EXETER, N.H. -- So, on Sunday afternoon I coached in a state championship for the first time.
I'm an assistant coach at Hopkinton (N.H.) High School, which was facing Laconia in the NHIAA Division 3 championship game at Bill Ball Stadium.
As you can imagine, I’m a big speech guy. That’s my role as the assistant at Hopkinton. I fire the boys up.
This is the speech that I gave them in the locker room before we went onto the field for the title game. Also some details about what happened afterward.
