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

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.”

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.

Sharp batter’s eye

Simmons has a career day at the plate for Pennsville softball; Schalick baseball crushes another toe

By Riverview Sports News

PENNSVILLE – Sawyer Simmons took the initiative in the offseason to become a better hitter and it’s been paying off.

Simmons went 4-for-4 with a career-tying three RBIs on a cold, windy Tuesday and Pennsville scored in every inning to beat Overbrook 8-4 to win for the third time in their last four games.

Two of her hits gave the Eagles (4-2) a lead.

The senior outfielder got her day started with a two-out, two-run single in the first that put the Eagles up 2-1. Her RBI single in the fourth put them up for good 5-4. She also had a double in the third and a single in the sixth.

It was her first career four-hit game. The Salem CC signee is 6-for-7 in her last two games.

“With the wind blowing like it was we were looking for line drives or hitting something hard on the ground and she did that every time she came up,” Eagles coach Beth Jackson said. “She hit it very hard, even gave a couple good rides that were foul balls.

“She’s struggled with her hitting over the last couple years but I told her if you wanted to take a net and tee to hit in the offseason you were more than welcome. She did take the initiative and that’s what’s come through.”

Kylie Harris had two hits for the Eagles, including an RBI single in the fifth, and is now hitting .706 for the year. She now has 84 hits in her high school career.

Reagan Wariwanchik and Makenzie Widener also drove in runs for the Eagles. Savannah Palverento worked the first six innings in the circle to get the win.

BASEBALL
SCHALICK 18, CLAYTON 1:
 It’s been a week since the Cougars last played, but the time off hasn’t dulled their hitting eye. The Cougars pounded out 16 hits, scored in every inning, and beat the Clippers in five innings. 

Evan Glaspey went 3-for-3 with four RBIs and two walks. Lucas D’Agostino went 2-for-2 with two RBIs and three runs scored. Enrico Hatz went 2-for-2 with three RBIs and four runs scored. Evan Sepers had two hits, starting pitcher Cole Hartley had three RBIs and Jamari Whitley drove in a pair of runs. 

The Cougars have outscored their opponents 41-2 in their first three games. They have scored runs in 13 of the 15 innings they’ve batted.

Three games involving county teams were postponed: Pennsville at Overbrook, Salem at Penns Grove and Woodstown at Wildwood. The Salem-Penns Grove game has been rescheduled for Wednesday. 

GOLF
WOODSTOWN 165, OVERBROOK 178:
 Erich Lipovsky and Joey Olbrich both shot 4-over-par 40s at Kresson GC and the Wolverines posted the three low scores of the match to even their record at 3-3. Grant Prater shot 41

Woodstown boys sweep Triton to give Stemberger milestone coaching win in Wolverines’ tennis program

THURSDAY TENNIS
Woodstown 5, Triton 0
Schalick 4, Glassboro 1

Riverview Sports News

RUNNEMEDE — The Woodstown boys tennis team swept their head coach into the history books Thursday.

The Wolverines beat Triton 5-0, dropping only one set all day, to give head coach Jesse Stemberger his 300th combined career coaching win in 17 seasons at the helm of the program. Thursday’s win was his 50th with the Woodstown boys program.

It was the Wolverines’ third win in as many days. Stemberger is 250-93 in 17 seasons with the girls, 50-27 in five seasons with the boys.

“It means I’ve been doing it a long time,” he said of the milestone. “When I look at it and I look at all the kids I’ve coached over the years I feel good for them because everybody has a part and I think everybody takes pride in having played for Woodstown tennis in the last 17 years. So, I feel good for them more than I feel good for myself.

“I don’t really think of it as much of an accomplish at the moment but maybe in a couple years I’ll sit back and say yeah that’s pretty cool.”

Stemberger scored his first win on Sept. 10, 2008, a 5-0 girls sweep of Penns Grove; he still has the ball on his shelf. He also got No. 100 against Penns Grove and No. 200 against Overbrook. His first win with the boys came against Wildwood. Of the milestone wins, only No. 100 came at home.

