-- Top-ranked Westhill came up short in its bid for a second straight state championshop Monday, falling to Conard 4-1 in the CIAC Class LL state championship game on Monday in West Haven.

For the Vikings (23-2), the tone was set in the first inning, when the couldn't score despite getting five runners on base.

Westhill coach Tom Pia accepted responsibility for his team’s base running mistakes. Signs were missed and plays were not executed.

“They were so juiced up. That’s all my fault,” he said.

Pia felt that Conard, unaccustomed to playing deep in the tournament, might have fizzled if his club had scored.

“There’s a thing about playing in a game like this …,” he said. “If we come out and score three or four runs, they go, ‘Whoa geez, this team from down there must be real,’ but Conard played a great game. They have a great coach and they were disciplined at the plate. They did what they had to do to score runs.

"After we don’t score in the first inning and don’t score again because we had another base running blunder, everybody tightened up,” Pia said. “It was like we were in a vice.”

The state Open tennis doubles finals between Fairfield Ludlowe's Daniel Adajian and Reid Andren and Westhill's John Petrini and Brandon Pomerance will be played on Wednesday at 3:30 p.m. at the Yale courts. It was postponed Tuesday.
