Day Two of the Group I Championships brings Salem County two more state champions – Schalick’s Jordan Hadfield (1600) and Woodstown’s record-setting 4×800 relay; county produces 5 champions total

SOMERSET – From the minute they were put together right before the sectionals last May, it was days like this the Woodstown 4×800 relay team has been training for.
The quartet of Jacob Marino, Karson Chew, Cole Lucas and Josh Crawford has won a lot of races, broke a bunch of records and even won a state championship in the 12 months they’ve been together. But what they did Saturday in the Group I championship meet at Franklin High School took their legacy to a whole ‘nother level.
They won the Group I boys title for the second straight year, but this time set the meet and state Group I record while blowing away the field. Their 7:59.15 broke the old record set by Shore Regional in 2017 by seven-tenths of a second and were waiting for runner-up Hasbrouck Heights at the finish line, winning by more than 13 seconds over teams that pushed them last year.
“It wasn’t just like a win for us, it really showed how far we’ve come,” said anchor Crawford, who won the 800 individual title the day before. “Not that we could just win the state meet like we did last year, but really blow them out of the water. It was just a great day that we’ve been training for for weeks and weeks.”
“We’ve definitely grown and learned from last year to this year,” Chew added. “We’ve definitely made our statement that we wanted to make.”
The Wolverines’ relay team was one of two repeat state champions Salem County produced on Day Two of the meet. Schalick’s Jordan Hadfield defended her girls 1600 title, winning in a time of 5:01.16.
County athletes brought home a total of five state titles over the weekend. The top two finishers in each event qualified for Wednesday’s Meet of Champions at Pennsauken. Several other non-winners, like Lucas (800), Pennsville’s Connor Ayars (javelin) and Penns Grove triple jumper Bryan Garlic, qualified for wild cards.
The Wolverines went into the 4×800 maybe a little sore from Friday’s events but were confident about what they were going after and ran what Chew called a “perfectly smooth” race. All four runners went sub-60 on the first lap of their legs and all were around 1:02 bringing it home. Crawford called it “definitely the best performance” they put out to date.
“We came in knowing we were going to win,” coach Reggie Teemer said. “It was a matter of how dominant we were going to be.”
Like a Ferrari against a Volkswagen. Marino set the tone with a 59.90 out of the gate and completed his leg in a best-ever split 2:01.94. Chew followed with a 2:00.71 to establish the lead and as Teemer said, “it was over from there.”
Lucas, the lone senior in the group, stretched an already big lead with his 1:59.21 and Crawford brought it home in 1:57.27. By the time the baton got to Crawford, the Wolverines were racing against the clock in pursuit of the meet record.
“We came into this thinking we can do this, we can break this state record, we can hit this state championship again,” Chew said. “We came in thinking let’s give it our all and let’s see what happens and we’re very happy with how the result came out.
“Last year going into the state we thought we could win it and everybody did their job and we won it. This year, we were in some individual events and another relay, but this 4×8 is definitely the pinnacle of our team. We like to call our team the ‘Middle Distance University of Salem County’ because all of us are 800 runners, so it’s definitely one of our favorite events. It’s great to see my guys so happy about it and it’s great to get that championship done again.”
As strong as their run to the title was, it did miss one mark. The Wolverines were hoping to run a time fast enough to qualify for the New Balance Nationals later this summer, but came up just short of a 7:58 provisional time. That will be their focus at the Meet of Champions.
Chew and Crawford also ran legs on the Wolverines’ 4×400 relay team that finished second to the Camden team that ran in the Penn Relays, but they still qualified for the MOC. With his win in the 800 Friday, Crawford is qualified for three events in Pennsauken and “most likely” will run all three if the schedule allows.
“He had a great weekend,” Teemer said of Crawford.

Down to the wire
Salem’s Parker, Woodstown’s Crawford, Pennsville’s Morris all win state track titles, Parker on last jump of the day, Crawford at the tape, Morris in tiebreaker
By Al Muskewitz
Riverview Sports News
SOMERSET – Talk about cutting it close.
Salem senior Anthony Parker has known the disappointment of being a No. 1 seed and not being able to get the job done too many times. It looked like it was going to happen to him again in Friday’s Group I state meet at Franklin High School here, but on his last jump of the night, literally the last jump of the event, he reached back and delivered a gold-medal winning effort.
