Better than being there

PHILADELPHIA – Before this year, the athletes in the Salem High track program may have been content with just being on the starting line of a big meet, but they’ve been to enough of them now that the novelty of just being there has worn off and the time has come to compete.

And compete they did Saturday in the biggest meet for many of them to date.

The Rams’ boys 4×400 relay team made some school history when they finished third in the South Jersey Small School race at the Penn Relays, winning the school’s first Penn Relays medal in coach David Hunt’s tenure.

The group of Grady Buzby, Jerry Seals, Xavier McGriff and Tim Gregory ran a 3:28.96, finishing third behind Camden (3:21.59) and Deptford (3:21.71). The top five teams win medals. Their time was two seconds slower than the school record they set last week at the Woodbury Relays, but it was just as meaningful considering the venue and the circumstances.

“It’s super significant,” Hunt said. “We’ve been trying to get into these bigger races, we get there and sometimes we don’t always meet our expectations, so to be able to go out and put up those numbers consistently and being able to compete on that stage is a big deal. Woodbury is a big deal, but running the Penn Relays at Franklin Field is a little different.

“I emphasized to them you get to a point everything can’t be about the experience; you’re going to these to compete, not to just be there; anyone can sign up. That’s why we’re doing in. When we go to these meets we need to compete when we’re there, not go to participate, and there’s a big difference.”

“We’ve understood that this season,” Buzby said. “Other years it’s been more like (wishfully) ‘we can make it to states, we can medal at sectionals.’ But now the stakes are higher. We can medal at Penn Relays, we can medal at states, we can go to nationals — another step up – and that’s definitely something we were looking at today. Something to keep in mind.”

All four of the Rams ran 52-second legs. Buzby got them started with a 52.08 out of the gate. Seals followed in 52.28. McGriff ran 51.16 and Gregory brought it home in 52.46.

Seniors Buzby and McGriff were running on the Penn track for the first time. The Rams have a six-man interchangeable rotation for the relay and set the order depending on who’s available and how many events they’ve entered. Buzby didn’t run the race at Woodbury because he was just coming off the 800, but was inserted in the opening leg Saturday specifically for his ability to establish and maintain position in the event’s waterfall start.

“The reason I ran the first leg is because I won’t tolerate being bullied,” he said. “At UPenn it’s special because if you look at the races they have an outrageous number of kids on the track and you have to hold your position in a waterfall start. You don’t get a lane. I take up space and I don’t let anybody bully me.”

McGriff, inspired by watching Olympian Quincy Wilson run a 44.56 split in his 4×4, put on a closing dash in his leg. He took the baton in fourth place, then made a big push to get the Rams into third for Gregory’s final leg.

“The backstretch got me a little bit,” McGriff said. “Once I saw Audubon in front of me, in my head I was like I got him, I’ve got to get him around the curve to get us in a spot, so I picked up the pace and ran past him. I just felt good about that.”

The group didn’t realize they were getting medals for their finish until they saw Hunt around the medals table on their way out. That’s when the real celebration began.

“When we got them he told us we were the first to ever get on in a long time,” McGriff said. “We just got real happy. We were cheering and stuff. We were so happy.”

Schalick’s 4×400 relay team ran in the High School Boys division. The team of Steve Chomo, Jacob Carter, Chase Riley and David Stewart ran 3:32.58 and finished seventh in their race. 

Baseball

VINELAND 3, SCHALICK 2: Nathaya Perez hit a bases-loaded single into center field with one out in the bottom of the seventh, scoring Don Menzoni from third for the Fighting Clan’s walk-off win.

The Cougars, back on the field after their senior trip, tied the game with two runs in the sixth. Bo Schalick scored the first run on a passed ball and Cole Hartley tied it with a two-out RBI single.

Evan Glaspey and Even Sepers both had a pair of hits for the Cougars.

By Riverview Sports News

SEWELL – Region 19 home run leader Nick Slogik hit a pair of three-run homers and Bryson Kirby scattered eight hits as league-leading No. 3 RCSJ-Gloucester run-ruled Salem CC 12-2 Friday.

Slogik hit his first homer off Mighty Oaks starter Pat Seitzinger in the first inning and the second one off Louie Rivera in the fifth. He now has 18 on the season.

The first blast was part of a four-run inning that erased Tyler Hacker’s solo homer in the top of the inning. The Roadrunners (26-9) added two in the third and three in the fourth before Slogik’s second homer put the game in run-rule territory, 12-1.

