Norwalks Tom Kriz will coach Trinity Catholic against St. Joseph of Trumbull in the final, now scheduled for 4:30 p.m. Saturday at Fairfield Ludlowe High School.
When Ive been in situations like this, the anticipation is always the hardest part, Kriz said. Id rather play at 6 in the morning than wait around all day.[breakhere]
