Instead, they represent the margin of victory in each game for the undefeated Ridgefield boys basketball team, which ran roughshod over its opponents in the first half of the season.
(8-3) will try to hand the Tigers their first loss on Tuesday when the Crusaders visit Ridgefield (10-0) in a blockbuster matchup.
Kurt Steidl scored 24 points and grabbed nine rebounds as the Tigers drilled a good Danbury team 69-44 on Friday to remain unbeaten.
Once again, Ridgefield showed its balance with four players scoring in double figures. Jeff Racy scored 14 points, Pat Racy 12 and Seth von Kuhn 11.
Trinity Catholic struggled somewhat in the first half, losing to New London in the Northeast Christmas Classic, then dropping conference games to Greenwich and St. Joseph.
However, this is still a solid team led by 6-foot-5 swingman Jason Boswell, who transferred in from national power St. Patrick in New Jersey.
The Crusaders also have a talented point guard in junior Schadrac Casimir and a force inside in seven-foot-1 sophomore center Pascal Chukwu.
Trinity Catholic appears to have righted the ship and is coming off routs of Darien and New Canaan last week. The Crusaders drubbed New Canaan 86-43 on Friday.
Ridgefield, which has not yet to allow any opponents to reach 50 points this season, climbed one spot to eighth in this week's New Haven Register top 10 media state poll. Trinity Catholic is ranked 14th.
