Maybe it’s because a track meet is a sport with many sports built into one meet, one playing area, each requiring a varying amount of spe…

With one week to go in the regular season, and one conference’s postseason getting underway Saturday, the GameTimeCT top 10 poll stayed pretty steady this week.

We’re getting there. The regular season will be over in two weeks. And though the top of the GameTimeCT boys hockey top 10 poll remained the same, with Darien a unanimous No. 1, there was a bit of churn underneath. New Canaan, a week after dropping to fifth off a loss to Darien, has rebounded […]

Darien has led the poll four of […]
DARIEN — One of the keys to playing in the Darien-New Canaan boys ice hockey rivalry is controlling the emotions of the moment.
It also doesn’t hurt when the offense scores 10 goals.
