Hanover lost a heartbreaker the last time they played Merrimack Valley, but it's fair to say they got their revenge given the result of Tuesday's match. The Bears never let the Pride get on the board and left with a 10-0 victory on Tuesday.

Wyatt Daigle made a big impact while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out ten over six innings pitched. Those ten strikeouts gave him a new career-high. He was also big at the plate, going 3-for-4 with four runs, one triple, and two RBI. That triple marked the first that he has hit this season.
