• Star receiver Jayden Compton at heart of Windsor football's 'reload' after state title run (greenwichtime.com) — Windsor residents can look for senior receiver Jayden Compton to anchor the defending state champion Windsor High football team as it "reloads" after graduating star quarterback AJ Robinson. Compton's versatility across offense, defense, and special teams, plus his loyalty to staying in Windsor despite college attention, positions him as the program's emotional and on-field leader this season.
