"I think it is a dynasty," Memorial coach Budd Booth said. "I just think the kids have experience from the past and they are up
for it. For these big matches, they really play well. They work hard all year and they prepare for this. I'm proud of them, the entire team."
At state, Memorial went on to beat Southlake Carroll (10-7) in the semis and Plano West (10-7) in the finals to capture the program's second Class 6A State Championship in the past three seasons.
