Inside info from Bryce: “We got out in transition and made easy baskets. We had good defensive pressure throughout the game and forced a lot of turnovers.”

Interesting facts: It was Wilton’s homecoming game, so there were a lot of fans cheering on the bleachers. Wilton has two female players on their boys’ team.

Player of the game (unanimous team vote): Sophomore Howard Yuan. “He played strong defense and was an anchor. He didn’t let anyone behind him, and he also rebounded a lot,” Jake said.