The home was the only hit Rivera allowed in his 2 2/3 innings of relief. He didn’t walk a batter and struck out two.

Hacker went 3-for-3 for the Mighty Oaks (20-22). Aiden Nestor had two hits.

The Mighty Oaks scored a run in the seventh on Cliff Wysinger’s RBI single.

Kirby struck out 10 and walked one in his seven-inning complete game.

The teams are scheduled to play a doubleheader at the Carneys Point Rec Complex 11 a.m. Saturday. It will be the Mighty Oaks’ Sophomore Day.

Baseball

SALEM TECH 8, CAPE MAY TECH 7: Lucas Clement was awarded home on a throwing error created by his aggressive base running with one out in the bottom of the eighth to help the Chargers complete a challenging week 3-0.

Clement singled and stole second with Cole Sacks at the plate. The attempt to get him at second went into the outfield and he had already reached third when the relay from the outfield went out of play.

The Chargers (7-3) trailed at one point in the game 7-4, but tied it in the sixth on Clement’s bases-loaded walk and a two-run game-tying single by Sacks. They had the winning run at second in the seventh with one out, but couldn’t get it home.

Clement had three hits and three RBIs to lead the Chargers’ offense. Sacks had two hits and two RBIs and Chase Pompper had two hits.

The Chargers beat Pilgrim Academy, Clayton and Cape May Tech to match their longest winning streak of the season.

“They’re learning how to win,” Chargers coach John Helsel said. “It was just a great team effort. I can’t be happier. We won them all. It was tough – our catcher got hurt, we had to shuffle guys around, we were running out of pitching – but we did it and we came back.”

PENNS GROVE 13, WINSLOW 0: Dylan Hyatt spun Penns Grove’s first shutout since 2019, a one-hit, 12-strikeout effort that helped the Red Devils (3-7) snap a two-game losing streak.

It was their first shutout since Austin Smith blanked Wildwood (14-0) on April 8, 2019 (115 games, 20 wins)

“It’s the best we’ve seen him,” Red Devils coach Chuck Weigel said. “He brought everything today.”

The only Hyatt allowed was a two-out single in the top of the first. He then retired 13 of the last 14 batters he faced, 12 by strikeout. The only baserunner in that stretch reached on a misread infield fly in the fourth.

He threw 58 pitches in the five-inning game, 48 for strikes. He had 13 first-pitch strikes to the 18 batters he faced and had only two two-ball counts.

“He was locating his fastball and mixing a curve to keep them off balanced all afternoon,” assistant coach Joe Mecholsky said.

Bristol Scott had a two-run single in the first to get the Red Devils going and Josh Widen had two hits and two RBIs.

BUENA 26, SALEM 1: The Chiefs (9-3) scored 11 runs in each of the first two innings and their two pitchers limited the Rams to two hits and struck out eight.

Richie Wilson hit a two-run homer in the second 11-run inning and had three RBIs in the game. Ricky Bessix had four RBIs and Gio Crescitelli drove in three.

The Rams (0-8) scored their run in the fifth when Josthen Jimenez hit a leadoff triple and rode home on a ground out.

Softball

LOWER CAPE MAY 14, SALEM 10: The Tigers jumped out to a 14-0 lead after two innings, then held on as the Rams steadily climbed back into the game.

The Rams got back in it with a six-run fourth inning highlighted by aggressive base running and plate discipline. They scored the runs on a two steals of home, a passed ball, an error, a bases-loaded walk and bases-loaded hit batsman. They added single runs in the sixth and seventh innings.

Khloe Bubier had two hits for the Rams and Avah Brown had two RBIs. Akayla Nichols reached base four times.

Track: Penn Relays

Schalick and Salem ran in the same heat of Friday’s boys 4×100 at the Penn Relays and finished neck and neck.

The Cougars finished fifth in the heat and 40th overall. The team of Amauri Conyers, Jacob Carter, Kenny Bartee and David Stewart ran 44.119.

Salem was sixth in the heat and finished 51st overall. The team of Jelani Beverly, Jameek Clayton, Rashar Stevenson and Quimere Bergen ran a PR 44.348.

LINCROFT — The Salem CC softball team outdueled Brookdale’s top pitcher in Game 1 and then jumped out quickly in Game 2 to sweep the Jersey Blues 3-0 and 8-3 in its last tough tuneup before the Region 19 playoffs.

