Last Monday November 10th, the Darien junior varsity football team took on Harding with a strong 21 to 6 victory over the team from Bridgeport.
The Blue Wave played a strong game with 3 touchdowns scored over the entirety of the game. The first two were scored in the first half came from a rushing touchdown from Junior Lou Sanchez and the second came from a passing touchdown thrown from sophomore quarterback Brian Peters to fellow sophomore Quinn Fay. The Blue Wave were successful in the two point conversion after the prior PAT was missed, which put Darien with a solid 14 to 0 lead going into the half.
After half time Harding put together a successful drive that culminated in their first and only touchdown, they would later fail to execute the two-point conversion. After that the Blue Wave got right back in it and were able to score again off another rushing touchdown from Lou Sanchez and sophomore Dillon Jones was able to kick a successful PAT. The game ended with a final score of 21 to 6 in favor of the Darien Blue Wave.
When asked how he felt about his team’s performance, sophomore Cord Fox had this to say “Overall I think we played well, we got kind of sloppy as the game went on which let our opponent stay in the game for too long”.
Come support the team at their next game in North Haven at 5 pm on November 17.
