Hall head coach Steve Boyle said, "I'm extremely proud of this competitive group of young woman. Our 15-4 record represents much more than wins and losses. These girls learned life lessons about themselves, the value of hardwork and a 'no regrets' mentality that will last them a lifetime. They represented Hall and West Hartford with absolute grace and class. And I will surely miss our lone senior Kelsey Smith, but feel beyond blessed to know I get to work with such a great group of girls again next season."
Final score: Cheshire 12 - Hall 10
