Isaiah Wright (2015/ATH/Holy Cross, Wtby) did not play this past week for what is being called an in-school incident. It is unclear whether he has been suspended indefinitely or dismissed from the team and possibly expelled from the school. It was severe enough that his name has been removed from the team's roster on the school website.

[DGunz]

Who are you guys' favorites for All the divisions for the state championship?
Mine:
S- Ansonia- maybe not as good as last year, but too many athletes to lose IMO
M-Hillhouse- best team speed in the state I think
L- No idea...Hand miiiigggght not be the best team in the state...but could win Windsor has a definite shot, Middletown is good the rest idk...North Haven has a decent shot if they make the playoffs
LL- toss up between a few teams, but still can't be sure , havent seen Greenwich play yet or southington but LL is the most competitive, staples is the favorite , Xavier and west haven are excellent

Some very good games coming up:

Middletown - Xavier
Greenwich - Staples
Newtown - Masuk

 

[Bootsthemonkey]

Almost forgot Hyde - North Branford

 

[coachcap]

You'll be able to tell how good Southington is on Thanksgiving morning. At 9-0, they have qualified for the LL Tournament. Cheshire has been their Achilles heel for years. That game will be a portent of how they do in he post-season.
