Sheehan Outslugs Bloomfield to Win Football Title

TRUMBULL, CT — A track meet erupted at the CIAC Class S football championship game at McDougall Field Saturday. When the smoke cleared, the highest-scoring championship game in state history ended with Sheehan High School capturing the title by a 64-33 margin over defending champion Bloomfield.

A 28-27 score at halftime favored the Titans by a point, but Bloomfield quickly regained its lead early in the third quarter. That lead was short-lived, however, as Sheehan ran off 37 unanswered points to pull away and earn the school's second state football crown, and first since 1985.
