, winning two Minto Cups. Prior to that, the Six Nations resident tore it up in junior B, leading the Six Nations Rebels to Founders Cup titles.

Stouros has the potential to be the future of the Chiefs defence.
