Exciting times

Woodstown’s Crawford wins boys Group I indoor 800, becomes Wolverines’ first indoor state champion in 19 years

TOMS RIVER – Josh Crawford turned a big negative into a big positive and it turned him into a record-setting state champion.

Woodstown’s Josh Crawford shows off his medals after winning the Group I indoor 800 and anchoring the runner-up 4×400 relay team.

The Woodstown junior was bummed by the way he ran in the 400 at Sunday’s Group I Indoor Track Championships at the Bennett Center Bubble, but instead of stewing over it the rest of the day he used it to fuel his next race and it became the best run of his life.

Crawford ran a personal-best 1:59.01 and edged Shore Regional’s Brady McHugh by 37 hundreths of a second – about two meters – to win Group I state title and give the Wolverines their first indoor state champion since before he was born.

“I’m just so happy,” he said. “I was feeling great today and I got out there and pushed my best. I never ran like that before with so much excitement and energy. It was a very unreal feeling (to win it).”

The 16-year-old is Woodstown’s first indoor state champion since Brenan McDonough won the 800 in the 2006 Group I meet at Princeton’s Jadwin Gym – 26 months before he was even born. Additionally, he broke the Salem County indoor 800 record of 1:59.21 set by Schalick’s Greg McGuire in the 2020 Group I meet here.

“I didn’t know that while I was running; that’s just insane,” he said of his piece of Woodstown history. “That just makes it like 10 times more exciting for me.”

And it was all a byproduct of his disappointment in the 400, where he had top time in his heat but wound up finishing 11th overall after getting bumped out of position midway through his heat race. His 53.09 was two seconds slower than his winning sectional time.

“It was definitely the 400 that added fire,” he said. “I just wasn’t in the correct mental state or physical state, so I just decided to switch my mindset around and focus on the upcoming 800 and put everything out there and make up for what I missed in the 400.”

To his credit, he didn’t go into the 800 trying to make up for the other race in the first 50 meters. He started next to teammate Cole Lucas and after some initial jostling settled into his gameplan. He was content to sit on McHugh and Raritan’s Joseph Testai the whole race and waited on them to fade to make his move.

That came with about 100 meters to go.

“I just had so much (energy) in me I just used all the anger that came from the previous race to get to the finish line before they could,” he said.

Crawford also ran the anchor leg on the Wolverines’ runner-up 4×400 relay team (with Cole Lucas, Karson Chew and Anthony Costello).

He was the only champion from Salem County Sunday, but the county produced four other qualifiers for next week’s Meet of Champions next week at the Ocean Breeze Complex on Staten Island. The top three finishers in each event and a select number of wildcards advance.

Woodstown’s Jaime Deal finished third in the girls 400, Schalick’s Jordan Hadfield was second in both the 1600 and 3200, Salem’s Anthony Parker was second in the boys 55 hurdles (by .02 seconds) and Schalick’s David Stewart was third in the 55 dash.

Going for gold

Record-setting Parker, Crawford, Hadfield lead Salem County contingent at sectional meet; Woodstown’s boys second as team

By Riverview Sports News

TOMS RIVER – Salem’s Anthony Parker set a meet record and Schalick’s Jordan Hadfield and Woodstown’s Josh Crawford won two events to highlight Salem County’s showing in the South Jersey Group I track and field sectionals at The Bubble here Saturday.

Parker won the boys 55 hurdles in 7.71, break the old record of 7.72, set by Corsen Harter of Haddon Twp. in 2013. He was the fastest qualifier through the prelims (7.93).

Crawford won the boys 400 (51/03) and nipped teammate Cole Lucas at the wire to win the 800 (2:01.51). Crawford and Lucas also ran legs on the Wolverines’ runner-up 4×400 relay team that finished second to record-setting Woodbury and ran three seconds faster than the old meet record.

Hadfield won the girls 1600 (5:08.12) and 3200 (11:17.85). She also ran a leg on the Cougars’ third-place 4×400 relay team.

Woodstown finished a solid second in boys team standings behind Glassboro. Schalick and Woodstown finished 3-4 – one point apart – in the girls team standings.

AUDUBON – Riley Papiano has never felt so happy to be dropped on his head before.

Papiano painfully won his match at 157 in the South Jersey Group 1 wrestling semifinals Monday night when Audubon’s Pedro Marte was disqualified for slamming the Schalick senior to the mat.

As much as it hurt in the moment, Papiano knew what it meant. The win clinched the Cougars’ 36-31 victory over the No. 1 seed sending them to the sectional final for the first time in school history.

“It was a great night,” Papiano said. “I think it was amazing for the team, the school, everybody.

“I don’t think anybody counted on us getting this far. All the newspapers were going against us and I think we’re just shocking the world. We’re showing everybody else wrong that we can compete at a higher level than anybody else thinks we can.”

The school-record setting win sends the once-beaten Cougars (24-1) to Paulsboro Wednesday – weather permitting – to face the perennial power Red Raiders for a spot in the state final four.

“I don’t think anyone thought we had a shot,” Schalick coach Joe Frassenei said. “Everyone was like, you don’t wrestle a good enough schedule. They weren’t afraid of the big situation. They just wrestled them like they were another opponent and went out and did a great job.

“I told my assistant it was like disbelief (when they clinched). We knew we had a shot, but then reality set in that we actually are going to the South Jersey final for the first time in school history.”

