<p>Maury and Granby could almost be mirror images of each other when they meet on December 16. Julius Owens leads Maury, while Jonathan Wilson guides Granby. Both coaches have built strong pipelines through their junior varsity teams and local middle school feeder programs. This season, both teams will lean on experience and execution, and their December matchup will put both to the test.</p>

<p>Maury won the last meeting by 11, but Granby has little reason to dwell on that result. With Coach Wilson bringing a new voice to the bench, the Comets enter the rematch with more offensive firepower. That gives Granby a better chance to dictate the pace and put pressure on the Commodores.</p>
