The Adanacs welcome back this perennial WLA and NLL standout after a one-year absence due to an injury early last year. “Mouse” played a limited number of games during the regular season, again due to injuries, but is fit and fired up as the team comes together in the drive for the Mann Cup.

Curt was born in Sault Ste.-Marie, Ontario and first played lacrosse at age four in East Vancouver, but from age 10 until his WLA debut he played only for Coquitlam. In three seasons with the Junior Adanacs he was named Team MVP, a Second Team All-Star in 1990 and a First Team All-Star in 1991 when he also won the Bill Dickinson Trophy as league Top Scorer. Drafted by New Westminster in 1992, Curt played for the Salmonbellies for five years before he was traded to North Shore in 1997.

Curt joined the Adanacs in 2000. He has had a stellar career in the WLA and so far has been named a Second Team All Star twice and a First Team All Star three times. In his first year with the Adanacs he scored 71 goals and 83 assists for a phenomenal 154 points in 33 league and playoff games in a Triple Crown year as a WLA First All-Star Team member, WLA MVP and winner of the Maitland Trophy for skill, sportsmanship and contribution to lacrosse in the community. Curt won the Maitland Trophy again in 2001 and 2002 and has continued to devote his time and great heart in coaching each and every summer and is a quintessential role model for young lacrosse players including the Burnaby Junior Lakers whom he coached for four years including to a Minto Cup championship in 2004.

During the 2001 Mann Cup championship season he scored 52 goals and 68 assists for 120 points in 32 games while also coaching minor lacrosse in Coquitlam. His senior “A” stats through this regular season include 533 goals and 663 assists for an astounding 1204 points and 646 PIM in 398 games. Curt played six seasons for Rochester in the NLL, for the Vancouver Ravens in 2004, for San Jose in 2005 and part of 2006, for Arizona including to the championship game in 2007. He won the championship last season in Calgary with Adanac teammates Dane Dobbie, Mike Kilby and Andrew McBride and Adanac Assistant Coach Kyle Goundrey. His NLL stats include 287 goals and 294 assists for 581 points and 637 loose balls and only 16 PIM in 177 games.

Curt has retired as an NLL player, but will be Assistant GM and Assistant Coach for Calgary next season. Curt’s other sports interests include soccer, swimming and water skiing as well as boating, fishing, playing pool and cards, and movies. Before coaching the Junior Lakers, Curt coached Coquitlam Midget "A-1" and Bantam A-1 teams to provincial gold medals. Curt is an electrician. He and his wife Gilda, who is a day care worker, were married on September 11, 1999. They are doting parents to their five year old son Cody whom Curt coaches in Mini-Tyke in Maple Ridge. Curt’s cooking specialty is fajitas. The list of the people most influential in his lacrosse career include the late and esteemed Bill Munroe, the great John Allen, coach Adam Andre, the former superb ‘Bellies team captain Eric Cowieson and Adanac GM, Les Wingrove.
