NORFOLK The Granby baseball team is loud and annoying. It smells, too. And on Thursday, the Comets discovered another flaw. They don't take championship photos very well.

Eastern District Granby 13, Lake Taylor 4 Jamie DeAngio got the start in left field on coach Robbie Butler's gut feeling, and the senior came through. DeAngio, batting ninth in the lineup, had three hits and scored two runs as the fourth-seeded Comets knocked off regular-season district champion Lake Taylor on Wednesday at ODU.

Eastern District girls final Maury 3, Granby 1 Sarah Mariano, Cristina Bashara and Lilly Cady netted goals and the Commodores (13-3) cruised to win the district tournament on Tuesday at Old Dominion. Maury, winner of nine straight, used pinpoint passing to run circles around the Comets, who weren't able to sustain offensive pressure besides a few brief counterattacks.
