Darien vs. New Canaan: A rivalry that keeps growing

There doesn’t seem to be anything more important to a Darien resident than beating New Canaan in sporting events each year and vise versa.

The rivalry between the two schools is so heated that both towns strive to come out on top when it comes to the high school sports seasons. It becomes so heated, in fact, that at the Fairfield County Interscholastic Athletic Conference boys’ hockey championship between the two schools earlier this year, a fight broke out among fans in the parking lot after the game.

But why is it that both Darien and New Canaan players and fans have come to put so much emphasis on these games each year?

Don't drink and be merry
With prom this weekend, the top issue on every student’s mind isn’t how they’re going to fit in that dress, or whom they will take as their date or how much the limo is going to cost. It’s the Breathalyzers (the devices that use a person’s breath to measure his blood alcohol level) awaiting them at the front door.

A crew team would complete list of preppy sports at DHS

Darien High School’s long-time rival New Canaan High School has a crew team, as well as many other high schools in the area such as Greenwich High School. But many rowers at DHS are left without a team to call their own, forced to be satisfied with just a club. And without a crew team — can Darien High School truly be considered preppy?

Teen Times staff
The Darien Teen Times is a news source that will bring an entirely new facet to The Darien Times. Until now, the public has heard our voices rather indirectly through the writers at The Darien Times and other news sources. Now, we, the students, have another platform through which we can enlighten the town about what high school life is really like in Darien.
