Had a mini doubleheader of sorts Saturday. I was originally assigned to cover St. Joseph high football, but when that became a laugher rather early, I headed to the soccer field where the Lady Cadets were facing off against Ridgefield high in the CIAC Class LL State tournament.
First, the Cadets defense was unstoppable as they defeated Staples High, 50-0.
St. Joseph High’s Alex Pagliarini tackles Staples’ running back Henry Beck behind the line of scrimmage Saturday.
Next was CIAC class LL quarterfinal soccer:
St. Joseph High’s Anastasia Kydes works for position while Ridgefield high’s Grace Michalowski defends during their CIAC Class LL tournament quarterfinal match.
Ridgefield defeated St. Joseph, 2-1, to advance to the semi-finals.
