We knew we could make it again, especially for us seniors. We have such a big class and wanted to extend our season as far as possible. We wanted to go out with intensity every single game in the playoffs." It'll be a rematch of last year's state semifinal won by Hudson 2-0. Maniar scored twice and Elliana Durachinsky were the heroes with goals for Hudson (21-0). Cameron Murdoch, Hannah Meese and Maniar added helpers.
