“This shows that the Northern Maine Moose, although a developing program, is creating notable players,” head coach Aaron Simoes said. “I look ahead to the current varsity players as well as the sixth to eighth grade players and see names that could easily appear on the list in the future. I congratulate these players for their recognition to show that the efforts of the field pay off. I see these players in the gym, putting in extra time before and after practice. That’s how you make the list! These guys are good examples of success through effort.”
