The Bridgeport Central Hilltoppers will hit the road for the first time this season to challenge the Ludlowe Falcons at 6:00 p.m. on Friday.
Bridgeport Central is leaving town to face Ludlowe after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. Bridgeport Central was dealt a 48-6 loss at the hands of Enfield on Saturday. The Hilltoppers just can't catch a break and have now endured 11 defeats in a row dating back to last season.
Meanwhile, Ludlowe was fully in charge on Friday, breezing past Norwich Free Academy 53-7 at home. Given the Falcons' advantage in MaxPreps' Connecticut football rankings (they are ranked 33rd, while the Wildcats are ranked 96th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Among those leading the charge was Grant Stupak, who threw for 204 yards and three touchdowns on only 15 passes.
Ludlowe wouldn't let Norwich Free Academy keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force three fumbles. It was truly a group effort as Sebastian Guzman, Carlo Noecker, and Will Dunn picked up one apiece.
Bridgeport Central lost to Ludlowe on the road by a decisive 31-12 margin in their previous meeting back in September of 2023. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of Ludlowe's Ryan Tompkins, who rushed for 82 yards and two touchdowns. Now that Bridgeport Central knows the damage he can cause, will they be able to stop him this time? There's only one way to find out.