Parker, the No. 1 seed in the Group I boys long jump, won the event with a last-chance leap of 22-feet, 5-inches, passing the two jumpers who left him in danger of not even qualifying for the Meet of Champions on their final jumps.
“It feels great,” Parker said. “All the other times I’ve been seeded first for states throughout my four years and my track career I’ve never won state. This is the first time. It feels great. I’m blessed.”
Actually, all three Salem County Group I state champions Friday took their wins down to the wire. In addition to Parker winning on his final jump, Woodstown’s Josh Crawford held off Metuchen’s Eric Schleif at the wire to win the boys 800 and Pennsville’s Megan Morris won a tiebreaker over New Providence’s Ilana Kornacki to take the girls pole vault for the second year in a row.
Crawford ran a 1:53.44 and beat Schleif by 16-hundreths of a second. Teammate Cole Lucas was third.
Morris and Kornacki both cleared 10-6 and missed at 11-0, but Morris won the gold when Kornacki missed her first jump way back at 9-0.
Parker, who is still undecided on where he’ll run in college next year, has been seeded No. 1 in his specialties entering the state meet at least four times in his Salem career.
The first time was last year in the outdoor 110 hurdles and he didn’t make it to the finals. In this year’s indoor championships he was listed first in the 55 hurdles and finished second. He’s also seeded No. 1 in the 110 hurdles here Saturday, but a right hamstring injury that affects his ability to pull over the hurdle (but not the long jump) will keep him from competing.
“It feels great (to finally deliver),” he said. “When I’m seeded first and I’ve got that mindset I’m first, I’m going to go win it and then I don’t, I get down on myself. I’m pretty hard on myself. All the coaches were telling me the whole meet to get out of my head and go jump, go have fun, remember why you came here and why you’re doing it.”
It still wasn’t easy. Glassboro freshman Alex Adeleye bumped Parker’s 21-9 from the lead with a 21-11 on his final jump. After waiting all day to compete, Parker had just one more attempt to get it back. He rose about the pressure and the noise and nailed it.
“This is his first moment where he definitely rose as the favorite, kind of just controlled it almost 90 percent of the time where in most cases he’s had to work his way up,” Rams coach David Hunt said. “It’s hard to perform when everyone expects you to win. When people don’t have that pressure on them it’s like they’re playing with house money. Everyone was coming after him. So to be able to hold that spot, to win it as the favorite for him was a big step. That is the first time he’s been able to do it.”
“It’s a lot of pressure, but, honestly, I think it’s better for me that way,” Parker said. “When I jumped my PR, 23-9, it was also my last jump. I think I jump better under pressure.”
Pennsville’s Morris successfully defended the pole vault title she won last year but conceded it was harder the second time around.
For starters, there was the stress of meeting the expectations she had for herself. And the field was so close any of the top five could have won it. It was so stressful she almost didn’t watch Kornacki’s last attempt at 11 feet that would have determined the champion.
As it was, Morris won because Kornacki had missed her first attempt at 9 feet, a height Morris passed to start at 9-6.
“All three of my jumps were pretty clean, but that 11 I’m just missing it,” she said. “This was honestly one of my stronger days. I wouldn’t say it’s my best, I think the Salem County Meet was my best, but this is probably top two.
“Leading up to it I thought I was going to be really nervous at the actual meet because I was nervous these two weeks leading up to it, and then when I got there all the nerves kind of went away.”
Truth be told, through all the stress and intense competition she did have a little extra incentive to repeat.
“My brother made a bet with me that if I won again he’d get us all Texas Roadhouse,” she said. “Right when I won I went to him and said I guess you owe me Texas Roadhouse.”
The top two finishers in each event are guaranteed a spot in next week’s Meet of Champions at Pennsauken, although several Salem County athletes are in contention for wildcard spots to complete the field.
Pennsville’s Connor Ayars finished fourth in the boys javelin, but his 172-10 is expected to earn a wildcard spot.
Schalick’s 4×100 relay team along with Cougars David Stewart (400 hurdles) and Jordan Hadfield (girls 3200) and Woodstown’s Lucas (800) all finished third and will be contenders for wildcards.

