Coach’s quote: “We played well at times tonight, but I feel like we let off the gas a little too early in the game and Kearsarge took advantage of this and fought back into the game. It was a great game for the seniors and it has been a pleasure to coach them over the past four years. Thanks for everything, Coby Mercier, Logan Cassin, Dylan Campbell, Ryan Schoffield, Jesse Hirwa, Will Furtkamp, Tucker Nevers, Matt Renfors and hanager Jeremiah Eastman. Now onto playoffs.” – MV’s Ken Fuller
