Yea they dominated, but I have a feeling they were laying back a little and using the entire bench
All four lines saw good playing time. A lot of cute plays were tried, at one point at least ten passes in the St Francis zone without a shot. Cycling, cycling, cycling, looking for the perfect play. They've played better and I wouldn't say this effort was as solid as they showed in the Tartan game.
St. Francis has only one senior playing, so they could be an interesting team to watch next year. Not top tier, but they could be decent.

Yea Tartan seems to be a better team, which is maybe why the score was misleading..
I'm surprised that other people are surprised from this outcome.
FLake has a decent club. I wasn't surprised to see they won; however, they did pull off an upset versus GR tonight.
FLake is not the same team compared to their first meeting with GR.
It didn't help that GR is simply decimated with injuries, too.
Flake does have a nice group of seniors. I've had them in the preseason top 25 each of the past two seasons, and they didn't stay there in either regular season. But tonight, they got it done. Nice win for the program.
I'm curious to hear what Perry's status is for Andover; if he's out, Flake has a very real shot at the 7AA final. Either way, we'll have a team that has never been to a section final before.
