NEW CANAAN — It says something about the expectations of a football program when an opening-week two-touchdown victory is treated like a defeat.
Such was the case for New Canaan after last Saturday’s 20-6 win over Trinity Catholic. The Rams didn’t score enough and didn’t dominate enough for a three-time defending state championship accustomed to putting up 20 points in minutes.
STAMFORD — The ball rocketed off of Shannon Stabile’s bat, and whiplashed necks turned toward leftfield to see whether a Greenwich victory that seemed a certainty just three batters earlier was going to be snatched away.
Stamford, sluggish at the plate most of the day trying to solve Greenwich pitcher Jessie Schelz, was trailing, 6-2, when it came to life with four straight hits, the last an RBI single by Nikki Pease that brought Stabile to the plate as the winning run.
Stabile drove a deep fly, but comfort came to the Greenwich dugout and disappointment to Stamford’s as Erin White, with two hits and two RBIs on her ledger, caught it just a few feet from the fence to give the Cardinals a 6-3 win on Thursday afternoon.
