Wolverines win three events, finish top 3 in two others to win boys title in Woodbury Relays; Schalick sets girls SMR meet record

By Riverview Sports News

WOODBURY – Woodstown’s boys won three relays and finished top three in two others to win the Woodbury Relays Saturday.

The Wolverines won the 4×800, 4×400 and sprint medley relays and scored 44 points to edge runner-up Camden by six points. They also finished second in the 4000 distance medley relay and third in the 4×200.

Schalick’s boys placed second in three events and finished third in the team standings, one point ahead of Glassboro.

“Winning at the historic Woodbury Relays was a huge accomplishment for our program,” Wolverines coach Reggie Teemer said. “Not only because it was the in school history but I know the amount of work these guys have put in over the years.

“A win like this was not due to overnight success. There are great teams in our division that we could not overlook so we stayed locked in the entire meet. These guys compete for each other. Epitome of team.”

Woodstown’s 4×800 team of Cole Lucas, Joshua Crawford, Jacob Marino and Karson Chew was denied a spot in the Penn Relays despite posting a qualifying time, but took it out on the Woodbury field with a winning 8:18.18.

The 4×400 team of Chew, Crawford, Lucas and Kyle Reitz that is headed to Penn won here in 3:25.89. And the spring medley team of Chew, Reitz, Crawford and Lucas won in 3:35.93.

In the individual field events, Pennsville’s Connor Ayars won the boys javelin with a winning throw of 173-feet, 2-inches.

Salem County teams won two events on the girls side.

Schalick’s sprint medley team of Gia Martellacci, Phoebe Alward, Jaelynn Jarmon and Jordan Hadfield set the meet record in 4:14.39, one second off of qualifying for the nationals. The old record was 4:16.78, set by Penns Grove in 2014.

Woodstown’s 4×800 team of Samantha Sterner, Sarah Seiden, Abby Marino and Lilian Norman won its 10:05.86.

For the county teams Saturday was a final tune-up for Tuesday’s Salem County Championship Meet at Pennsville and, for some, a Penn Relays appearance Thursday.

Nothing given

Spina and Holladay’s combined no-hitter, Palverento’s perfect game highlight the start of the sports week in Salem County

BASEBALL
WOODSTOWN 6, OVERBROOK 0:
 Dante Spina and Jack Holladay combined on the Wolverines’ first seven-inning no-hitter in recent memory. The two pitchers struck out 10, walked two and faced only two batters over the minimum. Holladay retired 13 in a row before the Rams reached on a two-out error in the seventh. Rocco String went 3-for-3 and Ty Coblentz had three hits and two RBIs to lead the offense.

PENNSVILLE 16, WILDWOOD 2: Chase Burchfield went 3-for-3 with a homer and six RBIs and Connor Starn homered as the Eagles came from behind to win their third in a row. They spotted the Warriors a 2-0 lead. Cohen Petrutz drove in three runs. The Eagles have outscored their opponents 52-2 during their winning streak.

SCHALICK 11, PENNS GROVE 1: Jamari Whitley went 3-for-4 with two RBIs and pitched four strong innings with nine strikeouts as the Cougars improved to 5-0. Evan Sepers had three extra-base hits.

SALEM 9, CLAYTON 6: Andrew May’s two-run single highlighted a four-run sixth that broke a 5-5 tie and led the Rams to victory. May had two hits and four RBIs. Chase Davis and Eithan Longo had three hits apiece. Davis struck out 11 in 6 1/3 innings on the mound.

SOFTBALL
Schalick at Penns Grove

PENNSVILLE 16, WILDWOOD 0: Savannah Palverento retired all 15 batters she faced in a five-inning perfect game. The Salem CC signee struck out five and made big pitches on a few 3-2 counts to avoid any walks. The Eagles supported her with 15 hits. Kylie Harris and Graillyn Weber both had three hits, a homer short of the cycle. Harris and Sawyer Simmons had four RBIs and Avery Watson had two hits and three RBIs. Watson also made a nice defensive play up the middle on the next to last play of the game to keep the gem alive.

