Boys' Basketball Faces Trinity Catholic


The boys' varsity basketball team is gearing up to play the powerhouse team in Fairfield County. They face Trinity Catholic on their home court in Stamford at 7pm on Friday. (1/29) The boys are eager for a better result than earlier this week. They went down 48-35 to the Greenwich Cardinals on Tuesday. (1/26) The 1-10 Blue Wave was evenly matched against the 1-10 Cardinals. On their home court, Greenwich came out firing, jumping to a quick 9-0 lead led by junior guard Greg Donlic. After a quick timeout by DHS coach Kyle Marian, the Blue Wave tried to respond and closed out the quarter by a score of 16-7. However, the Cardinals run was not done, as they went on an 11-3 run in the second quarter to close out the half at 27-10. The Wave came out of the halftime huddle fired up and finally responded to the Cardinals hot shooting by winning the third quarter by six points and closing on the Cardinals. The team played tough in the second half and late into the fourth quarter, Darien got within nine points behind senior center Charlie Kunze, however, that was the closest it would be. Donlic kept hitting threes for the Cardinals and the Wave could not connect to get a much- needed win.
