UPDATE The Friday night Staples vs Bridgeport Central Fairfield County Interscholastic Athletic Conference (FCIAC) varsity football championship game has been moved to Trumbull, conference officials announced today.
It will be a return visit by Westport’s Wreckers who were 34-0 victors Friday night over Trumbull High School at Trumbull. The 7:30 p.m. championship game originally had been scheduled for Wilton High School.
FCIAC executive secretary John Kuczo announced the move to Trumbull’s McDougal Stadium. He said the FCIAC felt it could draw a bigger crowd at Trumbull, a location that is much more accessible from Westport and Bridgeport.
Wilton can hold 3,600 fans while Trumbull, which has hosted a number of state tournament games over recent years, can handle a capacity of 4,500 to 5,000. But FCIAC also felt it might lose ticket sales revenue because people could watch the game along a fence at Wilton, according to news reports.
Good luck Dan
