Last week's results: def. Notre Dame-Fairfield 6-1; def. Hamden 1-0.

2. NOTRE DAME-WH (1) 6-1-01172
Last week's results: def. Ridgefield 2-0.

3. FAIRFIELD CO-OP (1)5-0-01035
Last week's results: def. New Canaan 7-5.
The Bottom Line: Led by a three-goal showing from Finn Hoey the co-op passed their biggest test of the season in a wild win against New Canaan.

Last week's results: def Ridgefield 4-0; def. St. Joseph 5-1.

5. GREENWICH 2-2-0718
