The Staples boys soccer team tied New Canaan 0-0 today in a defensive battle. New Canaan owned the first half, but the Wreckers came back after intermission to outshoot the Rams 11-3.
Staples even fired a shot at the final buzzer, but to no avail.
“It was a fair result,” said head coach Dan Woog. “We always have great matches with New Canaan, and today no one got the break that decides a match like this.”
Staples, now 6-2-1, hosts Wilton on Monday. The Columbus Day affair begins at 4:15 p.m. It will be preceded at 2:30 p.m. by a dedication ceremony for a garden honoring the late Sharon Dobbs, a longtime soccer volunteer, at the base of the Loeffler Field scoreboard.
