The Wilton Energy Commission was formed 15 months ago, charged with promoting resource conservation, energy efficiency and renewable resources in Wilton’s public buildings, businesses and homes.

And apparently it’s doing just that.

At the Board of Education meeting Monday night, Michael Lindberg, commission chair, announced the state had designated Wilton a Connecticut Clean Air Community in September, giving the town a three-kilowatt series of solar cells valued at $30,000.

Fullback Mike Cortese scored three touchdowns as Trinity Catholic defeated host Wilton, 21-14, in the teams' annual Thanksgiving Day rivalry game this morning.

The Warriors finished the season with a 6-5 record.

Wilton took a 7-0 first-quarter lead on Vinnie Cannon's 29-yard TD pass to Scott Young. The Crusaders (7-4) tied the game on their next possession and then went ahead on their first series of the third quarter. Cortese's third touchdown pushed the lead to 21-14 with under three minutes left in the game. Wilton then blocked a punt and pulled within a touchdown as Cannon connected with Sam Sherman on a 12-yard scoring pass with 1:09 left. But Trinity recovered Wilton's onside kick and ran out the clock.
