Greenwich Even after they fell behind 21-0 at Ridgefield Friday, the Cardinals played to their strength: the run game. For the second week in a row, quarterback Jack Wilson had three rushing touchdowns, while Jack Konigsberg ran for 163 yards and two scores and George Vomvolakis rumbled 40 yards for a TD.

The announcement of where a recruit is going on social media has become a made-for-TV production at times depending…

The Natick (7-1, 6-0 BSC) senior running back tandem of Jake Adelmann (189 rushing yards) and Nizayah Montas (64 rushing yards, 2 TDS) was the story of…
All you need to say this week is CM, X. People will know what you’re talking about. Last week was not that great a slate of games, but this one is making up for it. You will see a lot of teams battle it out with playoff berths and positioning on the line. The big one is Catholic Memorial at Xaverian on Saturday in what could be one of the…
Week seven wasn’t as strong a week as other weeks when it comes to the quality of the game but there were still some decent match ups. Week 8 will be a different story however. Ashland grinded out a 29-20 win against a good Norwood team in a game that went back and forth all night. Franklin got a scare against Attleboro. The Panthers were coming off a bye and…
