The Staples High School field hockey team today edged rival Darien 1-0 to win the state L championship.
Staples senior Abby Najarian redirected a shot off the stick of Christine Taylor for the lone goal with 5:55 left in the second half.
It was the second straight year that the Wreckers faced the Blue Wave for the title. Last year’s final ended in a tie with both teams being named co-champions.
Today’s game was played in Wethersfield.
