After the Middletown High boys lacrosse teams authored one of the most improbable comebacks in state finals history to claim its first championship, coach Dominic Ceresini, junior midfielder Ryan McLister and sophomore goalie Calvin Smith are this week's guests on The Final Score podcast.

The guys chat with host Greg Swatek about their improbable 9-8 victory over Fallston High School in the Class 1A championship game at Stevenson University, during which they overcame a 7-0 halftime deficit and 8-1 deficit with about 15 minutes to play.

Had they given up hope? When did they think a comeback was even possible? What were they thinking once the game ended and they had actually won?

The guys also talk about what made the team so resilient. After starting the season 0-4, the Knights didn't lose again. They won 15 straight on the way to the state championship. What turned the season around? Where did the team's resolve and never-give-up attitude come from?

Lastly, what does the team's future look like? Will they be in position to win another championship next spring?

Prior to that conversation, FNP sports writer Alexander Dacy joins Greg to talk about Middletown's amazing comeback, which he covered for the paper, his recent vacation to the Outer Banks in North Carolina and the start of the Frederick Keys season.