WOODSTOWN – The lessons Rob Hildebrand learned playing baseball for a legendary coach have stayed with him long after he hung up the spikes. He reaches back for them when he needs them and Friday they helped his Woodstown softball team take a South Jersey playoff game from its biggest rival.
If the bats are running a little cold and it’s getting late in the game Hildebrand learned from Lee Ware, you’ve got to find a way score some runs. The Wolverines manufactured three runs in the late innings, including one off a key double steal in the sixth, to get around a strong pitching performance by Schalick’s Addi Shimp and score a 3-1 victory for a spot in the South Jersey Group I semifinals.
“I played for legendary coach Lee Ware,” Hildebrand said. “He won championships and won division titles scoring runs with not the best talented players. We don’t have that, we have talented players, but when you have games when you’re just not scoring for whatever reason it is you’ve got to have those (plays) in your back pocket.
“We’ve been working things like that, other plays too we haven’t had a chance to implement, but I knew as soon as we had that first and third opportunity, I saw the looks on their faces that said this is a chance we have to do something. It was something I was always raised up to do.”
The Wolverines (14-7) now await the winner of Monday’s Audubon-Cape May Tech quarterfinal. If top-seeded Audubon wins, the fourth-seeded Wolverines go there Wednesday. If Cape May Tech pulls the upset, they will host.
Woodstown won the first two meetings between the Diamond Division rivals this season relatively comfortably, but on this day Shimp and the Cougars gave the Wolverines all they could handle.
Schalick took a 1-0 lead in the third inning after the Wolverines fielded a sacrifice bunt along the third base line instead of letting it roll foul, putting two runners in scoring position, and played a grounder to third for an out and allowing Taylor Brown to score instead of perhaps freezing the runner or cutting down her down at the plate.
Hildebrand explained he’d gladly go for the out in those situations even if it meant giving up an early run because he was confident they’d score plenty to win. Another lesson from the master.
The way Shimp was pitching it looked for a while that might be the only run of the game. The Schalick pitcher scattered six hits and worked her way through traffic it created until the defense let her down in the late innings.
“It’s kind of frustrating because we knew we could hang with these guys and we did and our defense had a little miscue,” Schalick coach Rick Higinbotham said. “That’s frustrating, especially when Addi pitches so well.”
Woodstown pitcher Leah Clark went toe-to-toe with Shimp. She gave up only two hits and struck out eight, including the 100th of her career on the first of her two punchouts in the fourth inning. She fanned three in a row after the Cougars’ leadoff hitter reached and ended the game on a strikeout.
“Obviously it’s a huge goal, but I didn’t really think of it very much,” she said. “I was definitely getting a little nervous in the beginning (of a tight game) but I have to put my nerves aside and just relax on the mound and throw it in and just do what I can to get the outs.”
The Wolverines won the game with two runs in a sixth inning that was a master class in softball strategy.
Woodstown had runners Gracie Hitchner and Avery Battle at the corners with one out after the Cougars threw away the force on Clark’s grounder to short. Both coaches called their players over to talk about the way they were going to play the inevitable double steal.
Kendall Young showed bunt and courtesy runner Battle took off for second. Schalick catcher Alex Shimp threw all the way through and the Cougars couldn’t make the throw back quickly enough to get Hitchner tearing down the line from third.
“We have a play that we put in place and it was in place, we didn’t execute the way we should have,” Higinbotham said. “You teach the girls how to do things but they have to see things for themselves and make adjustments and we didn’t make that adjustment. There were a couple things we look for and they didn’t.”
“My hope,” Hildebrand said, “was if they tried to get an out, we were getting a run. If they tried to get the run, we’re going to have second and third. It was a win-win.”
Hitchner knew she was coming to the plate as soon as she got to third.
“He told me to,” she said. “Mr. Hildebrand told me and Kendall the play, that she was going to fake bunt, but keep the bunt there a little longer and Avery was going to go and on the throw above the pitcher’s head I would go for it. We had it all planned out. We did a whole practice about it.”
The Woodies added an insurance run two batters later when Shyann Higinbotham beat the shift her father put on and poked an RBI single into short centerfield.

