Kristen Moss and Steph Moriarty of the Wilton swim team are just two of the athletes anxious to get the fall season started. John Nash – The Hour.
Can you feel that? The fall sports season is coming on like a freight train, and Linked Up is here to get you ready. No national stories in this edition, just Connecticut high school stuff this week. As mentioned in last week’s edition, much of the coverage right now consists of team previews. Rather than try to link to every single preview out there, this edition of Linked Up tries to provide a bit of a cross section of sports and areas, and focuses more on features rather than straight previews. Fans are strongly encouraged to check out all the fine previews of their favorite teams produced by their local media outlet.
