Darien Exposes New Canaan; Takes on Staples in State Quarterfinals

Darien defeated New Canaan for the fourth straight year on Thanksgiving, winning the game 28-21. With the win, Darien collected its second straight FCIAC Championship. New Canaan started the game off strong with a blocked punt on Darien's first drive and scored quickly, but it was all Darien after that, as Timmy Graham had a career day against the Rams. Graham was named the MVP after throwing four touchdowns and passing for over 400 yards, and proved himself as one of the best QB's in the FCIAC.

The Blue Wave now faces Staples High School for the second time this season, this time though in the State quarterfinals. Darien holds the #2 seed in the bracket, while Staples is the #7. The game is at 6:30pm, Tuesday night at Brien McMahon.
