Last Friday night the boy’s soccer team beat Norwalk 2-1 in the first round of the FCIAC tournament.
After a grueling first half, senior co-captain Tim Pritchard made a goal off of a free kick bent into right corner of the goal. “[Senior co-captain] John-Luke Ferrandino scored the second goal in the lower right corner with 5 to 6 minutes left on the clock and the bench went crazy,” said sophomore Jack O’Rourke.

Two goals on corner kicks, the first by senior captain Tim Pritchard and the second by junior Steven Valente, as well as a goal on a penalty kick by senior captain Jon-Luke Ferrandino, lifted the boys soccer team over the Fairfield Ludlowe Falcons Wednesday night under the lights at Dunning Stadium.
Senior Editor Doug Reilly reports on the Ram football team as they approach Friday night’s match up against Fairfield Warde. The game will be this Friday at 6:30 in Dunning Stadium.
