Ansonia quintet tops Blue Ribbons in tight finish
Jason Wright's Ansonia basketball team, slow to start the season, upset Bridgeport's Blue Ribbons 29 to 26 in a tense Interstate league clash. Norman and Muller powered Ansonia, while Reich, Schwab, and White sparked the Blue Ribbons rally, but a late Wassmer jumper and a final Ansonia foul basket sealed the win before a rain-soaked Colon Field crowd.
