Weekly Update


“Take the best team and the worst team. Line them up and you would find very little physical difference. You would find an emotional difference. The winning team has a dedication--they won't accept defeat.” - Anonymous
This week’s quote summarizes our team’s can-do attitude.  The late start to our first round game this past week did not affect our performance.  I am very proud of the way this team has embraced the “teamwork” philosophy.  This video is just one of many examples of the unselfish play on the field that occur on a regular basis.  The victory has placed us into the second round against Tiverton this coming week.  As we enter our final week of the season, we need to remain focused on our goals and keep up the intensity in our practice sessions.  Our semi-final game against Tiverton is scheduled for Wednesday May 30 @ 4pm at NHS.  The State Championship game is scheduled for Saturday Jun 2, 2012 @ 4pm.   ALL players are expected to be at the playoff games. 

We will be holding a practice sessions at the regular times with the exception of Monday May 28 from 9-11 am.  A pasta party has been discussed for Tuesday night.  Details will be provided at practice.
