NewCanaanite.com Athletes of the Week: Cali Brannan and Alex Hutchins

The NewCanaanite.com Athlete of the Week is sponsored by Baskin-Robbins, Connecticut Sandwich Co., Joe’s Pizza and Mackenzie’s. Congratulations to Cali Brannan and Alex Hutchins for being named NewCanaanite.com Athletes of the Week. It’s quite rare that a freshman makes a significant impact on a high school varsity team. That being said–there are few freshmen like Cali Brannan. The newest Rams running sensation has led the Girls Cross Country team in all of its meets this season, including a fourth-place finish at Tuesday’s event in Greenwich in which 5 teams participated.
