The highlight of Ted’s playing career came in 1961 when his Hastings Legionnaires won the Minto Cup and were Eastern Canada Finalists in 1962. He played 2 years of senior lacrosse with the Brooklin Redmen and then returned to Peterborough in 1964 to reactivate the Peterborough Speedy Erns Seniors as General Manager. Through the 1980’s and 1990’s, Ted Higgins is responsible for senior lacrosse being played in Peterborough.
