The South Carolina Stingrays won their third Kelly Cup this weekend, in former Blizzard D Jared Bednar's second year coaching them. Traded to the Stingrays in the middle of the 1995-96 season, he played parts of five of the next six seasons in North Charleston (when he wasn't being called up!), finally retiring after the 2001-02 season and moving into an assistant coach position with the Rays. He got the big bump up in '07-08, and has coached South Carolina to their first back-to-back 40-win seasons in a decade.
(Note--this will be the first of a recurring series :^))
