Westport defeated Redding-Easton, 41-18, and Weston, 34-18.

Against Weston, Claire Meehan returned from an injury and added speed, toughness and depth to an already formidable squad. Julia Brower, Grace McGinley, Morgan McWhirter, Charlotte Rossi, Rachel Seideman, Olivia Troy, Virginia Gerig and Mary McGee made contributions in both games.

Westport plays Mohansic on Friday and tips off against undefeated St. Theresa of Trumbull on Sunday.
