"Wow. Probably the best game since I have been here. Elmhurst was likely the top team in our Region coming into the day. Coach Morrell and his staff are a class act and always have their kids ready, so we overcame a lot today to get this one. With how the game was being called and some of the runs Elmhurst made, it would have been easy for our guys to check it in, but they found a way to overcome it. Today was about the team and the program, so I won't mention anyone's player or effort. Today they pushed through as one. Fun day for Carthage lacrosse."
