 - With the postseason, comes either the thrill of victory or the agony of defeat. For the West Haven softball team, it experienced the truest agony of defeat Wednesday afternoon.
Unable to hold on to a two-run lead, No. 20 West Haven fell to fourth-seeded Enfield 4-2 in 10 innings in the second round of the Class LL state tournament. With the road loss, West Haven concludes its season at 11-9.

The inability to tack on runs hurt as Enfield evened the game in the sixth. The Westies did not have a runner in the seventh through ninth innings, and squandered a two-out double by Petruzziello in the tenth.
