Finding themselves in need of a goal, the Wildcats made several charges at the Foxboro net only to be met by Adair’s saving efforts preventing a score and giving the Warriors the win 2-1.
Commenting after the game Coach Mike Madden stated, "I thought the team did a good job - that one penalty kick really hurt us. Ryan Madden had a great shot scoring and I thought our goalkeeper Nate Breslin was great in goal. All of our guys played good, but in sports sometimes you don't get as many goals as the other team. You feel for your seniors, but both teams played well enough to win. Unfortunately we lost, but Foxboro did a great job and we wish them well."
