“Vermont and New Hampshire are both very good teams, but this will be another great opportunity for our guys to travel to a beautiful part of the country to play.

Looking to try to put together a full 90 minute performance and we have two more opportunities to do that this weekend.” - Head Coach Mathes Mennell
