State Playoff Preview
Hillhouse hoping to duplicate 2010 run to Class M title
NEW HAVEN — Je’Vaughn Moore hasn’t forgotten how last season ended.
Despite a solid 7-3 season, the Hillhouse football team failed to qualify for the Class M playoffs.
As a result, the Academics were not be able to defend the championship they won in 2010.
In recent years, anything short of a state playoff berth is considered a disappointment at Hillhouse.

“Most of us know that feeling of how it felt when we found out that we missed the playoffs last year,” Moore said. “We just hate that feeling. That feeling, that motivation, just made us want to come out and get back to the playoffs.”
Part one of that mission is complete.
The road to part two — a state championship — begins tonight when the fourth-seeded Academics face No. 5 St. Joseph in the Class M quarterfinals at 6:30 at East Haven High. Both teams are 8-2.
