Connor Donahue (Groton, Mass.) and

Former Pioneer defensive midfielder and Fighting Bison coach
Terry Ellis (Denver '14) also got his hands on the Morrow Cup Monday, capturing the championship after leading the Bison to a runner-up finish in the inaugural season of the league a year ago.
Marano finished with 21 goals in the four-game playoff run after an eight point night on four goals and four assists in the final game of the CCBLL campaign. Donahue chipped in two goals and a helper and Baptiste scored his second goal in as many games in the league this season, having missed a majority of the 2018 slate due to MLL and international duty.
