DARIEN — Darien seniors David Evanchick and Christian Alliegro were sitting in the football locker room before the start of their showdown with Newtown on Friday night and two years ago felt like yesterday.
The play they were thinking about, of course, was the Nighthawks’ touchdown pass on the final play of the 2019 CIAC Class LL final — a play which sent Darien home in defeat.
“All we were thinking about was that last play,” Evanchick said. “We need to get that back.”
