Justin Brachas threw five innings on Saturday, the right-hander is back on the hill today. The Indians are hoping Brachas (8-0) can get them into a Class M state championship game this weekend and so far, he's done the job.
Montville scored two runs in the first inning and another in the third and now owns a 3-1 lead over North Branford through four innings.
Tyler Contillo drew a one-out walk and Brachas followed with a single. The two runners advanced on a balk and Kyle Holland brought home both with a single to center. The Indians added another run in the third when Contillo reached on an error, moved to second on Brachas' second single of the day and scored on a Holland base hit.
North Branford (14-9) scored its only run in the fourth on a single by pitcher Danny Esposito, a double by Sage Leonard and a sacrifice fly by Marc Notile.
The Montville-North Branford semifinal is just one of six semifinals that the Norwich Bulletin is covering today.
St. Bernard and Somers are also playing a Class S softball semifinal in West Haven. That game is scoreless through three innings.