The Mighty Oaks will be the No. 4 seed in the playoffs and wrap up the regular season this weekend against Raritan Valley. a team they outscored 51-2 in a doubleheader two weeks ago.

Raegan Wilson and Jordyn Busch combined on a two-hit shutout and outdueled Brookdale ace Jules Hart in the circle in the opener. Wilson pitched the first five innings, giving up two singles and walking none, while Busch notched a six-out save. Hart gave up just three hits and struck out nine, leaving her one shy of 300 for her career.

The Mighty Oaks scored two runs in the first inning when the Blues misplayed a ball hit by Emme Witter. J.J. Aguirre drove in a run in the third.

They erupted for 13 hits in the nightcap and jumped out to a 7-0 lead after batting in the fourth inning. Lilly Peverelle continued her hot hand at the plate, going 3-for-4 with a double and homer.

“She said I think I can hit a home run,” assistant coach Chris Watson said. “I said, ‘Lilly, the wind’s blowing in, just hit a line drive.’ She said OK, then put the first pitch over the left field wall.”

It was her fifth homer of the year and helped raise her team-leading batting average to .470. In her last 14 games she is hitting .460 with 23 RBIs.

Witter also had three hits in the nightcap. Megan Koski and J.J. Aguirre both had two hits. Busch pitched the first 5 2/3 innings to get the win, with Savannah Palverento picking up the final four outs without allowing a hit.

Woodstown breaks nearly 50-year-old Woodbury Relays meet record in 4×800; report also includes Saturday Salem County baseball results

By Al Muskewitz
Riverview Sports News

WOODBURY – Hey, Woodstown 4×800 relay team, you just broke a nearly 50-year-old record in the Woodbury Relays. How are you going to celebrate?

We’re going to Disney World.

That’s not some cheap and easy way to get into the story of the Wolverines’ latest record-breaking relay. Because it’s actually true. All of it.

The Wolverines’ Four Horsemen relay team – Karson Chew, Jacob Marino, David Farrell and Josh Crawford – ran a sizzling 7:52.95 Saturday to win the Boys One 4×800, qualifying for nationals and blowing away the meet record of 8:06.10 set by Woodbury in 1978. One of the architects of the old record, Dick Caton, was officiating at the start line. Making the milestone even more special for one of the record-setters, it was anchor Crawford’s 18th birthday.

“It was a great relay today,” Crawford said. “This is a perfect birthday present. Our whole team really made sure that this one would be memorable.”

And the timing for a champion and their storyline couldn’t be more perfect. The three seniors on that relay – Chew, Marino and Crawford – head off to Woodstown’s Senior Trip – really, to Disney World – Sunday. You can’t make this up.

“It’s like what they do in the NFL,” Crawford said. “They celebrate the same way.”

Chew started them off with an opening leg of 1:57.02 and had a two-second lead when he passed the baton. Crawford brought them home with his best-ever split of 1:51.4, making up a 1.2-second deficit at the exchange to win by more than three seconds. Glassboro finished second at 7:56.44. The Bulldogs put a calculated lineup together to challenge the Wolverines with Crawford dueling Zacchaeus Harrigan in the final leg.

“Honestly, I think it was so good because I’m a chaser,” Crawford said. “I always run my best times when I’m behind people I know are good competition. Zacchaeus really gave me a run for my money today … It really just came down to who was the stronger runner in the last 200 meters of the race.

“We knew Glassboro was going to put up some competition because they were an eight-flat team and they really organized their relay perfectly. They really put to the test what we could actually accomplish today.”

Obviously, none of the Woodstown runners were even born when Caton and Co. set the old record, and probably neither were a lot of their parents. Woodstown coach Tom Mason was there when it happened, coaching the Penns Grove girls team that ran in the meet for the first time and won three events that day.

“I thought it was fantastic,” Mason said.

The Wolverines won two relays and finished top three in two others to finished tied for second place in the scored portion of the meet. They might’ve even won it had they not finished second in the 4×400 relay after a clerical error landed them in the slow heat. They ended up with 36 points and tied with Glassboro, just four points behind meet winner Camden.

They also won the sprint medley relay (Chew, newcomers Anthony White and Ricky Watts, and Crawford, 3:33.97), finished second in the 4×400 (3:25.08) and were third in the distance medley relay, setting the school record (10:53.31).

