MDI - 165:. MDI finished the season at 7 - 2, after starting 0 - 2. Tonight was also the last home match for the 9 seniors. According to Coach Bryan Maurais. I have loved this senior class. They are unique, talented, smart and fun. They have made every day a delight, and it has been an honor to coach them. Their successes on the golf course pale in comparison to their future successes in life, which I believe to be boundless. I can only coach them for four years, but I will be cheering them on for the rest of their lives.
