Former Greenwich High School football star Jonathan Meyers is profiled on a front page story of the sports section in today’s New York Times. Meyers, a freshman, talks about his decision — which surprised many — to attend Princeton instead of Florida.
While heading to the Ivy League was viewed by many as the road less traveled in a football sense, Meyers does a good job of explaining his choice.
Meyers’ alma mater is involved in the most interesting game in today’s slate. Greenwich, a team everyone thought would slide back to the pack this year, faces Darien, which was considered a possible sleeper in the Fairfield County Interscholastic Athletic Conference. Given the way the season has played out so far, it would be wise not to pay too much attention to the pundits.
