Viktoria Krasteva, Emerson Milne, and Emma Davis each had one goal. Nantucket had assists on nine of their 14 goals.

Following the game, the final senior day ceremony of the year took place to honor the Whaler's incredible young seniors for their contributions to the program on and off the field.

The MIAA released their latest power rankings on Thursday, and the Whalers were #4 in the Div. 4 state tournament bracket. The rankings aren't finalized and official brackets will be released on Saturday according to the MIAA.
