As we come to an end of the 2015-2016 season had a few final thoughts and observations about this season. Does anyone remember that just a few years ago Kingsway went winless and now the last 2 years have turned that program around? They took their lumps and beatings by joining the Tier I division, but it has paid off and they have also grown their fan base. With their win on Friday night against Township, Cherokee has become one of the most successful high school programs in our region. Love them or hate them, you cannot argue with their accomplishments, winning 6 out of the last 7 titles is a feat that might not be duplicated. Coach McKay has built a strong program and his team looks even stronger for next season.
The second annual NJ/DE Flyers cup will be held the week of March 14th. Cherokee and Washington Township will play at the Skate Zone in Voorhees with dates and times to be announced. Moorestown and Kingsway will travel to the Pond in Delaware Monday, March 14th, times to be announced. Please come out and support your team and congratulations to all the teams on being selected. Here are the teams nominated along with their seeding:
Kris Hastings and David Cutler each had a hat trick as Cherry Hill defeated Middle Township 10-0 in the SJHSHL double elimination tournament. With the loss the season ended for Middle Township. Cherry Hill will now play Egg Harbor Township on Friday night and must beat them twice if they want to win the championship as EHT as gone through the tournament without a loss. Cherry Hill wasted little time taking control of the game scoring six goals in the first period, with three coming on the power play.
Egg Harbor Township scored four goals in the third period, three by Travis Tuthill as they rallied from a 3-2 deficit to defeat Cherry Hill 6-3 in playoff action in Voorhees. Jared Fisch led the Cherry Hill offense with two goals. Matt Castlelane gave EHT a 1-0 lead just two minutes into the game, however a power play goal by Brian Stamm and an even strength goal gave Cherry Hill a 2-1 lead after one period. Fisch made it 3-1 in the opening minute of the second period scoring on the power play.
Donovan Haslett’s shot from the point found its way into the net with just over three minutes left in the game to snap a 6-6 tie and give Team Giroux a 7-6 win in a very entertaining Junior/Senior Showcase game held at the Skate Zone in Voorhees. Kenny Weightman had a hat trick for Team Giroux; Nick Frangos led Team Vorachek also with a hat trick. The game was back and forth in the opening period with Weightman and Frangos exchanging goals in the opening minutes. After Weightman gave his squad a 2-1 lead, Frangos would tie the game midway through the period.
Kris Hastings had a hat trick to pace Cherry Hill East past Middle Township 9-1 in the opening round of the double elimination tournament played at the Skate Zone in Voorhees. Cherry Hill scored four goals in the first period, including two in the first three minutes to take control early. Hastings scored both goals in the first three minutes, Justin Bryan assisting on the first and Andrew Bowen getting the helper on the second goal. Kenny Weightman would cut the lead to 2-1 scoring the lone goal of the night for Middle Township at the five minute mark. Eric Busler would score his first of the playoffs to make it 3-1 and Antonio Musciano would score on the power play in the final sixteen seconds with Jason Fisch and Hastings assisting and the lead was 4-1 after one.
