It will be close early but D-H can wear you down. A nice run for Brocton. 

 

Our Thoughts

" The Fort Plain vs. Madrid-Waddington semifinal may be a battle that will burn up some arms. Whoever comes out on top may not have enough in the tank to take down Deposit-Hancock. If Deposit- Hancock draws Madrid in the final we lean towards D-H. In the end this shakes out to Fort Plain powering their way to another state title."
