“I am so proud of all my guys for the way they played during the state tournament,” Prince Edward-Farmville Manager John Adams said. “Our win-loss record was not what we wanted but being there to represent Prince Edward Farmville was an honor & the teams sportsmanship trophy was well deserved. I thoroughly enjoyed the time spent with all the guys and hope each one of the them can find something valuable from the game we all love.”
