Coach\u2019s quote: \u00a0\u201cI was really proud of the way we came out early with purpose at both ends of the court. Tons of energy and toughness, which has been our trademark over the past few weeks. More so the way we responded after Gilford had a big third quarter, we stayed calm and made plays down the stretch to win against a good team. Whipple was impressive again tonight, but I\u2019m also excited to see the way Parker Goin, Drew Huff, Austin Needham\u00a0and Ajay Tremblay have been helping us. We are more than one player and that makes us dangerous this time of year.\u201d \u2013\u00a0Kearsarge\u2019s Nate Camp<\/p>\n