The No. 2 doubles team of Luke Shaw and Mason Shimp got the day started. No. 2 singles John Farrell secured the second point and the victory was clinched by the No. 1 doubles team of Ben Stengel and Nick DiTeodoro (Stemberger’s nephew).

Drew Stengel made it 4-0 at No. 1 singles and Joseph Kurpis completed the sweep when he won a 10-8 tiebreaker at No. 3 singles.

Stemberger is the third Woodstown head coach to reach the 300-win milestone this academic year, joining Darren Huck (boys soccer) and Adam Hyland (wrestling).

“I like it because we’re all friends,” Stemberger said. “We’re the old guard over there. We’re the three longest-tenured. We’re the old guys now. We’ve all been through a lot. We’ve had the same athletic directors, the same administrators, so we’re like the grumpy old men now.

“It’s fun. All three of us have really dedicated a lot of time to this and ultimately it comes down to what we want to do for the kids. They’re the real beneficiaries of this. They’re the ones you care about, they’re the ones you want to see be appreciative of what they’ve got.”

Finish with flourish

Woodstown tennis seniors produce memorable finish to their careers with dramatic win over Pennsville; includes all of Friday’s Salem County sports action

Woodstown 3, Pennsville 2

By Riverview Sports News

PENNSVILLE – The seniors on the Woodstown girls tennis team knew they had reached the end of the line and they wanted to do something memorable before riding off into the sunset. They sure went out with a flourish.

Three of the Wolverines’ seniors won matches that involved some sort of tiebreaker and their fortitude fueled a 3-2 win over Pennsville that handed the Eagles only their second loss of the season and clinched a share of the Tri-County Diamond Division title.

“I was very proud with how the girls performed today,” Wolverines coach Jesse Stemberger said. “The seniors were a little emotional beforehand knowing this was their last match, but they wanted to have a memorable ending to their careers and season and they were able to achieve that.”

The Wolverines (16-5) clinched the match at No. 1 doubles when senior Julianna Lindenmuth and junior Alyssa Berry took down Emma Cornette and Izzy Schrenker 7-6 (7-3), 7-5. 

Before that, senior Camille Osborn won the final match of her high school career over Regan Witt 6-4, 7-6 (12-10) at No. 2 singles and senior Leah Waterman teamed with junior Nathalie Neron to win a 10-4 super tiebreaker after dropping the first set to Naomi Hess and Morgan Holt, 3-6.

Osborn had lost two of her three previous super tiebreakers this season, with one of the losses coming to Witt on Oct. 1. Lindenmuth (with Berry) had been 1-1 in set tiebreakers this season. It was Waterman’s first super tiebreaker of the season.

The Wolverines finished the season with a five-match winning streak and were 7-1 after being eliminated by Haddon Twp. in the South Jersey Group I quarterfinals.

Pennsville (20-2) got its points from first singles Megan Morris and third singles Lily Edwards. Edwards finished the season undefeated (21-0) and has won 32 consecutive matches going back to last season.

BOYS SOCCER
HADDON TWP. 1, SCHALICK 0: Andres Santiago scored a first-half goal and keeper Collin Feeley made it stand with 15 saves in the net as the Hawks snapped the Cougars’ 10-match winning streak in the opening round of the South Jersey Coaches Cup. It was only the Cougars’ second loss of the season and they remain No. 1 in the South Jersey Group I power points standings.

Haddon Twp. was the No. 4 team in the SJ Group I power points standings, meaning it would be on Schalick’s side of the bracket if the pairings were finalized today. Woodstown is the solid No. 2, Penns Grove is No. 9 and Pennsville No. 13. The cutoff day for the standings is Saturday.

OVERBROOK 4, PENNSVILLE 0: The Eagles moved up the match with the hopes of enhancing their playoff position before the cutoff, but Overbrook kept them off the board. Four separate players lit the lamp for the Rams.

