Bunnell High School's Jordan Ricketts is this week's News 12 Connecticut Scholar Athlete presented by Colonial Toyota.

The senior captain recently helped the Bulldogs capture the Division 3 boys basketball state title.

Ricketts was named MVP of the championship game.

He's a high honors student determined to continue his academic and athletic career at the next level.

"It's just really a dream come true. All that work you're putting in right now as a kid, you think it's not going to pay off, but it really does pay off," Ricketts said.

It was Bunnell's second-ever state title in boys hoops, and the Bulldogs’ first since 2015.
