Linked Up – 9/14/18

Posted on September 18, 2018 by John Holt

Nick Crowle starred for Fairfield Prep and is now a leader for Yale football. Autumn Driscoll – Hearst CT Media.

A family trip interrupted the regularly-scheduled Linked Up. But who says one week can’t include a pair of editions of great high school sports stories? So we publish this edition with some older stories, and then Linked Up will return on Friday with the regular edition to get ready for the weekend. Deal?
