Berlin 60, RHAM 21
Berlin 60, Lyman Memorial/WT 10
Berlin 34, Terryville 30
Berlin 38, Trumbull 33
Berlin 50, Waterford 27

"I feel we had the toughest road as we had to content with an undefeated Terryville team and then after that major win we came back against the tournament's first seeded Trumbull and secured a win," Berlin coach Jim Day said. "It was a physically and mentally taxing day. The team displayed solid conditioning, excellent energy and improving focus.

"We still have room to grow competitively, tactically, and technically, that makes this team very exciting to work with."
