Wilton had lost six straight at home, but on Saturday they dropped their record down to 1-12 to make it seven. They lost 9-1 to the St. Joseph Cadets. The Warriors were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Cadets apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in May of 2024.
As for St. Joseph, the victory (which was their sixth in a row) raised their record to 10-7. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.7 runs on average over those games.
For St. Joseph's part, Connor Fahey spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered only one earned run on four hits and racked up seven Ks.
On the hitting side, Jake Failla was incredible, going 2-for-4 with two stolen bases, three RBI, and two runs. Those three RBI gave him a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Jake Rios, who went 1-for-5 with two runs, one stolen base, and one double.
While Wilton had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair will be back at it again later today.
