North Branford goalkeeper Allie Augur missed the last Shoreline Conference game with what head coach Pat Kozloski is calling “a lower body injury.” Kozloski would not be more specific when asked, but did say Augur, a senior headed to Boston College next season, should be back in action this week. “She doesn’t want to sit […]
BRANFORD — It had been 33 years since Branford and North Branford last met on the gridiron and not much was different Friday night than the last time the two teams met.

Week 3: North Branford (1-1) at Branford (2-0), 7 p.m. BRANFORD – The border war is back, at least for one night only.

NORTH BRANFORD — The Old Lyme girls soccer team has owned the Shoreline Conference for years.
The Wildcats not only have dominated the regular season, but also won four straight tournament titles. Then North Branford derailed Old Lyme’s drive …
NORTH BRANFORD — Save for a brief stint as a lineman when he was 11-years old, basketball has always been Nick Wright’s thing, not football. He averaged 9.2 points per game as a junior, helping Cromwell’s boys basketball team win a state championship last winter. But as Wright made insane grabs and jukes over and […]

NORTH BRANFORD — There was a time, albeit a brief one, when Allie Augur actually played the forward position on the soccer pitch.
