In keeping with franchises with a tradition of winning we next had a chance to visit and speak with the new Head Coach of the Colorado Mammoth, Bob McMahon. Bob is no stranger to coaching in the NLL, having led the Albany Attack to the Championship final in 2002, after a 14-2 record. That year also gained him Coach Of The Year honours. Since then he has been an Assistant Coach with the Arizona Sting.