Pennsville 14, Pitman 4
PENNSVILLE – Pennsville coach Beth Jackson was a little concerned about playing Pitman for a third time, especially since the Panthers handed her team one of its four losses early in the season and the last meeting was a nailbiter, but the Eagles put those fears to rest with three runs in each of the first two innings and opened a 10-2 lead after four.
Graillyn Weber went 3-for-5 with two RBIs and Avery Watson had three RBIs to lead the Eagles’ offense. Watson had a two-run double in the second inning and the walk-off RBI single with two outs in the sixth. Weber had an RBI triple in the fourth.
Kylie Harris had two hits and two RBIs, Sawyer Simmons had a pair of hits and Mak Widener had two RBIs.
Savannah Brewer-Palverento battled through the day to give the Eagles a complete game. She gave up nine hits, just two earned runs and struck out three.
“They played well,” Jackson said. “The energy was great. They hit the ball. They took advantage of some mistakes Pitman made out in the field.
“The reality is anybody can win on any given day. It doesn’t matter what seed you are, it doesn’t matter how your regular season went, you have to win that game in hand. These games regardless of who you’re playing are different in the playoffs and you have to take each game seriously.”
The second-seeded Eagles (21-4), the winningest Pennsville softball team since 2014 (22-5), will host third-seeded Haddon Twp. in the semifinals Wednesday. The 2015 team also won 21 games.

ELMER – When Evan Glaspey saw the memo informing him Schalick’s South Jersey Group I quarterfinal game with Glassboro was being moved to the Elmer Little League complex, he knew it was going to be a good day.
It’s not that the sophomore second baseman dislikes playing on the Cougars’ on-campus field, there’s just something about the Little League complex that makes him feel comfortable.
Glaspey has never thought of himself as a power hitter, but Thursday he hit his second homer of the season and a double in the Cougars’ 7-2 win. He also made a nifty diving stop in the field to secure the final out of the game. Both of his homers have come here on the complex’ William R. Higgins Field.
“I love playing here,” he said. “I’ve played here for a long time. Used to play here for my travel team. Played here for a lot of years. It feels like home because of all the years I’ve been playing here.”
With the win, the Cougars (20-2) matched the single-season school record, set by the 1992 team that went 20-5 and lost to Emerson Boro in the state finals. They now host sixth-seeded Woodstown (16-10) in Tuesday’s semifinals.
It would be Cougars’ coach Sean O’Brien’s preference the game be played at their on-campus field.
Glaspey was in the middle of his U.S. History class when word came that the game was moving to Elmer after athletics director Doug Volovar and an army of parent volunteers worked all morning to get the field in shape.
The Cougars are now 4-0 on the field this year having beaten Woodstown, Salem, Buena and Glassboro. Glaspey is 7-for-12 with seven RBIs, two homers and six extra-base hits in those four games.
“I was in class and then I got a ring so I was like can I check my phone real quick and I checked it and it said we were playing here,” he explained. “I knew it was going to be a good day because coming here is always just fun.
“I think we were anticipating not playing at all because the field was really mucky and we got pictures of this field this morning and it was really bad. Surprised they got it that good.”
Glaspey’s three-run homer to left — just about the same place as his first one against Buena — highlighted a four-run sixth inning that put the game out of reach. It came right after Lucas D’Agostino singled home an insurance run.
Until the big inning O’Brien was a little concerned, calling it “a little stressful.” The Cougars had to come back from deficits of 1-0 and 2-1 to take the lead, but they also missed several opportunities early to take control.
The Bulldogs reached Schalick ace Luke Pokrovsky for a run in each of the first two innings. Pokrovsky got the run back in the first with a mammoth leadoff homer O’Brien called the longest he’s ever seen in this park, but it wasn’t until the fourth they took the lead for good on Ricky Watt’s short sacrifice fly and Evan Sepers’ go-ahead double.
The Cougars loaded the bases with no outs after Pokrovsky’s homer, but Glassboro pitcher Gavin Dillard struck out the next three hitters to kill the threat. They also left two runners in scoring position in the fifth.
“We weren’t doing the situational hitting that we’ve done most of the year,” O’Brien said. “We had opportunities to get guys in and we just weren’t doing it and you can’t do that against good teams, especially young teams that have hope. You’ve got to try to get on them early. If not, they’re tough, they’re going to make you pay.”
