Dine out for Thanksgiving in Norwich, but make reservations now

Want the turkey and pie without spending Thanksgiving morning peeling potatoes and watching the oven?

NFA football routs Fitch to capture ECC Division I regular season crown

It’s a banner year for the Norwich Free Academy football team. NFA captured the Eastern Connecticut Conference Division I title with a convincing 35-7 victory against Fitch on Friday at Dorr Field in Groton. “Once they settled in and played our game, we took over,” Wildcats coach Dylan Schroth said. “And that's what we’re capable of doing. Sometimes we just have to believe in ourselves.” Leading 8-7 at halftime, NFA got a momentum-changing play from sophomore Nasjir Henry, who took the second-half kickoff 65 yards for a touchdown. Henry had initially appeared to be tackled but there was no whistle. Henry had rolled on top of a defender before racing to the end zone. “That was a huge spark,” Schroth said. “We talk about willpower. He wasn’t down and he didn’t hear a whistle and kept moving and changed the game. It was an incredible play.” NFA’s defense staked its claim as the best in the ECC with a dominant performance spearheaded by linemen Jasiyah Succes, Deyvi Perez Guzman, and Cameron Bell-Snow, linebackers Terance Brown, Remo Iozzia, and Cayden Alves, and defensive backs Radley Gonzalez, Ny’rell Ross, and Henry. Gonzalez and Ross both came away with interceptions. “The defense was
