It was quite an eventful boys basketball night in Fairfield County.

Down in New Canaan, St. Joseph defeated New Canaan 69-65 to earn the 800th career victory for coach Vito Montelli (above with Greg Langston).

Over in Harding’s Miska Gymnasium, all-state forward Tevin Baskin put on an offensive and defensive show, scoring a triple double to help top-ranked Trinity Catholic roar past Harding, 72-58.

Baskin wowed the crowd with 29 points, 16 rebounds and 10 blocks. Eric Jean-Guillaume added 14 for the unbeaten Crusaders (11-0, 9-0 FCIAC).

Here’s the Trinity-Harding game story from today’s paper.

  1. Mr. Baskin after watching him for the first time last night at Harding H.S. is so dominating that he can play at the next level tomorrow. I think! And I am not the only one see that. He’s very very good , he is jewel to watch on the court because he is special. Believe me. SB.
