Coach’s quote: “What an exciting game for these players to be part of. They never gave up. To tie the game up with two minutes left was very uplifting. Lilly Merrill scoring both goals to bring the game into overtime and then Nadia Hanna stepping up to take the penalty stroke. So proud for them. And hats off to Amy Desrochers for helping to control the middle of the field, (and Emma Pelletier, Grace Smith and Abby Poole) for making big contributions on defense.” – Concord’s Nicole Armaganian
