"The Woodside Sports Complex in Mauston, was an outstanding host," said Wisconsin coach Tom Drohner. "The fields were awesome! The experience for both teams was about as good as it gets. It was a great event, both teams battled back and forth. There was so much talent on the field, it was great to be a part of. I was really proud of the way our Wisconsin girls represented themselves and the state."
