He told them that he has never experienced this as a coach. While the Williston players were disappointed, this could be a blessing in disguise. Multiple players on the team are feeling the wear and tear from playing five games in ten days.<\/p>\n<p>This would have been Williston&#8217;s second game of the day. In the first, which began at 10 a.m, the Wildcats defeated Nobles 3-2.<\/p>\n<p>After I sent out the news on twitter, many of the team&#8217;s followers reacted to the news. Here are just a few of my favorites:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"48\"><img alt=\"\" width=\"48\" height=\"48\" \/><\/td>\n<td><b>Tom Jenkins (<\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/sweetmusic65\" target=\"_blank\">@sweetmusic65<\/a><b>)<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"2\">\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/sweetmusic65\/status\/417445267739521024\" target=\"_blank\">12\/29\/13, 7:01 PM<\/a><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WillistonHockey\" target=\"_blank\">@WillistonHockey<\/a>\u00a0Berkshire paid off the refs.
