CHESHIRE — Wilton’s boys lacrosse team was filing off the bus at Cheshire when the players and coaches learned Fairfield Prep had taken out Darien on their side of the bracket. And coach Steve Pearsall wasn’t quite sure what kind of effect it would have on his club.
With a disappointing FCIAC playoff exit still fresh in his mind, Pearsall hoped his kids would keep focused on the task of beating Cheshire, another dangerous SCC team, rather than getting caught looking ahead.
Wilton assuaged Pearsall’s concerns right quick.
