Find out who's on the Vermont rosters for the 2024 Lions Twin State Soccer Cup vs NH
Vermont and New Hampshire resume their rivalry battle on Saturday, July 20 with the long-running Lions Twin State Soccer Cup on tap at Hanover High School.
The boys game is slated to kick off at 1 p.m.; followed by the girls contest at 4. The event, in its 49th year, pits recently graduated high school seniors from each state against each other.
Kim Prestridge of White River Valley is the Vermont girls head coach. Milton's Cait Fogel, Arlington's Brandon Smith and White River Valley's Omar Calhum-Flowers will also serve on Prestridge's staff.
Shane Bufano, recently hired to take over the Champlain Valley program, will direct the Green Mountain boys squad, along with assistants Rob Cole (CVU) and Chris George (Middlebury) and retired South Burlington coach David Martin.
After New Hampshire swept both games last summer, the Granite State extended its lead in the all-time series — 21-14-5 on the girls side and 20-18-10 in the boys matchups.
