Greenwich Wrestlers Take 2nd in FCIAC Greenwich Wrestlers Take 2nd in FCIAC Greenwich Wrestlers Take 2nd in FCIAC
Greenwich Wrestlers Take 2nd in Fciac Danbury was the odds-on favorite entering the finals of Saturday's Fairfield County Interscholastic Athletic Conference wrestling championships, but the race for second figured to be close. With four finalists and two champions, Greenwich edged Fairfield Warde and Trumbull to grab the runner-up prize at the meet at New Canaan High School. "The kids did an unbelievable job,'' Greenwich coach George Albano said. "To place 10 guys, it's a credit to how hard they've been working." Johnny D'Elia won the 112-pound championship with a 3-1 overtime decision. Ben Ceci won the 189-pound title with …

Staples' 6-Foot Center Felman Stands Tall Staples' 6-Foot Center Felman Stands Tall Staples' 6-Foot Center Felman Stands Tall
Staples' 6-Foot Center Felman Stands Tall Jake Felman of Staples boys basketball team is undersized for a center. "I'm six feet, on a good day,'' the senior said after the Wreckers' 51-50 win over Stamford on Tuesday. While Felman is shorter than just about every center he goes up against -- he gave away five inches to Stamford's Luis Briddter -- he comes up big in a lot of other areas. Like determination, intensity and intelligence. "He is,'' says coach Colin Devine, "the heart of our team." Tuesday's game was reflective of Felman's season for the Wreckers. He scored a team-high 12 points, helped hold Stamford to one if its lowe…

Wilton Girls Hockey Celebrates Seniors The Wilton High School girls hockey team held its Senior Night ceremonies Wednesday night at Wintergarden Ice Rink in Ridgefield.

The Rams improved to 12-1 overall and 8-0 in the league. With three league games remaining, the Rams have virtually locked up the top seed for the league playoffs.