The all-inclusive field events didn’t figure in the team scoring, but winners do receive a Woodbury Watch and Aidan Taulane won the discus (164-7) and finished third in the shot put (48-1.5). He also had a discus throw that appeared to be close to qualifying him for the nationals, but it was right at the boundary line.

Penns Grove finished fourth in the team race. The Red Devils were second in both the 4×100 and 4×200 relays, breaking a school record in the 4×2 that stood for 44 years. 

Salem was sixth and Schalick T-7. The Rams were third in the 4×400 and the 4×200. Schalick was second in the shuttle hurdle relay, third in the sprint medley relay (two-tenths of a second off the school record) and had five field athletes place in the top five.

Salem finished a solid second in the girls standings. The Rams won the 4×100 and 4×200 and was second in the 4×400. Freshman Dynastie Tucker anchored all three relays.

RAP CURRY INVITATIONAL: Woodstown’s girls 4×800 relay team of Arianna Mott, Abby Marino, Kiera Porch and Kyrsten Dussault ran a season’s best 11:12.52 for the Wolverines’ best finish in the running events in Yeadon, Pa. Kailyn Kennedy had a 10th-place finish in the individual high jump (4-7).

The Wolverines had several top 20 finishers. Lia Covely placed 14th in the 100 hurdles (17.52) and 18th in the 300 hurdles (52.73). Juliette Angelus was 15th in the pole vault (6-6) and Abby Marino 18th in the 1600 (5:31.01).

PENNSVILLE — The players on the Pennsville softball team were arriving at second base so often in the first inning Friday one would have thought stopping at first base was just a suggestion.

The Eagles produced three straight RBI doubles from the heart of their batting order in the first inning and a two-run two-bagger later in the inning to set the stage for an 8-1 win over Pitman that gave them complete control of the TCC Classic Division race.

The Eagles (7-1) hit five doubles for the second game in a row. Kylie Harris, the recognized Queen of the Double, hit two. It was such a complete win, eight players got a hit and six scored. Graillyn Weber came within one out of posting their third straight shutout.

Pennsville took control of their straight win from the start. Lily Edwards started the inning with a single and stole second. After Weber flew out to deep right, the Eagles got consecutive RBI doubles from Harris (the 45th of her career), Avery Watson and Kenzie Widener.

“That was so crazy,” Harris said. “I think we just connected the ball really well and found the gaps. I’ve never seen three doubles hit in a row like that, but that was the best feeling ever, especially here on our field. Probably maybe we’ve had three doubles, but never back-to-back like that. That was awesome.”

Later in the inning, Taylor Bass hit her first career double to drive in the last two runs of the inning. Harris hit her 46th career double later in the game and scored the Eagles’ final run on an RBI single by Widener. The Eagles have hit 24 doubles this season, half of which have come on their home field.

“It’s just like a momentum thing,” Watson said. “We all see each other ripping line drives off this girl – both of them were great pitchers – and we gave each other advice coming into the dugout and saw what we saw up there.

“Taylor’s (double) was really exciting. Seeing someone new to the game ripping a double out there is really exciting and it gets everyone hyped in the dugout. We were all talking like I’ve never seen this many doubles in a row before. It was just exciting. That’s what keeps us going.”

The Eagles don’t need extra-base hits in order to score. They used aggressive baserunning and Pitman errors to score two more runs in the second inning and extend the lead to 7-0. The next inning the Panthers brought in Listella Eisenhart to pitch and the sophomore lefthander kept the Eagles off the board until the sixth.

The big early lead made it more comfortable for Weber to throw strikes. She gave up just one hit over the first four innings, facing just three batters over the minimum, and kept the Panthers off the board until she tired in the seventh. The Panthers loaded the bases and scored on Cassidy Batten’s sacrifice fly and then Weber ended the game on the next pitch. It was the first run Pennsville allowed since Haddon Heights’ walk-off homer last Friday.

She gave up five hits, struck out three and walked one (in the seventh inning).

“I threw pretty good,” Weber said. “I probably could’ve been better on a few pitches, but I did pretty good. I’m happy with my results.”

The defense kept the shutout bid alive. The biggest run-saver came in the fifth when Eisenhart led off with a triple and with Delaney Pierson showing bunt, catcher Harris threw behind Eisenhart and got her in a rundown, where she was easily tagged out. Pierson wound up singling that would’ve gotten the run home.