The Cougars had a lot of work to do to get there. Ricky Watt (175) and Evan Elliott (190) “really set the tone for the whole night” with a pin and decision in the first two weight classes to get them rolling.

The Green Wave (22-5) won the next four bouts to go up 20-9. The Cougars stormed back to retake the lead 24-20 on wins from E’Shion Underwood, Luke Silva and Ryan Miller, but Audubon took it right back on Tyler Perozzi’s tech fall at 138 to set up the end game.

Koen Martin (144) and Ayden Jenkins (150) won tight decisions to set up the Papiano-Marte match. If Marte won, the match would go down to the final bout. If Papiano won, it was over.

“I was more proud of the team (than his win),” said Papiano, who’s headed to Norwich (Vt.) University to play football. “It was a team win tonight, it wasn’t an individual. It wouldn’t have been a clinch if Ricky Watt didn’t pin in the first and Ayden Jenkins did get that tough match or Koen didn’t squeeze by and all these other matches, it wouldn’t have mattered.

“As a team I think we embrace (the underdog role) fully. We know no one believes in us and we know every time we win it just makes everybody else more mad.”

If the Cougars are able to pull it off Wednesday, Papiano said, “it would mean the world” to him. He also was part of the Schalick football team that played for South Jersey Group I title in the final.

“Two sectional final games in one year for me is amazing,” he said. “I’d love to win one.”

The Cougars got to Audubon by beating Haddon Twp. in the quarterfinals 44-36. They opened a 44-0 lead, then forfeited the last six weight classes. 

Paulsboro got through its half of the bracket by beating Pitman 45-24 and Woodstown 38-37. Sawyer Cabanas pinned Thomas Lacy in 21 seconds at 157 to give Paulsboro a 13-point lead in the Woodstown match and the Red Raiders forfeited the last two weight classes to bring the final margin.

Woodstown took out Pennsville 61-16 in its first-round match.

It’s his time

Sophomore point guard Robbins directs second-half comeback that lifts Penns Grove over Woodstown; roundup includes Wednesday’s wrestling and track results

By Al Muskewitz
Riverview Sports News

PENNS GROVE – Winning Time is B.J. Robbins’ time.

Whenever the Penns Grove basketball team gets to the point in a game when it’s time to seal the deal, the Red Devils usually put the ball in Robbins’ hands and let him do his thing. And that’s handle the ball, direct the offense and keep them sharp.

The sophomore did his thing flawlessly in the last quarter and a half Wednesday and helped the Red Devils rally to beat Woodstown 70-56.

It extended their season-best winning streak to three games and elevated them to a first-round host position in the current South Jersey Group I power points standings despite a 5-7 record.

“I told Brandin when it’s winning time you are the guy who is going to control the game and that’s kind of what he did at the end of the game,” Red Devils coach Damian Ware said. “He controlled the game, dribbled the ball out, made some great passes to his teammates for assists and we got the easy layups out of it.”

Winning time as defined by Ware is the fourth quarter when the Red Devils are ahead and looking to put the game away, but Robbins got a jump on it in the third quarter when the Red Devils needed somebody to lead the charge back.

Woodstown (7-4) opened the second half with a 12-3 run that threatened to break the game open. But the Red Devils weren’t worried because in the time out Ware called there to settle things down he reminded his players three of the baskets were run-out layups because they were over-pressuring the ball and it allowed the Wolverines to leak out.

The other two buckets in the run were 3-pointers by Alejandro Vasquez, who wrapped the Wolverines’ first eight points of the half around a 3 by Robbins.

If the Red Devils just tightened that up and cut out the offensive rebounds, Ware told them, those things wouldn’t happen and they would wind up winning by double digits. That’s exactly what happened.

The Red Devils (5-7) came out of the time out, did the things Ware reminded them of, and went on a 20-6 run to a feisty end of the quarter to take the lead. At least three times in the run Robbins dazzled the defenders trying to trap him at midcourt with a dazzling display of dribbling before zipping off a sharp pass down low to Jameel Horace who put them up and in.

“I just trusted my teammates,” Robbins said. “I knew they believed in me.”

“The main thing with Brandin is playing aggressive and getting him downhill,” Ware said. “We’ve been working with him all season to be more aggressive. I actually took him out the lineup a couple times, worked him in and out, because he wasn’t giving me what I needed. We had a couple conversation and I told him what we needed and he said ‘I’m ready coach. I got it.’ Ever since then he’s kind of taken the mantle of being more aggressive.”

Robbins finished with 13 points and six assists against the Wolverines. In his last two games he has scored 24 points and dished 14 assists. Roman Gipson led Penns Grove with 19, 13 in the second half. Karon Ceaser had 17. Ceaser is averaging 17.7 ppg during the winning streak and 17 in his last four games.

“He controlled it,” Woodstown coach Ramon Roots said of Robbins. “He just controlled it throughout the whole game and in the second half, like good coaches do, they put it in their point guard’s hands.

“He’s definitely a tough player. He’s a floor general. We tried to bother him the best way we could, but he didn’t really turn the ball over down the stretch. He did a very good job controlling the game and controlling the ball. That’s why I preach to my guys we just can’t turn over the ball (and) put ourselves in a hole.”

Rocco String led Woodstown with 18 points, nine rebounds and five blocked shots. Vasquez finished with a career-high 16. He’s averaging 12.5 ppg over his last four games.

“He’s been shooting it well, shooting it with confidence,” Roots said of Vasquez.
