Fairfield PAL 6th-Grade Girls Fall Short The Fairfield PAL Sky sixth-grade girls basketball pitched a shutout in the fourth quarter of Sunday's basketball game against Bethel.

"We have trouble handling the ball on the perimeter right now,'' Sky coach Michael Armstrong said. "Our point guard is out for about a week with an injury, and we're struggling with that right now.

Norwalk Freshman Surprises With Track Milestone Norwalk Freshman Surprises With Track Milestone Norwalk Freshman Surprises With Track Milestone
Norwalk Freshman Surprises With Track Milestone Norwalk High girls track coach Pat Moffet thought freshman speedster Claire Turner might someday challenge the school record in the 600 meters. He was wrong. Turner not only challenged Lauren Ventrella's four-year old record, she also shattered it during Saturday's Fairfield County Interscholastic Athletic Conference meet at Staples High School. Turner blazed around the oval in 1:44.8, wiping out Ventrella's time of 1:47. It was only the second time Turner had run the event. This is her first year running track. "I didn't think I was going to be able to break it this year,'' says Claire, wh…

Greenwich won eight of the 14 matches, including one by forfeit. Trailing 10-9 after four bouts, the Cardinals won the next four, starting with Ryan Whittle at 160 pounds.

The Vikings won several close bouts and even led after matches, but the Cardinals won four straight matches in the upper weight classes and beat the Vikings, 41-27.
