All year long, Staples plowed through opponents. And not just on the soccer field, baseball diamond and volleyball court.
The high school’s “Challenge” team — 4 whiz kids who answer rapid-fire questions about every subject imaginable on MSG Varsity — are fresh off their latest manhandling. Tonight (Tuesday, June 8, 6:30 p.m., Cablevision channel 14) they face their stiffest rival yet: Greens Farms Academy.
It’s a classic battle: large public institution vs. small private school. They never meet in athletic competition, so this is the only chance to watch the 2 in head-to-head competition.
And it’s the Connecticut finals.
The winner advances to the regional finals on Sunday, June 20 (4 p.m.). One thing is for certain: A Westport school will be there.
