Dressed for success

Schalick’s Weber may have been “out of uniform,” but his game was the perfect fit as he leads Cougars to Salem/Cumberland Challenge title

By Al Muskewitz
Riverview Sports News

CENTERTON — The more he thought about it, given the results he’s seen it produce, the more inclined Schalick golf coach Sean Collins would be to allow Jaxon Weber to play the remainder of his high school career “out of uniform” as it were.

It was easy to find the Cougars on the Centerton Country Club golf course Monday morning in their black polos with the interlocking “SC” stitched on the left breast. But you wouldn’t at first blush be able to tell Weber was a part of it.

He came to play in a plain white Under Armour polo and khaki shorts. And he wore it well, firing a best-ever 4-over-par 75 to win medalist honors and lead the Cougars to the Salem/Cumberland Challenge team title.

“I will allow it,” Collins said. “I didn’t even realize it until we went up for the picture. There are coaches who are much more detail-oriented than me, I’ll say that.

“I don’t even know I would have noticed if my (athletics director Doug Volovar) hadn’t pointed out the school just bought those shirts for the other three. I want him to be comfortable. I want to him win. So, if it’s the non-matching shirt that’s what gets him to win, I’m for it … We might all wear white Under Armour next year.”

Weber wasn’t trying to make a fashion statement or have his own diva moment on the course. Neither of his team shirts were available when he got up Monday morning so he just put together the first outfit that worked.

“It was in the wash, so I couldn’t wear it,” he said. “So, I had to improvise.”

Ironically, it was the same outfit he wore last year when he won the Group sectional title as a sophomore.

“That’s definitely the shirt he should be wearing,” Collins said. “He should wear that more often. He should wear it under his soccer jersey, whatever other sport he’s playing.”

Weber grabbed a share of the lead with a chip-in birdie from just off the green at 13, then fell out when teammate Anthony Sepers birdied 14 to go to 2-over. He rose back to the top of the leaderboard after Sepers’ wedges failed him on his final two holes, but thought he might have lost it altogether with his own bogey at 17.

Sepers double bogeyed 16 after dumping his 173-yard approach shot into the left greenside bunker and then taking two shots to get out and then bogeyed 17 — his final hole in the shotgun start — after duffing a delicate chip from just left of the green. His day started with a bogey on 18 after his approach shot bounced off flagstick and ricocheted off the green.

“It was kind of a bummer because it’s cool to win anything and I’m a competitor, but it was the best round I ever played (76),” said Sepers, who broke 80 for the first time Sunday with a 79.

While all that was going on with Sepers at the end, Weber parred 18 to finish even par on the back and one shot ahead of his teammate, but he still had to wait it out in the clubhouse. Cumberland’s Nicole Tarquinio also was at 4-over with three holes to play. She left a long birdie putt on the lip at 12, then fell out of contention with a triple-bogey 7 on her next to last hole and bogeyed her last to finish fourth in the co-ed event.

“It was nice,” Weber said. “After the front nine I didn’t really think I was going to do that good and then I got on the back nine and started going on a streak, so it kind of pushed my tempo up. After the bogey on 17 I was like it might not happen, but I’m still shooting really good. 

“I knew I was shooting even on the back so if I kept doing what I was doing I knew good things were going to come. Even if I had gotten second place I still shot my best round of golf ever.”

Weber, Sepers and Michael Nelson (82) all posted their best 18-hole scores ever in the round and the Cougars won the team title by 24 shots over Woodstown. The Wolverines were led Erich Lipovsky, who finished third with a 77.

Pennsville softball rallies twice from two-run deficits, but comes up just short in a third attempt; Woodstown baseball holds off Collingswood; includes tennis, golf, lacrosse results

PENNSVILLE – With the type of lineup Pennsville softball has built to get to this season no deficit is out of reach. But sometimes the well just comes up dry.

The Eagles came back from two-run deficits twice Wednesday and were on the verge of doing it a third time in the seventh inning, but their bid to either walk it off or keep it going came up just short and they lost to Haddon Heights 8-7 to end a nine-game winning streak.

The Eagles erased deficits of 2-0 and 4-2 to tie the game at 2-2 and then take a 6-4 lead after five innings. The Garnets went back up 8-6 in the seventh and for one of the rare times this season, Pennsville couldn’t catch up.

“That’s something we talked about,” Eagles coach Beth Jackson said. “It’s a dangerous life to live. You get all these hits and score all these runs and then you’re making mistakes in the field, you can kind of get away with it, but sometimes, at some point, that might end.