And the Bulldogs challenged in the top of the sixth. Pokrovsky was lifted with two on and two out after reaching his pitch limit. Jamari Whitley walked his first batter to load the bases, but put out the fire and proceeded to record a four-out save.
Even when Pokrovsky is a little off, he’s still better than most. He allowed only two hits in his 5 2/3 innings, walked four and struck out 11. His game-tying homer, punctuated by a majestic bat flip, was his 10th of the season and 22nd of his career. The Bulldogs intentionally walked him each of his next two times at bat.
“He’s had that treatment especially when the playoffs come around,” O’Brien said. “Both his brothers had the same treatment, so he got the same thing. I’m comfortable with that. If they’re going to walk him then we’ve got Ricky following and Jamari. I’m good with it. I’ll take it.”

UPPER CHICHESTER, Pa. — As soon as the ball left the bat Woodstown second baseman Lucas Fulmer was sure it was going into centerfield to put the tying run in scoring position with one out and the meat of Pennsville’s order coming to the plate.
And then the baseball gods smiled on the Woodies.
Pitcher Jack Holladay instinctively reached down and somehow caught a piece of the ball with his glove. It deflected right to Fulmer on the smooth infield carpet and he proceeded to turn a double play with shortstop Tommy Tucci to slam the door on an incredible 2-1 upset of third-seeded Pennsville in the South Jersey Group I quarterfinals.
“That’s one of the best feelings and one of the best ways you can get end it,” Holladay said. “We’re always going to fight. They always count us out, but we always find a way to beat them in the playoffs.”
It was the second year in a row Woodstown eliminated Pennsville in the playoffs and sends the sixth-seeded Wolverines (16-10) to second-seeded Schalick (20-2) for Tuesday’s sectional semifinal.
Holladay carried a 2-0 lead into the seventh inning and was two outs away from giving the Wolverines their second straight complete-game playoff shutout. Then Stevie Fatcher walked, moved to second on a passed ball and scored on Mason O’Brien’s single to right to end a string of 18 consecutive scoreless innings by Woodstown pitchers and make it 2-1
That brought leadoff man Logan Streitz to the plate. Streitz hit a ball sharply up the middle that Holladay managed to get a piece up. It went straight to Fulmer, who collected it off the carpet infield, flipped to shortstop Tommy Tucci for the force and Tucci fired on to Rocco String at first to complete the twin killing.
It was the 12th double play the Wolverines have turned this season.
“Once I knew it was coming right at me I knew I had it,” Fulmer said. “I knew I was going to get it to Tucci, he was going to get to first and we were going to end the game. At first I thought it was going to be a base hit up the middle, and off Jack’s glove it was like a blessing. It came right to me, just turned two and we ended the game. It’s a great win.”
“Emotions were definitely getting the best of me,” Tucci said. “I was like screaming at Lucas to throw the ball, get the ball to me. He made a perfect flip, I got it and just let it loose.”
The game was moved out of New Jersey to the all-weather MSI Sports Complex for a playable surface and scheduled for noon to accommodate the Woodstown prom later that evening.
Given the reputation of Pennsville’s skin infield, one wondered if the Wolverines would have turned the double play had the game been played on the Eagles’ campus field. Woodstown coach Marc DeCastro gave a qualified maybe. Pennsville coach Matt Karr said “probably” because the deflection slowed the ball down enough for Fulmer to make a play on it.
It was the second year in a row the Wolverines beat Pennsville in the South Jersey Group 1 quarterfinals after the Eagles beat them in the regular season. In the first meeting this year Holladay lasted only the first inning. He was much sharper Thursday, holding one of the most dynamic lineups in South Jersey to just three hits and striking out seven.
“I felt pretty good,” Holladay said. “I trusted the guys behind me and I knew they had my back so I had their back and I was going to do anything to win this game. I knew I wasn’t good that first time I faced them, so I knew I had to be better today and I thought I did pretty good.”
The Eagles (15-9) got their leadoff batter on only once and when they did put a runner in scoring position through the first six innings it was always with two outs and Holladay quickly extinguished the threat.
