Everything went Colebrook Academy's way against Moultonborough Academy in their previous meeting back in May of 2024, as Colebrook Academy made off with a 17-1 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Mohawks since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