OVERBROOK 5, WOODSTOWN 3: The Rams broke a 3-3 tie with two runs in the sixth inning, then turned back a Wolverines threat in the seventh. Lila Bowling had three hits for Woodstown. Ellie Wygand and Hannah Hitchner had two apiece.

CLAYTON 27, SALEM 0: The Clippers erupted for 19 runs in the third inning and held the Rams hitless.

WOODSTOWN RELAY DENIED: The Wolverines’ boys 4×800 relay team made a gutsy effort to beat the qualifying standard for the Penn Relays, but they learned Monday the 8:08 they posted in challenging conditions Saturday at Father Judge wasn’t strong enough to make the field for the historic event. The Wolverines have qualified for the 4×400.

Mission accomplished

Salem boys return to scene of 2024 disappointment, win West Deptford Relays, Parker boys MVP, Schalick wins girls meet; Schalick boys win in Bridgeton; Woodstown 4×800 qualifies for Penn Relays

By Al Muskewitz
Riverview Sports News

WEST DEPTFORD – Anthony Parker and the Salem High track team came into the West Deptford Relays on this damp and dreary Saturday with something to prove.

They went into the meet last year expecting to go home with the trophy. Instead, they lost to Audubon by two points, the difference being the baton never getting to Parker in the 4×100 relay. 

The Rams considered it a major disappointment and it burned within them for the next 12 months. Coach David Hunt thought of it as a coachable moment regarding the importance of quality practice prior to a meet, which that week was not.

They returned to the scene Saturday and this time all the exchanges were clean. They won the meet going away, scoring 113 points, 27 better than the runner-up Green Wave. Schalick won the girls division comfortably ahead of runner-up Pennsville.

“We came into the meet and we only had one thing on our mind and that was getting the trophy,” Parker said. “We lost last year to Audubon and I don’t think anybody was happy with that, so we came in with a good mindset and we got the trophy.

“During the race I was thinking about last year, but I’m like this year it can’t happen again. I know as soon as I get the baton we’re going to win.”

The Rams won seven events in the tough conditions and Parker was the Most Outstanding Athlete of the boys meet for the first time. He posted the best individual time in the 400 hurdles (58.31) and anchored the winning 4×200, shuttle hurdle and revenge-minded 4×100 relays. He picked up the 4×200 when weather washed out the jumps.

They ran 45.47 in the 4×1, 1:36.92 in the 4×2 and 1:13.78 in the shuttle hurdles. Jelani Beverly ran in two of the relays with him, but for the most part they were three sets of teams.

“He did real good today,” Hunt said. “Right now we’re battling the weather so everyone’s times aren’t necessarily where they want them, but as far as his competitiveness coming into the season it’s been great. He’s doing a lot of very good things.

“He went up to Boston (for the New Balance Indoor Nationals), so he never stopped; we went straight from indoor into spring. The difference in him this year has been this role with the team. Other people are responding to his leadership versus last year where he was kind of just a member of the team. He’s shown a lot of growth in that area.”

On the girls side, Schalick won four events and finished second in four others. Pennsville won three events and both mixed events.

Schalick boys repeat

BRIDGETON – The Schalick boys won eight of 14 events in challenging conditions and ran away with the Bridgeton Relays for the second year in a row. The Cougars scored 118 points, lapping Division I runner-up Cedar Creek. David Stewart won the long jump and triple jump and ran a leg on the winning 4×100 relay.

It was their second win in as many weeks, having won the small schools division at Buena the week before.

“We love bad weather; our guys are 4-0 in bad weather,” Cougars coach James Turner said. “They look at it as an advantage because they are willing to push through it and do what needs to be done.”

Woodstown’s 4×8 takes
it down to the wire

PHILADELPHIA – Woodstown’s decorated boys 4×800 relay team posted a time good enough to qualify for the Penn Relays Saturday when it won the race at the Father Judge Relays in school-record time. The Wolverines came in with an 8:08.09, four seconds under the qualifying threshold for the historic race, in their last chance to qualify.

