FCIAC Basketball Championship


The "Z" prior to Ridgefield/Danbury

You always hope for a good game in a championship, especially when you don't have a rooting interest. That's what we got on Thursday night at Wilton High School as Ridgefield came from behind to defeat Danbury 52-49 and win the FCIAC Boys Basketball Championship.

Even though I've been at games with Ludlowe and Warde. It was good to get out and "cover" a game. It was a great time with Rob Adams and Wilton head coach Joel Geriak, who were calling the game for Local Live, along with Scott Ericson of Hearst and Dave Ruden of The Ruden Report. Also, a shout out to Ben Talbot of Bird Eye Sports, who was running the video side for Local Live.

You can read game stories by Scott and Dave and listen to Rob and Joel call the game.

James St. Pierre's basket with 1:18 left gave Ridgefield a 47-46 lead, one they would not relinquish. St. Pierre was named FCIAC tournament MVP.


A few stops later, Ridgefield would be crowned the champion.



Great night. Figured I would put a quick post together. I've been told I should write/blog more by multiple people, so hopefully I do.
