CT folks just know that Brunswick, Taft, Loomis, Choate, Avon and Salisbury wouod smoke any CT public school so there’s no point. And before anyone references last years Darien win, that was an anomaly. Anyone who has watched this me teams can attest.
Darien and Brunswick have played 4 times. Brunswick's 3 wins have come by a combined 5 goals (including one in OT where they trailed the entire game). That was no fluke, that's just par for the course between these two. In fact, Darien has had a tougher time with Staples than Brunswick lately.
And it's not just Darien. In 2016 New Canaan blew Brunswick off their home field, sandwiched between two 2 goal losses in 2015 and 2017. They've fallen off since, but even in 2021 a pretty meh NC squad played Brunswick tougher than everyone's anointed pre-season champ Taft.
Also love that you threw Loomis, Choate, and AOF in there as if they've accomplished remotely anything compared to any of the other three. Loomis should be good this year and Choate was good last year -- but by and large those programs have been riding the coat tails of Wick/Salisbury/Deerfield/Taft for the better part of two decades.
