The University of Connecticut men’s and women’s basketball teams are often among the top programs in the country.
Meanwhile, Staples High School’s boys and girls teams are both undefeated.
Go, Wreckers and Huskies!
The boys rout some of their toughest opponents by 30 or more points.
The girls recently knocked 2 teams from the unbeaten ranks.
The other day, photographer John Walker was at the Wreckers’ gym for a boys game.
Though only a freshman, John has a great eye for action. Here’s a look at some of his shots.
