Hi everyone!

It was a rainy day in Merrimack, and slippery in some places I gather. We were sorry to have missed the folks from John Stark, but we 110% approve of being safe! We hope that the weather will be better in February….(Yeah, I know how that sounds…)

In any case, 5 varsity and 3 j/v teams gathered at MHS for our tournament and a good time was had by all. Sara and her folks did a fabulous job getting things set, and they even had a full complement of readers, so nobody had to get drafted in to read! Many, many thanks! 

We welcomed Trinity for the first time in quite some time to NHQBL, and we hope they will join us for many tournaments to come! 

Onto the results! It was a very good day for Salem, as the team rolled up 10 wins to take the bid to the state tournament without dropping a match! (I’m super proud of them). On the J/V side, Merrimack j/v ran up a 6-4 record. Here are the rest of the results:

Varsity			J/V
Salem	10-0		Merrimack	6-4

I hope everyone has a great holiday and a happy new year! We are on hiatus until after GSC finishes taping in January, but I will be emailing soon to try and set the remainder of our schedule for the season, so watch your email boxes! 

See you in 2022! (hey, that rhymes!)
