August 29, 2010 in Bill Gonillo 5, FCIAC Schools, Player of the Week by admin
It’s official: The FCIAC Football Blog is back for the 2010 season. Just like Brett Favre. Blog founder Tim Parry was guilted into bringing it back to life, and found the resources (and hopefully the sponsorships) to make it happen. Read the rest of this entry →
December 11, 2009 in Player of the Week, St. Joseph by timparry
St. Joseph junior running back-linebacker Tyler Matakevich is the Fairfield County Player of the Week for the CIAC championship game weekend.
With the Cadets unable to throw the ball in extreme wind conditions at Ken Strong Stadium in West Haven, Matakevich delivered St. Joseph a CIAC Class SS championship game win. Matakevich ran for 11 yards on 31 carries and two fourth-quarter touchdowns in the 14-4 win over Montville.
Matakevich was also solid on defense, helping the Cadets hold Montville to just a field goal.

December 4, 2009 in Player of the Week, Staples by timparry
It’s unanimous: Staples running back Matt Kelly is the Fairfield County Player of the Week for his CIAC Class LL semifinal performance in his team’s 31-28 win over Xavier.
Kelly carried the ball 25 times for 225 yards and had touchdown runs of 9, 54 and 3 yards. Kelly countered the Xavier running attack of 6-foot-2, 210-lb. running back Julian Hayes by answering the call of duty whenever Xavier got itself back in the game.

December 2, 2009 in Bridgeport Central, Player of the Week, Trinity Catholic by timparry
Trinity Catholic cornerback Vince Carter and Bridgeport Central defensive tackle Ernest Wiggins are the co-Fairfield County Player of the Week recipients for their performances on Thanksgiving Day.
Carter had three interceptions against Wilton, including two returned for touchdowns on back-to-back defensive plays. The touchdowns came just 17 seconds apart, and were good for 54 and 36 yards.
Wiggins tied a CIAC record for most sacks in one game with six in the Hilltoppers’ win over Harding. Wiggins’ feat also broke the FCIAC record of five sacks in one game, set by Central’s Trevardo Williams in 2006 and matched later that season by Andrew Kennedy of Staples.
