Quotes

“We knew to be the best you have to beat the best and they are the best by far. In Maine, everybody looks at Bangor, two-time defending state champs. You’ve gotta go through them to win. And if you don’t go through them, people will say ‘Well you didn’t beat the defending state champs. You got it easy,’ so we’re glad we got a chance to play them.” – Brunswick center Dan Hammond on playing Bangor in the Eastern Maine Class A quarterfinals.
