Enfield Wins First CCC Championship

Enfield broke open a close game with a big third quarter and rolled to a 71-43 win over Middletown to claim its first ever CCC Girls Basketball Tournament championship.  A five-point outburst by Enfield's Danielle Delano in the closing seconds of the first half put Enfield up by six at the break and the Eagles came out strong to open the second half and ran the lead to 22 points by the end of the third quarter.

Delano led the scoring for Enfield with 23 points, five steals and five assists. Mary Baskerville added 20 for the Eagles before fouling out. Brielle Wilborn had 14 for Middletown.

Enfield won the title in its first year in the CCC after winning the NCCC title a year ago. It was the first tournament title for the combined Enfield High School and the second for an Enfield school. Fermi won the initial conference tournament in 2007.  The Eagles ended the tournament at 23-1 after beating Simsbury, E.O. Smith and Glastonbury to reach the final. Middletown was the CCC South White champion and ended with a 21-3 record.  The Blue Dragons beat Southington, RHAM and Hall to advance to their first ever CCC tournament final