“We had a couple nice hits early, but we just couldn’t string them together back-to-back,” Karr said. “Jack did a really good job keeping us off balance and pitched a really good game.
“When they had the pitching visit there with Jack I came down to Logan and said he’s going to try to get ahead, be ready, be aggressive, be ready to swing the bat and he smoked it up the middle. If it doesn’t hit Jack’s foot it probably goes into center for a single and the tying run’s 180 feet away and we have the string of seniors coming up.
“But that’s baseball man. Sometimes things bounce your way off the foot and sometimes they don’t and when you play in tight games like this sometimes it’s just not your day.”
The Wolverines did not have a complete game in 24 regular-season games this season, but they have thrown two in two playoff games.
“The thing about Jack and Aaron (Foote, the first-round pitcher) is when you have a plan they can execute that plan,” DeCastro said. “They aren’t just going up there and throwing and hoping because they have good stuff. They make you beat them. We had good plans these last couple games to attack hitters and up until Jack got a little tired at the end it was relatively flawless.
“I know (Pennsville) were for all intents and purposes a better team up until this point so we had to be really, really, really close to perfect. Outside of the baserunning stuff … this is the best game we’ve played all year. We played as close to as good as we can play against them in this spot.”
The Wolverines had some good at bats against Pennsville ace Luke Wood but still struggled to get anything going. Wood scattered six hits and struck out six. He picked off three runners in the first two innings.
“Luke gave us every opportunity to win,” Karr said.
Woodstown scored its only runs of the game in the third inning on a bases-loaded walk to String on a 3-2 pitch and a wild pitch with Caiden Spinelli at third and Tucci at the plate.

WOODSTOWN – Early in the year when Rob Hildebrand was putting together his Woodstown softball team a lot of people wondered why he had so many players on the roster.
They got their answer Tuesday.
The Wolverines had only 12 available players for their first-round game in the South Jersey Group I playoffs, but it was more than enough to put away Glassboro 8-4 for their fifth win in a row and eighth in their last nine games.
“We were missing some players today because of class trips and stuff, we have prom this week, we had a lot of distractions, but our core group of girls just buckled down, beared down, and got the job done,” Hildebrand said. “It wasn’t pretty but got it done.”
The win sets up a third meeting this season with Schalick – but the first in Woodstown – in Friday’s quarterfinals. The Wolverines (13-7) won the first two, most recently May 6 in the Elmer Classic.
The Wolverines have 20 players on the roster, but the other eight, including four starters and a top player off the bench, were off on the freshman/sophomore class trip to Hershey Park that was scheduled and paid for long before the Wolverines rescheduled their playoff game to beat Wednesday’s expected bad weather.
Hildebrand told them to enjoy the trip, that there’s more to life than softball, and the team would make do.
“We have depth,” Hildebrand said. “A lot of people were saying in the beginning of the year you’re keeping too many people on the roster. Our girls, from top to bottom, 1 through 20, I’m confident any single one of them can be in there and do it because they do it in practice every single day. There are so many girls that are battling close for certain positions that I know put them in and they’re going produce.
“It’s not like I foresaw that for any specific reason, but that’s part of the reason why you do. Everybody is such a team player you know they might not get the amount of at-bqts they thought they should have during the season but when it’s their turn they’re putting the team first.”
Among those who made the biggest impact with their chance to play were middle infielders Shelby Drummond and Avery Battle. Drummond went 2-for-3 with an RBI double in the Wolverines’ four-run first inning and Battle’s two-run single in the fifth extended their lead to 8-4. All nine batters in the lineup had at least one hit.
Drummond, a sophomore, had 13 at-bats this season coming into the game. Battle, a junior, had five in two years.
Leah Clark pitched a complete game, giving up five hits, one earned run and striking out 11, including the side in order in the seventh. She also had two hits.
PENNSVILLE 11, WILDWOOD 0: The second-seeded Eagles broke it open with an eight-run third inning and Savannah Brewer-Palverento faced just two batters over the minimum in a five-inning one-hitter with 11 strikeouts.
The Eagles sent 12 batters to the plate in the big inning. Two runs scored on Kylie Harris’ hard single. Three scored when the Warriors misplayed Elizabeth Fleming’s bases-loaded fly to right.