The team of Karson Chew, Cole Lucas, Jacob Marino and Josh Crawford won the race by three seconds over Caesar Rodney High School of Camden, Del. They are expected to learn if their time is among the top 35 to make the Penn Relays field Monday. The race is April 24. The Wolverines had qualified for the 4×400 earlier in the year.

Shortly after helping his 4×800 relay team hit the mark, Marino finished seventh in the boys mile (4:59.78). He is three weeks removed from having his appendix removed. Samantha Sterner finished seventh in the girls mile (5:53.33).

Woodstown stands up to adversity, Gloucester City for much needed win; includes all of Thursday’s reported Salem County action

GLOUCESTER – Whether it was a team they had beaten every time they played before or one that had taken them down in walk-off fashion in last year’s playoffs, it didn’t really matter. The Woodstown baseball team was in need of a feel-good win and got it Thursday night.

The Wolverines were skunked by the two best pitchers in Salem County in their last two outings, but they got things back moving in the right direction with a 4-2 win at Gloucester City. That’s the same Gloucester program that broke their hearts with two runs in the bottom of the seventh of last year’s South Jersey Group I title game.

“I think there was a sense of relief,” Woodstown coach Marc DeCastro said. “I told them yesterday it doesn’t matter when it happens almost every team goes through a point where it becomes easy to kind of splinter and blame things and people and everything but yourself, and then there are times when the teams that can be good take those opportunities and grow from them.

“Whether we won today or whether we didn’t, to me, it was a little irrelevant. We’re still not ready to be a really good team just yet, we’re still learning how to do that, but what I wanted to see was how we handled each other and handled the game, and I thought they did a really good job.

“I saw some things that showed me there were some people who were looking to get it on the right track as opposed to just let it go where it was. I was happy with the way we approached the game. I’m obviously glad that we won, but first and foremost I wanted to see whether we could handle ourselves or I had to be the one to handle things. I was glad to see they were able to do that.”

Unlike their last two games in which they fell way behind in the first inning, the Wolverines (3-2) scored a run in the first and never lost the lead. Tommy Tucci singled in a run in the first and doubled one home in the third – both with two outs — to give them a 2-0 lead and Blake Bialecki gave them some necessary insurance with a two-run single through a drawn-in infield in the seventh.

Tucci and Bialecki both had two hits in the game. Rocco String, Ty Coblentz and Caiden Spinelli also had two hits apiece. String and Coblentz both scored twice.

“The win was needed bad,” Bialecki said. “We’ve been struggling and it is definitely a part of the season where we could either fall apart as a team or come together as a team. Today we responded very well to the adversity we have been facing.

“Coach said that if he had to interfere with us fighting the adversity we would struggled with it all season. But today we showed him we can bounce back ourselves. Now he knows that if we face adversity again, whether that’s a stretch of games like we just had or just adversity in a specific game, he knows we can figure it out and bounce back.”

Aaron Foote was the first of four Woodstown pitchers and he got the win. He worked into the fifth inning in his first appearance since the season opener and allowed two hits and a walk while striking out four.

Gloucester staged a rally in the home seventh that looked unnervingly familiar to the Wolverines. The Lions scored two runs and threatened more with bases loaded and none out, but junior Chase Harding came on got the last three outs on a two strikeouts and a ground out.

Although the thought didn’t register at the time with DeCastro, who remains steadfastly focused on the present and future, there were more than a few Wolverines who recalled last year when Gloucester rallied on this field in the bottom of the seventh to snatch the sectional championship game away.

“All game I was having flashbacks to last year’s game,” said Bialecki, a senior outfielder. “We were all really excited for this game because of last year. When they were threatening in the last inning I was really worried it was going to happen again.

“But we were able to pull it off this time.”

And show their coach they can be counted upon in times of adversity.

PENNSVILLE 26, CLAYTON 0: The Eagles got big games across the board. Chase Burchfield, Connor Starn and Mike McClincy all homered, all nine starters had at least one RBI and scored at least one run and three pitchers combined for a no-hitter.

It was the Eagles’ highest-scoring game since they put 29 on Clayton May 11, 2016. In fact, four of the Eagles’ 10 highest-scoring games since 2011 have come against the Clippers.

