Trailing 14-6 at halftime, Madison focused on turning the page in the second half, a mindset instilled by coach Myles Duelm, who encouraged the team with the mantra \"What's next?\". The defensive adjustments and improved execution of the game plan played a significant role in Madison's comeback, ultimately resulting in a dramatic win. The loss keeps Clark's losing streak at nine games dating back to last season, with their next match against LEE on Friday at Heroes Stadium.",
