The Ridgefield boys lacrosse team celebrates its state championship win over Fairfield Prep.
The Ridgefield boys lacrosse team’s dramatic come-from-behind win in the CIAC Class L title game against Fairfield Prep was enough to impress the voters, who selected the Tigers as the Overtime Spring FCIAC Team of the Year.
The Tigers will receive T-shirts in school colors from sponsors BlueStreak Sports Training, Garden Catering and the Stamford Advocate.
Ridgefield finished with 504 votes, or 34 percent of the 1,493 cast. The New Canaan girls tennis team was next with 288 votes, followed by the Staples baseball team (286), the Darien boys volleyball team (218), the Wilton girls lacrosse team (145) and the Danbury boys track team (52).
This is the final team vote of the spring season and school year. It will resume again during the first week of the fall season.
Thanks Joe Willie. The kind words are greatly appreciated!
Thank you Dave for all the coverage you’ve given to so many Fairfield County athletes. i know my son and our family have enjoyed your blog throughout the year.
High School sports is so much more enjoyable than the pro game. These students do it for the love of the game.
Congrats to Ridgefield (who has been a tremedous competitor in all sports with the town we live) and to all the teams considered for this honor.
