“The defense really came together and played well today,” said Lingo defenseman Malcom Chase. “The first time we played Dogfish Head we almost lost because of defensive lapses.”

“In the final, we came together and our slides were there,” said Chase. “I believe the defense needs to be tough to support the offense.” He also praised his team and their sponsors. “It’s great playing for the Lingo team,” he said. “The Lingos are such a great family that do a great job in the community.
