Chapanga’s Wins Adult Coed Softball League Championship Game

The Milford Recreation Adult Coed Softball league finished its 2016 season on Sunday at the Robert “Bubba” Carson Jr. Memorial Field at Kaley Park. Chapanga’s took home the championship trophy, winning 16-8 against the Thundercats on Aug. 28.

“We’ve been here before. It feels good to pull it off,” Chapanga’s Mason Tremblay of Wilton said after the game.

The team’s sponsor for the past three years, Chapanga’s Griddle and Grill, closed in July according to its Facebook page. Tremblay said the team would be back next year and probably with a new name.

The Thundercats captured second place, followed by the Boilermakers.

Dana Lunderville of Milford cheered on her brother, sister and brother-in-law who played for the Thundercats. She said she was anxious about the final games, but enjoyed being with her family and cheering on the team.

“This teaches the kids about teamwork, family, and friends,” she said.

Milford Recreation Department manages the league made up of residents from Milford and surrounding communities.

The 2017 season starts in May. Information can be found on the Milford Recreation Department’s website.
