UNCASVILLE, Conn. (January 24, 2011) - Bacon Academy of Colchester has been selected as the Connecticut Sun High School Girls' Basketball Team of the Week, presented by Camaro Signs of Yantic, for the week of January 17-23rd.

Ranked No. 4 in the latest New Haven Register Top 10 Girls' Basketball Poll, Bacon Academy improved to 13-0 last Thursday with a 47-36 victory at perennial Class LL powerhouse Norwich Free Academy. The Bobcats are the only undefeated team remaining in Class L.

This is the fifth season the Connecticut Sun has recognized a Team of the Week. Each winner will receive a commemorative plaque and a congratulatory letter from Connecticut Sun coach Mike Thibault.

The Team of the Week is part of a series of initiatives undertaken by the Connecticut Sun to highlight local high school girls' basketball, where future WNBA stars are already competing. The Sun have also hosted the CIAC Championship luncheon and the four state title games, and the team will recognize all of the teams of the week during a regular season game during the 2011 season.
