Special teams also deserves some recognition, posting 12 points in total. The biggest highlight from special teams (and perhaps the team as a whole) came courtesy of Kyle Wicker, who ran a punt back for a touchdown.

Having lost for the first time this season, Wilton fell to 8-1. They gained 202 more yards on the day, but it was St. Joseph that made the best use of them.
