NORTH HAVEN — With the way both Orange’s Mike Concato and North Haven’s Chandler Andrewsen were pitching, runs were going to be at a minimum Wednesday night. Concato and Andrewsen locked in a pitchers’ duel for seven innings, knowing any mistake could be costly.

It turns out those mistakes were made by the North Haven defense.

Four North Haven errors led to a pair of unearned runs as Orange Post 127 defeated North Haven 3-0 in American Legion Zone II action at DeMayo Field in North Haven.

NORTH HAVEN — Wednesday night’s girls’ volleyball contest between North Haven and Amity featured two teams coming from completely different directions.

Amity entered having lost seven of its last 11 matches after a quick start to the season while the Indians had won five in a row following a slow start.

The beauty of sports is records can be thrown out the window with the final outcomes decided on the playing surface.

Such was the case at North Haven High where Amity defeated the Indians 3-2 after squandering a 2-0 lead.

Sacred Heart Academy could be just hours away from clinching its first SCC Quinnipiac Division title in school history. The Pacers can do so by winning, or tying, Hamden, the defending champion, at home at 3:45 p.m.

North Haven wrapped up the SCC Oronoque last night. Guilord can clinch the SCC Hammonasset outright with a win or tie against Foran tonight. That leaves the SCC Housatonic with Amity, Shelton and Cheshire all still in the hunt.
