• Meet the huge offensive line powering Naugatuck football (ctpost.com) — Naugatuck High's massive offensive line is powering a run-heavy attack that helped the Greyhounds rally past Holy Cross in their season opener. The veteran front, anchored by several college-recruited seniors, paved the way for over 260 rushing yards and a late game-winning drive. They'll be tested again Friday night when Naugatuck hosts Notre Dame–West Haven.