Harris, Brewer-Palverento and Avery Watson all had two RBIs in the heart of the order. Watson went 3-for-3.
SCHALICK 4, PALMYRA 3: The Cougars (14-4) walked it off on Emily Miller’s triple and overthrow leading off the eighth inning. It was Miller’s second hit of the game. She gave the Cougars a 2-1 lead with an RBI single in the third..
Palmyra forced extra innings with a run in the top of the seventh. It was the third time they tied the game. The Cougars took a one-run game from Palmyra in their final regular-season game five days earlier.
Addi Shimp went the distance in the circle, giving up just one earned run and striking out 10, to get the win.

WOODSTOWN – Marc DeCastro admits he’s “pretty conservative” when it comes to the way he works his Woodstown pitchers during the regular season. They get enough pitches to get their work in and then that’s enough so to not burn them out for when they’re needed the most.
That’s the regular season. The playoffs are a different animal and require a different approach. If a pitcher needs to go long to keep the Wolverines in a game, he’s going to go long and hopefully that earlier conservative tact helps him through it.
DeCastro let Aaron Foote loose Tuesday afternoon and the senior right-hander delivered a brilliant complete game, outdueling Haddon Twp.’s Tyler DeCastro in a 1-0 victory that got the Wolverines through the first round of the South Jersey Group I playoffs and a Thursday noon rematch with Pennsville.
Foote went seven innings for only the second time in his career and threw a career-high 103 pitches. He gave up three hits, walked two and struck out one. It was Woodstown’s first playoff complete game since Ben Foote’s five-inning shutout of Cape May Tech in the 2022 opener and their first seven-inning complete game since Lucas Pendergast’s three-hit shutout of Penns Grove in the 2021 opener.
DeCastro, the Woodstown coach’s nephew, threw 113 pitches in six innings for the Hawks (8-18). He gave up four hits, walked or hit seven and struck out seven. He was coming off the 110-pitch limit in the first 6 2/3 innings of a combined no-hitter in his last start
“We’re pretty conservative in how much we let people throw and part of the reason for that is so that they aren’t worn down by the time they get to this point,” Woodstown’s DeCastro said. “If I stretched him to 100 (pitches) three other times that’s, what, 150 (extra) pitches, another game. Maybe he’s tired in the sixth inning as opposed to feeling relatively strong.
“In the regular season I really don’t push people. In the playoffs, you don’t worry so much about that. You make a decision based on what you’re looking at and what’s best as opposed to we’ve got a game in six days and I want to make sure he’s not throwing too much in this game or that game.
“Once you get to the playoffs everything you do in the regular season is out the window and you just try to do what you think there is to win a game. If that means he throws 100 pitches on that day, that’s the whole point of it.”
Going into the game, Foote had gone five innings or more just twice in six previous appearances this season and thrown at least 70 pitches only twice. His high-water marks were six innings in a 6-2 loss to Cinnaminson and 75 pitches over 4 2/3 innings in a 4-1 loss at Overbrook.
The only other time he’d gone seven innings in his career was last April against Glassboro (75 pitches). The most pitches he’d ever thrown in a game was 86 in a five-inning stint at Florence as a sophomore.
“As good as that was I would bet you Aaron would say he wasn’t as sharp as he has been when he’s let up four or five runs,” DeCastro said.
He was right, in a way.
“I wish the strike percentage was a little higher,” Foote said. “I got off to a little rough start, the adrenaline probably got to me, then I settled in. I wish the curveball was a little more accurate, but I was getting squeezed.”
DeCastro said Foote was “not in any situation” Tuesday where he was coming out for anything other than he needs to come out. He was close – one batter to reach his 110-pitch limit – and DeCastro did make a mound visit after the Hawks got a hit in the seventh, but he never got the hook. He was pretty efficient throughout largely by locating his fastball. He had 39 pitches through three innings, 82 through six. In contrast, the Hawks’ DeCastro threw 47 pitches through the first two innings and 99 through five.
“There aren’t very many people I don’t take out in the seventh inning with a guy on base and one out,” DeCastro said. “We had everyone available, we have everyone open, we had everybody ready to go there … so that shows the kind of trust and faith I have in him. If he’s going to get beat you’re going to beat him (because) he’s not going to beat himself.”
