Once again, the NVL will have strong representation on Team Connecticut for the 14th annual Governor's Cup against Rhode Island as four league players were selected to the squad this week.
Torrington running back Brenden Lytton will join Ansonia linemen Hakeem Martin and Dylan Vano as well as Chargers linebacker Tyler Wood on the team.
The game will be Saturday, June 30, at 4:30 p.m. at Rentschler Field. More details will be posted about the game in June. Connecticut leads the series, 10-3, and has won nine straight, including a 37-6 thrashing last year.

Congratulations to all four players on making the team, and best of luck to Team Connecticut as it tries to continue the winning tradition of the Nutmeg State.
