The West Haven Seahawks hosted the Stratford Renegades this past week at Veterans Field.

The defense was led by Jaden Spell who led the team in tackles and Jermaine Gibbs and Chris Summers played well.
The 12U Seahawk team (11&12) played its first game of the season with an impressive 31-18 win over a very good Stratford team. Seahawks’ running back Azriel Pizarro had three rushing touchdowns and JJ Lugo and Frank Green added scores. Caden Stanley, Will Cannon and Yusef Turner led the defensive effort for the Hawks.
The 8U Seahawk squad (7&8) lost a heartbreaker, 21-13, to Stratford after a competitive and back-and-forth game. The offense was led by Andrew Cuzio and Jackson Gabriel. Colin Watson and Jayce Jaynes played well on the defensive side of the ball.
The 14U team lost, 27-0, to an explosive Stratford team. The Seahawk flag teams (5&6) played host to Naugatuck and Derby.
