Cape Elizabeth’s football team had their season come to an end after a 35-21 loss to Leavitt during the Class B State championship game at Fitzpatrick Stadium. The loss was nearly the only bad mark on an otherwise stellar season that included a dominating regular season and two wins over their rivals from Mountain Valley.
