A consistent, relentless attack keyed the victory tonight for the Mounties in their home opener.

"Eric Hirsch has really stepped up his game since last season and appears to be a threat to score or create a scoring opportunity every time he touches the ball."

"Dan and Sam did a great job running the flags and getting service into dangerous scoring areas. Their speed put a lot of pressure on the Burr and Burton backs."

"It was great getting Felix back" [he missed that last half of the season with a groin injury]. "He's so skilled and finished off to very nice goals tonight."

"Many young players made their varsity debut tonight and acquitted themselves well to the speed and intensity of the match. They will give us depth at all positions that we didn't quite have last year."

"Monument comes to town on Tuesday. It's always a great game when our two teams get together and we're eagerly looking forward to facing one of our Berkshire county foes." [We beat them in PKs in the WMass semis last year.]