Harris almost turned a double play two batters later when she caught a foul pop, but threw too high to first to get a runner who strayed too far off the base. Watson turned a nifty double play going to the backhand side earlier in the game and made two diving stops to keep singles from going into the outfield for potentially extra bases. And Reagan Wariwanchik snared a rising liner at second base that looked like it was headed into the outfield.

“They helped me a lot; I really appreciate it,” Weber said. “There were a lot of good plays made today, that honestly made me happy. I’m glad that our defense got a little chance when I’m pitching to field a little bit because I know they don’t get a lot. I tried to keep my arms to myself when I was pitching today a little more.”

CUMBERLAND 13, WOODSTOWN 6: Ellie Wygand went 4-for-4 at the top of the Woodstown lineup, but the Wolverines were in catch-up mode all day after the Colts erupted for seven runs with two outs in the home first.

Woodstown pitcher Leah Clark retired the first two batters she faced, then the Colts put together a walk and seven straight hits. The Wolverines cut into their deficit with three runs in the third on Macie Moore’s RBI triple, an RBI single by Wygand, and Madison LaPalomento’s run-scoring ground out, but the Colts got them all back in the fifth.

CAPE MAY TECH 16, SALEM 2: The Hawks broke open a close game with nine runs in the third inning. and Emma Oravits held the Rams to one hit.

The big inning was highlighted by a two-run single from Addison LeSage and a two-run triple from Melissa Rivello. Madison Johnson had Salem’s only hit, a third-inning single. Oravits faced the minimum through three innings thanks to a pair of double plays.

BASEBALL

PENNSVILLE 9, PITMAN 6: The Eagles rallied from a 6-2 deficit with seven runs in the fourth, fifth and sixth innings and reliever Gavin Spears was sharp on the mound after a rough start to score the divisional win.

Logan Streitz started tor the Eagles and pitched into the second inning on 30 pitches to prep for Saturday’s Steal Your Base (Williamstown) Tournament start against Kingsway. Spears was tabbed for 30 pitches as well, but after he gave up five runs in the third inning the Eagles just had him eat innings.

It turned out to be a good move. After finding himself, Spears held the Panthers hitless over the last four innings, facing just two batters over the minimum, while the Eagles rallied. Spears went 5 2/3 innings and struck out 12.

The Eagles (7-1) tied the game in the fifth when the Panthers misplayed Logan Cowperthwiat’s fly to right into a pair of run. They took the lead in the sixth when Mason O’Brien scored on a wild pitch and extended it on RBI singles by Jake Layfield and Mike McClincy.

“(Spears) went to work on the mound, pitched very well, pounded the zone and challenge hitters,” Pennsville coach Matt Karr said. “The offense chipped away and kept winning innings and we found a way to win. I’m proud of their effort to dig out of the hole on the road against a division opponent.”

CUMBERLAND 7, WOODSTOWN 0: Kameron Fiorani and Peyton Brennan shut out the Wolverines on five hits and Fiorani hit a two-run homer in the sixth to put an exclamation point on the performance.

Fiorani went the first six innings, giving up five hits, walking four and striking out five. Brenner set the Wolverines down in order in the seventh.

The Wolverines mounted a few threats, getting five runners in scoring position, but Fiorani got out of them every time. His defense helped with two double plays.

BLACKWOOD — Two Camden pitchers held Salem CC to two singles and off the scoreboard until the ninth inning to beat the Mighty Oaks in their series opener 6-1.

Nick Mokienko, a freshman right-hander with a sub-1.50 ERA, worked the first 7 2/3 innings and gave up one hit while striking out 11. He hasn’t allowed an earned run in his last six appearances (24 innings). Michael Manera came in behind him and gave up one hit and the Mighty Oaks’ only run.

Until the ninth, the only hit the Mighty Oaks mustered was Colin McLaughlin’s leadoff single in the fifth. Mokienko faced only one batters over the minimum through the first four innings

The Mighty Oaks finally got on the board in the ninth. Jason LeBold led off the inning by getting hit by a pitch for the 15th time this season and Tyler Hacker singled. The runners pulled off a double steal and LeBold rode home on Roman Hernandez; sacrifice fly.

The Cougars scored two runs in each of the first two innings. C Hudson delivered a two-out two-run single off Pat Seitzinger in the first and I Monteith hit a two-run double in the second.

The series concludes with a noon doubleheader Saturday at the Carneys Point Rec Complex.