McClincy went 3-for-5 with six RBIs. The junior catcher got his first varsity hit in his first at-bat and the next time up hit a grand slam, which he told teammates was the first homer he’d ever hit in his life. Starn, a senior, went 3-for-3 with four RBIs and his homer was his first in 149 varsity at-bats. 

Meanwhile, Burchfield went 3-for-5 with four RBIs, Cohen Petrutz went 4-for-4, Mason O’Brien went 3-for-4 and Jeff Wagner drove in three runs.

“It was a big game for the offense,” Eagles coach Matt Karr said. “I was very proud how locked in our guys were. It was cold and they stayed focused through each at bat and their approach to the day was what we expected.”

Logan Streitz, Starn and O’Brien combined on the five-inning no-hitter, each throwing 30 pitches or less. They struck out nine, walked three and hit a batter. 

“They all threw the ball very well, especially considering the conditions and how long they had to sit in between innings,” Karr said.

SCHALICK 3, OVERBROOK 2: Lucas D’Agostino’s two-run double highlighted a three-run sixth inning that broke a scoreless tie and then he pitched the seventh behind the Cougars’ ace to get the save.

Schalick’s Luke Pokrovsky and Overbrook’s Tyler Wood battled for five innings before the Cougars (4-0) broke through in the sixth. Both pitchers went six. Pokrovsky allowed four hits, an unearned run in the bottom of the sixth and struck out 14.

Enrico Hatz and Pokrovsky both had two hits for the Cougars.

PITMAN 11, SALEM 0: One day after their pitchers put together a no-hitter the Rams were no-hit themselves. Pitman’s Jude Engstrom and Kiernan Clark allowed the Rams only two base runners – walks to Terrell Robinson and Andrew May. Nick Watson homered for Pitman and Hudson Rue had three hits and three RBIs.

GLASSBORO 16, PENNS GROVE 2: Joey Tongue and Gavin Dillard both had three hits and Sal Esgro had three RBIs to lead the Bulldogs. The Red Devils, no-hit the day before, were held to two hits – a single by Bristol Scott and Liam Irvin’s RBI double.

SCHALICK 14, OVERBROOK 13: Taylor Brown’s two-out line single brought Ava Lauglin home with the winning run to cap a two-run seventh-inning rally that allowed the Cougars to walk it off. Lauglin was in scoring position after tripling home the tying run.

The Cougars trailed 9-1 in the third inning and tied it 9-9 in the bottom of the fifth on Olivia Vanacker’s bases-loaded walk and Alexa Shimp’s run-scoring fielder’s choice.

The lead changed hands four time in the final two innings. Overbrook went ahead 11-9 in the top of the sixth, but the Cougars rallied in the bottom of the inning to take a 12-11 lead on Addi Shimp’s RBI double. Overbrook took a 13-12 lead in the top of the seventh before the Cougars ended it in the bottom of the inning.

Addi Shimp and Cloe Elliott each had three hits for Schalick. Maddie Brown had three RBIs.

PENNSVILLE 18, CLAYTON 2: The meat and the bottom of the lineup provided most of the damage for Pennsville. Kylie Harris and Savannah Palverento, the Nos. 3 and 4 hitters in the Eagles’ lineup, were a combined 4-for-5 with seven RBIs. The bottom third of the order – Reagan Wariwanchik, Makenzie Widener and Gianna Evans – were a combined 8-for-9 with seven RBIs. Wariwanchik and Evans both had three hits, Evans and Widener each had three RBIs.

GLOUCESTER 14, WOODSTOWN 1: The Lions erupted for 11 runs in the second inning to send Woodstown to its first loss of the season. Hannah and Grace Hitchner had the Wolverines’ only two hits off Gloucester pitcher Kloi Tighe.

PITMAN 12, SALEM 1: The Panthers pulled away from a one-run game with eight runs in the third inning. Lexi Kostiuk went 3-for-3 with two RBIs and Madison Peek drove in a pair of runs for the Panthers.

