The New Canaan Chargers had a great weekend, going 2-0. They began on Friday night with a tight game against Stamford Young Timers. The Chargers maintained a lead throughout most of the game, but it was tied up with a minute to go.

However, Phoebe Mellick came through in the clutch with a basket that, coupled with strong last minute defense, clinched a 14-12 win. In the second game, the Chargers won a little more comfortably against New Fairfield, leading 8-3 at halftime before pulling ahead in the second half in a 33-13 win.