“I was begging to stay in,” Foote said. “When he started walking out I was saying ‘keep me in, keep me in’ … because I knew I could finish it.”
The only run of the game came in the first inning when Ty Coblentz doubled home leadoff man Caiden Spinelli, who was hit by a pitch and stole second. The Wolverines loaded the bases after they scored, but DeCastro wriggled out of it with a force at the plate and two strikeouts. They had bases-loaded with two outs in the fourth, too, but Coblentz popped out to end the inning.
The Wolverines (15-10) had 12 baserunners total, seven that got into scoring position, but managed only the one run, which increased the pressure on Foote to stay sharp. After the first inning, HT’s DeCastro faced only four batters over the minimum the rest of the game.
“When the only run came from the first inning and it’s the seventh I knew I had to do my job because we can’t rely on our offense that much,” Foote said. “We’re just not a hitting team. We have to rely on the defense to do all the work. I went out there knowing I had to do it.”
The family dynamic underscoring the game wasn’t lost on either DeCastro although both did a good job keeping that part of it in check. The same couldn’t be said for Tyler’s dad/Marc’s brother, who was a little too passionate about the proceedings and got sent to the parking lot by the plate umpire in the late innings.
For his part, Tyler said he focused on keeping the day as routine as possible.
“Of course there were nerves, it was a playoff game,” he said. “But at the end of the day it’s the same game no matter who the opponent is, who the other coach is, what the predicament is. You have to go out and compete
Uncle Marc, meanwhile, said he purposely didn’t have contact with his nephew in the run-up to the game, but he did have a brief message when they met in the handshake line.
“The uncle part of me wanted to tell him good luck but the right thing to do was let him be in whatever mindset he was gonna be in and any contact from me could have altered that,” he said. “He deserved to go out there and pretend I didn’t exist, so I wasn’t going to do any of that.
“I told him in the line I couldn’t be any more proud of him. If you said you were going to win this game 1-0 (and) Tyler’s going to throw six innings I would be really happy because it meant we got what we wanted and he didn’t do anything wrong, which is exactly what happened.”
And should make for some interesting conversation the next time they all get together.
“It’s going to be something to talk about at the dinner table,” Tyler said. “I know all my uncles, my dad, they love talking about baseball. I know this game is going to be great for them to talk about.”
PENNSVILLE 19, SALEM 2: The Eagles’ fifth straight home win served a dual purpose: It got them through to the second round of the tournament and clinched their fourth straight TCC Classic Division title and first outright since 2023.
All 18 players on the roster got a plate appearance and 15 reached base. They jumped out with six in the first inning and broke it open with 11 in the second. Three pitchers combined for a two-hitter.
“Great team effort today,” Eagles coach Matt Karr said. “It’s always a goal to win the division and today was our fourth straight and nice that it was an outright title this year. It’s also cool to be able to get all 18 varsity guys an at bat in it, too.”
Starting pitcher Cohen Petrutz and Jeff Wagner both went 2-for-2 and had four RBIs for Pennsville. Connor Starn and Luke Wood both had two RBIs and Mason O’Brien had two hits. Andrew May homered for Salem in the fifth inning.
The Eagles (15-8) now host county rival Woodstown in the quarterfinals Thursday at noon. The early start time accommodates Woodstown’s prom later that evening.
“The magic number is now five,” Karr said. “Anything good or bad that has happened means nothing. Right now our focus is on Woodstown Thursday afternoon.”
SCHALICK 9, WILDWOOD 0: Three pitchers combined on a one-hitter and the second-seeded Cougars had enough offense to coast to an opening-round victory and match the most wins by a Sean O’Brien-coached Schalick team.
Luke Pokrovsky went 3-for-4 with three RBIs. His two-run double in the fifth closed the scoring and was his school-record tying 28th of his career. Lucas D’Agostino, Enrico Hatz and Eli Cummings all had two hits.
Jamari Whitley, D’Agostino and Cole Hartley combined on the one-hitter. They took a no-hitter into the sixth inning.
The Cougars (19-2) now host Glassboro in the quarterfinals Thursday. O’Brien’s 2021 Schalick team went 19-5.