WILDWOOD CATHOLIC 7, SALEM TECH 1: Teddy Woolery and Charlie Flickinger both scored a hat trick as the Crusaders snapped the Chargers’ school-record three-game winning streak. Graham Fields scored the Chargers’ goal in the second half.

FIELD HOCKEY
SALEM 3, GLOUCESTER CATHOLIC 0: Audrey Boggs broke a scoreless tie with a third-quarter goal and assisted on the Rams’ other two second-half goals by Kashira Patterson and Julliana Love. Ava Rogers made five saves in posting the shutout.

Heading into Saturday’s cutoff, Salem is No. 10 in the South Jersey Group I standings. Unbeaten Schalick is 2, Woodstown 6 and Pennsville 17.

VOLLEYBALL
SALEM TECH 2, GLOUCESTER CATHOLIC 1: The Chargers rallied from dropping the first set to score their third win of the season. The set scores were 16-25, 25-13, 25-12. Tori Farnkoph had eight kills and 10 aces to lead the way. Tiara Bazemore had six kills and eight assists, Shelby Liber had seven aces and Alan’s James had six assists.

Hadfield wins TCC race

Schalick senior getting back on track after stretch of illness slowed her down, now turns her attention to sectionals, state

By Al Muskewitz
Riverview Sports News

SEABROOK – Jordan Hadfield is starting to feel like her old self again – just in time for the biggest races of the year.

HADFIELD

The Schalick senior had been fighting through an illness she knows not what that combined with a heavy race schedule impacted her from being in top form.

She was still feeling some of it Wednesday at the Tri-County Conference Showcase, but felt a lot closer to being back, winning the girls race for the second year in a row. She covered the Cumberland Regional course in 18:57.51.

“I’m definitely a little bit more happy about where we’re heading toward sectionals,” she said. “Just from getting over being sick it’s hard to get back into it, so running high 18s just for getting back is not bad. 

“With the sectionals coming up (at Dream Park) I have a week and a half to get myself together. I’ll definitely have to focus in training. Now that I feel better we’ll definitely do better.”

Race followers sensed something was wrong at the Salem County Championship when Hadfield ran a 19:15.79 to win the race and was physically upset about it. It was part of a grueling stretch of three races in eight days. 

It was such a grind she sat out last week’s TCC Batch Meet in which the Cougars clinched their division championship in order to be ready for Wednesday and the rest of the season.

“I typically am not like the person to be sick all the time, I kind of get lucky with that stuff, and this part of the season is not a good time to get sick,” she said. “I’m so thankful it was not during sectionals and things. 

“Today’s race was just about seeing where we are after you’re being sick and just getting back into it, and running somewhat close to what you used to be able to so that this week and a half will be just refining that.”

Hadfield went out in Wednesday’s race “a little slower than I would’ve preferred,” but still at a pace she felt comfortable. The contenders ran together for about the first two miles, then she picked up the pace because she didn’t want it to come down to a big push at the end and led the rest of the race.

She beat runner-up Sophia Aldridge of Williamston to the wire by nine seconds. Wildwood’s Macie McCracken was third, another 16 seconds back.

The next fastest Salem County finisher after Hadfield was Woodstown’s Abby Marino, who finished 11th (20:31.07). Salem Tech’s Sarah Seiden was 21st (21:21.04).

Schalick finished sixth as a team. Delsea won the girls team title, squeezing all its counters in a tight 78-second pack between sixth and 15th.

Glassboro’s Ty Blackman won the boys race in 15:49.74. Highland Regional won the team title, placing four of its five counters among the top 13.

Woodstown’s Cole Lucas and county champion Karson Chew finished 11th and 17th, respectively, to help the Wolverines to a fifth-place team finish. Schalick was 11th, Salem Tech 14th and Salem 16th.

Hadfield is still trying to decide her college future, but her choice appears to be coming down between St. Joe’s and the University of Rhode Island.
