The East Haven baseball team began the 2022 spring season by playing a road game against Fairfield Warde on April 2. The Yellowjackets took an 8-1 loss versus the Mustangs for an 0-1 start to the year.

East Haven is returning to the ballfield with Head Coach Butch Johnson this year. Last season, the Yellowjackets finished with a record of 5-12 and took an 8-0 defeat to Berlin in the first round of the Class L State Tournament.

Boys’ Lacrosse

The Branford-East Haven (Bfd-EH) co-op boys’ lacrosse squad was on the road to face Sheehan for its 2022 season opener last week. On April 2, Bfd-EH traveled to Wallingford to take on the Titans and took an 8-7 loss in the contest.

Bfd-EH is coming off of a season that saw the team post an overall record of 6-10. Head Coach Jim May’s club qualified for the Class L State Tournament and took a 7-6 loss against Newington in the qualifying round.