GLASSBORO 18, PENNS GROVE 0: The Bulldogs scored seven runs in the first inning and nine in the third.

Robinson, Davis combine for no-hitter, Rams give them a win with 3 runs in eighth inning; includes Salem County roundup 

By Al Muskewitz
Riverview Sports News

PENNS GROVE – Salem baseball coach Eric Fizur had seen enough of his top pitchers giving a strong effort and not getting anything for it. He told the hitters at a most crucial time Wednesday they needed to step up for their teammates.

Rams pitchers Terrell Robinson and Chase Davis hadn’t given up a hit over seven innings, but they were still locked in a tie game. The hitters rewarded them with three runs in the eighth and the Rams locked it down in the bottom of the inning to complete the gem and beat Penns Grove, 6-3.

It was the Rams’ first no-hitter since Evan Biddle threw a five-inning perfect game against LEAP on May 16, 2023.

“It’s a big pick-me-up,” Fizur said. “This was the type of game last year that we would have struggled in that moment, even with good pitching, and found a way to lose. You could see the growth in the team this year. They found a way to go win the game.

“They’ve been throwing amazing since the season started. Chase threw a great game at Wildwood. Even in Holy Cross, we couldn’t put the bat on the ball. Terrell threw four quality innings and kept us in the game, but we couldn’t help him out. I told the kids pre-game we wasted Terrell’s last great outing, we need to have a great one today and pull it out for him.”

Robinson pitched the first 5 1/3 innings. He gave up the Red Devils’ three runs, but only two were earned. He walked five and struck out nine. Davis finished it, allowing just three base runners and striking out six.

The only reason Robinson, a Rosemont commitment who wears No. 42 as an homage to Jackie Robinson, came out of the game in the sixth was he had thrown 110 pitches.

“Terrell threw an amazing game,” Fizur said. “Terrell’s thrown many amazing games. I told him last year I always felt he got the short end of the stick because he had to face the best teams a lot of times. He had to throw against the Pitmans of the world and he never batted an eye, just said I’m going to go do it.

“He said can I start the Penns Grove game? I was like, sure, it’s you’re game, buddy, and he threw a gem. It was a joy to watch him pitch today. Those five innings were beautiful.”

Davis worked out of a bases-loaded jam in the seventh with an inning-ending strikeout, then set down the Red Devils in order in the eighth after the Rams gave him the lead. He threw 49 pitches.

“Chase was supposed to start tomorrow in the game versus Pitman,” Fizur said. “He’s been looking forward to it since I told him, but I said, look, we’ve got to get a win today, you’re the guy right now. I need someone who’s going to go in there who I know can dominate.

“Obviously as a competition Chase was like I want to pitch against Pitman tomorrow, but he understood it was a moment to sacrifice and pull a game out. We didn’t tell him it was a no-hitter, we didn’t want to put that pressure on him, but he came in and stepped up.”

The Rams took the lead in the eighth on RBI singles by Davis, Robinson and Bryce Harris.

“I looked at them and said you’re literally wasting a no-hitter,” Fizur said. “Terrell’s had two starts in a row, he’s pitched phenomenal in both of them and we haven’t come through for him and I just said you’re wasting a no-hitter on these guys right now. We need to go score and end this game.”

SOFTBALL
WOODSTOWN 7, MAPLE SHADE 1:
The Wolverines saved their best for last. Hannah Hitchner’s two-run single capped a seven-run seventh inning that lifted Woodstown to its second win of the season.

Johanna Way singled home the tying run and Gracie Hitchner’s RBI double gave the Wolverines (2-0) the lead for good. Ellie Wygand, Way and Shyann Higinbotham had two hits apiece. Leah Clark held the high-scoring Wildcats to one run, seven hits and struck out eight in the circle.

SALEM 18, PENNS GROVE 4: Isla Bohn and Sasha Reese both went 2-for-2 with three RBIs to lead the Rams’ 18-hit attack. Winning pitcher Rylee Doerr helped her cause with two hits and two RBIs, Julliana Love had two hits and Morgan Fogg had two RBIs. Doerr gave up two hits and struck out 11 from the circle.
