Checking in on: New Hampton Huskies, giant killers

When you think of prep school powerhouses, Dexter Southfield and defending champs Kimball Union are likely foremost in the conversation. And thus you would reasonably think that if a team can beat either of those teams, it should get a mention as well.

But what if I told you there was a team that defeated both of those powerhouses earlier this month? And in back-to-back games, two days apart?

Surely, that team would be considered a contender in the prep school circuit.