“You’re not going to always have all those hits. You might run into a really good pitcher. You might only squeeze out one or two runs. You’ve gotta be up to defense. You’ve got to play well and not give the other team outs and not give them extra outs in the field.”

Sophomore Ruby Caviston gave the Garnets a 2-0 lead in the first with the first of her two home runs, but the Eagles tied it on Mackenzie Widener’s two-run single in the second.

Caviston’s second homer gave the Garnets a 3-0 lead in the fifth and they added another later in the inning on a ball that got under third baseman Savannah Brewer-Palverento’s glove. This time, the Eagles answered with four in the bottom of the inning to take the lead.

The two tying runs scored when Kylie Harris, the state’s hits leader, hit a ball that stayed down and through on Heights second baseman Kayla Kellogg. Brewer-Palverento tripled home Harris with the go-ahead run and Brewer-Palverento scored on a passed ball.

The Garnets answered with four in the sixth for their third two-run lead of the game. 

Both Jackson and junior infielder Avery Watson had “absolute confidence” in the Eagles being able to come back again – even when they got down to their last out. They were behind four times during their winning streak and had no trouble overcoming those deficits.

“I have no doubts in us at all,” Watson said. “With the way our energy was and how we’ve been playing recently I had zero doubts that we could come back, even at the end (with) two outs I didn’t have any doubt in myself and nobody had any doubt in me.”

Watson kept the inning alive and got the rally started with a single to left. Mackenzie Widener kept the line moving with a single and Reagan Wariwanchik singled home Watson to make it a one-run game. Widener went 3-for-4 with two RBIs.

“Facing a really good team like that, our energy was high all game and that kept me going,” Watson said. “Going into the seventh, I really wanted to win this game; we all really wanted it. 

“I wanted to get anything out there. I wanted to just poke a ball out there if I had to. I hardly remember what I did, my adrenaline was pumping so much.”

Now, the Eagles had the tying run at second and winning run at first, but the game ended on a comebacker to the circle.

The loss stung, of course, but it was hard for Jackson to be angry. She called the game “a great measuring stick” for her team and how it compares to the other SJ Group I contenders Heights plays regularly in the Colonial Conference.

Despite the loss, Pennsville (11-3) remained the No. 1 team in the South Jersey Group I power points standings. Haddon Heights (6-2) moved into the No. 1 spot in South Jersey Group 2 after the win.

“You go out there and you’re swinging and you put it all on the line and walk away,” Jackson said. “Even with what we had with the loss you can still be proud, if you go out and give it 110 percent and you play your good game. Sometimes you come out on the short end of the stick; unfortunately, that’s just a part of the game. From today’s loss I want them to take the positive into tomorrow.”

The Eagles play their fourth game in four days Thursday against Gloucester Catholic in a big TCC Classic Division game.

KINGSWAY 10, WOODSTOWN 2: Lila Bowling’s leadoff homer in the second inning gave Woodstown an early lead, but the Dragons (7-0) answered with three in the third and put a competitive game out of reach with five in the seventh. Ava Snyder gave up three hits and struck out 12 over six innings for the top-ranked team in the South Jersey Group 4 power points standings.

CUMBERLAND 19, SALEM 2: The first 16 batters off the bus for the Colts reached safely and 12 scored to decide this one. Lizzy Pflieger had two run-scoring hits in that first inning and finished with three hits and three RBIs. Salem had three hits – a double by Isla Bohn and singles by Kyla Henderson and Rylee Doerr. 

SALEM COUNTY BASEBALL
Woodstown 3, Collingswood 2

Rocco String homered on the first pitch of the fifth inning for what was at the time was an insurance run that ultimately became the winning run 

It was his first homer or the season and eighth in 203 career at-bats.

Woodstown starter Aaron Foote was perfect through three innings before that Panthers broke up the gem with the first of three singles in the fourth inning that produced their 1-0 lead. 

The Wolverines rallied to take the lead in the bottom of the inning on Tommy Tucci’s sacrifice fly and a bad throw by the pitcher on Lucas Fulmer’s grounder. String extended the lead in the fourth.

Foote gave the Wolverines 5 2/3 solid innings and Michael Valente came behind him with 1 1/3 innings of perfect relief. They ended the game on a hard-charging play by shortstop Tucci, who snagged a chopper over Valente’s head and threw on to first in the same motion for the final out.
