Coach’s quote: “I thought our midfield passing was very good today and our defense did an excellent job. Much better energy in the second half against a very organized Laconia team who made us work for everything. We need to play with the second half energy for 80 minutes. Very impressed with Laconia’s effort and game tonight.” – Bow’s Jay Vogt
