Editing Boston Spirits (section)

=== Quentin Bethea Era (1986 - 1995) ===
Through Bethea's first season in charge, the Spirits' performance seemed to slightly dip, finishing third in points. In the playoffs, however, Bethea swept the Sailors to bring the Spirits to the finals in his first season in charge. Despite winning the first game of the finals series, they eventually lost [1 - 3] to the fabled 1987 Bas-Canada team.

The Spirits bounced back from their finals defeat in 1987 by winning a fifth league title in 1988. They would successfully defend this title five times, setting the record for most consecutive league titles won.

In late 1994, Bethea announced his retirement at the end of the 1995 campaign. He brought the Spirits to the finals, but was unable to defeat the Sailors. In the Coupe Balbuzard, the Spirits brought an end to a decade-and-a-half-long drought by defeating the Providence Doves 4 - 0 in the final.
