The teams have been announced for the NJ/Delaware Flyers cup and soon it will begin its 4th Annual tournament the second week of March. This year there has been an increase in the number of teams participating. Here is the schedule for the Pond in Delaware with Salesianum playing Kingsway and Delaware Military Academy playing Township on Monday March 6th. Cherokee will host Moorestown and Eastern will host Appoquinmink at Voorhees also on March 6th. Semi-finals on Wednesday, March 8th with the Championship on Friday March 10th. Here's the full list and seeding for this year's Flyers Cup.
Luke Steele put home a rebound early in the first overtime as Cherry Hill East defeated Clearview 4-3 in an overtime thriller last night at Hollydell. Jordan Hauler got the start in nets for East and played outstanding as Cherry Hill built a 3-0 lead. Thurston Schon got things going early for Cherry Hill scoring in the first ninety seconds of the game. Jack Meath, who tallied two goals tonight, which doubled his season total, scored a power play goal in the final four minutes of the period and East took a 2-0 lead into the second period. Hauler was stopping everything as the View could not get one by him and with the period winding down Meath scored on a breakaway to give East a 3-0 lead.
Each year, we are pleased with the league allowing us to recognize several players and a coach and their outstanding contributions they have made for their team. With at least two to three players considered for each category, we have finalized our decision. In the continuing tradition here at SJIceHockey we honor players we feel stood out during the regular season and here are the players we selected and are pleased to announce the 2016-2017 award winners:
Matt Savvas scored two goals, including the game winner with thirty eight seconds left as HLV upset top seed Clearview 5-3 in opening round action in Voorhees. HLV jumped out to a 2-0 first period lead on goals by Savvas and Sam Mohnacs. The View would respond in the second period getting goals from Cole and Chase Dyar and we entered the third period tied at 2-2. Ryan Lasalvia, who also scored twice, gave HLV a 3-2 lead at the seven minute mark, but the View would rally with ninety seconds left as Robert Penrod got the tying goal. Less than one minute later Savvas got the game winner and the HLV bench went crazy. Lasalvia added an empty net goal at the end.
Senior night at Hollydell produced a large crowd for Clearview as they rallied from a 4-2 deficit to beat Williamstown 7-5 on Friday night. Anthony Dellerose and Matt Manzo led the offense scoring two goals each, Drew Murtha and Justin Fortuna scored twice for Williamstown. Joey Freda gave the View a 1-0 lead early in the first period, but Murtha would get the equalizer at the nine minute mark. Manzo would give the View a 2-1 lead with just over three minutes left as Hunter Tamburro won the draw right back to Manzo. Just over two minutes later Fortuna would get the first of his two on the night as Steve Poulin intercepted a clearing pass and found Fortuna down low for a tap-in goal and we were tied at 2-2 after one.
Mike Moss broke a 2-2 game with ten minutes left in the game as Team Simmonds edged Team Giroux 3-2 in last night’s Junior/Senior Showcase game at the Skate Zone in Voorhees. Having participated in the last few drafts Coach McKay has never won in this format, and while he wouldn’t admit that it bothered him, I got to believe that the success he has enjoyed over the last 8 years, not winning this game was probably bothering him to a degree. Trailing 2-0 on goals by Kevin Troy of St Joe’s and Zachary Faust of Black Horse, Team Simmonds would get a late goal in the period as Cody Charyk from Shawnee would score with Moss and Vinny Salerno getting the assists.
Cherokee trailed 2-1 entering the third period but scored four times as they rallied to defeat Clearview 5-2 in late game action at Voorhees. Jeremy Ambrose led the offense with a hat trick and Sam Libetti had three assists. The Chiefs jumped out to a 1-0 lead just two minutes into the game as Andrea Katsanos scored on the power play. But right off the center ice face-off Clearview would get the tying goal from Joey Freda just six seconds later. Robert Penrod would give the View a 2-1 lead late in the period scoring his sixth of the season.
Adam Notaro stopped 50 shots and Egg Harbor Township rallied from a 3-0 first period deficit to tie Clearview 3-3 in early game action at Hollydell. The View started quickly as most of the first period was spent in the Egg Harbor zone with 20 of the 53 total shots launched in the opening 15 minutes. Chase Dyar opened the scoring just bovver three minutes into the game and just about one minute later Derek McKinley had the lead to 2-0 getting his second goal of the season. Leading scorer Nick Ramos would score his 23rd of the season, this one on the power play, on a nice feed from Robert Penrod in the final seconds of the period and the lead was 3-0.
This past Thursday night the SJHSHL held its Junior/Senior Showcase draft with Team Giroux selected by Coach Popiolek from Black Horse and Coach Busler from Cherry Hill East and making the selections for Team Simmonds were Coach McKay from Cherokee and Coach Vulpio from Clearview. We tossed a coin to see who would get first pick and Team Simmonds won the toss and selected Nick Ramos, Team Giroux would select Zachary Faust with their first pick. The forwards were chosen first, total of 12, followed by 6 defenseman each team, then 3 alternates each team and finally the goalies. Here are the rosters:
