State Tournament Highlight Reel Posted: A Classic
From Sam Bender on — in the state championship fall of 2009 — Staples has been fortunate to have had a series of superb videographers.
Jacob Weber is the latest — and, like the 2019 team, he did a great job this year.
His weekly reels have chronicled the highs and lows of this season. (Click “Video & Photos” from the menu bar above, then “Video” from the dropdown menu to see them, and more.)
But Week 10 — the 3 state tournament matches against Wilbur Cross, Glastonbury and Trumbull — may be his best work yet.
Jacob’s video (click here to see) show much more than goals. There is defense, the buildup of plays, clever passing — all the skill, action and fun the Wreckers delivered in a memorable week.
The latest reel is 20 minutes. It goes by in a flash. But — thanks to Jacob, and the 2019 team — the memories will last forever.
