Norwalk Tops McMahon Behind Cohen Norwalk Tops McMahon Behind Cohen Norwalk Tops McMahon Behind Cohen
Norwalk Tops McMahon Behind Cohen For Norwalk's baseball team to be a serious challenger in the league and state playoffs, the Bears need pitcher Jonathan Cohen to be at his best. Like he was last night in a 4-0 win over city rival Brien McMahon. Cohen pitched a complete-game three-hitter with 12 strikeouts to pace the Bears over the Senators. He took a no-hitter in the fourth inning, walked three and had the Senators off balance all evening. "He threw like that in the first game of the year, and then struggled for a couple of starts,'' Norwalk coach Angelo Bruno said. "When he's relaxed, he gives a good effort. I told him h…

Milenkevich Wins Fairfield Race Tim Milenkevich runs a lot of races, and wins his share of them. What made his victory in Sunday's Christine's Run It While You Can 5k in Fairfield especially sweet was a new personal best. Milenkevich, 28, of Ansonia cruised to a comfortable victory in 16:06. He averaged 5:12 per mile and won by 23 seconds over Anatolie Vartosu of Stamford. Kevin Woodin of West Haven was third in 17:11. The fast, flat course was perfect for Milenkevich, who says he has focused on speed work recently after a string of disappointing marathons. "I haven't had a good marathon in a while, so I thought I might n…

That may not sound like news, until you realize the Fairfield man underwent a double-lung transplant last November and doubted a day like this would ever come. "It's sort of the ultimate challenge,'' said Sweeney, who is a personal trainer at Equinox Fitness in Darien. "In my head, I always wanted to do something like this and I was never able to." Sweeney suffers from cystic fibrosis, and underwent the transplant on Nov. 10, 2009. Doctors told him to resume exercise six weeks later. Instead, it was only …
