Former Burnaby Laker star John Wilson was named the new head coach of the junior A Lakers Saturday.
Wilson, a former Western Lacrosse Association Rookie of the Year in 1990, will coach alongside new assistant Stu Watson.
"I'm very excited. It was a call out of the blue," said Wilson, who was an assistant with the senior Thunder in Langley two seasons ago.
Wilson, a three-time junior all-star with New Westminster, scored 186 goals and 423 points in 105 junior A games in his career.
Wilson also spent 15 seasons in the WLA with both Burnaby and Coquitlam, where he earned a second Mann Cup ring with the Adanacs in 2001.
