Zachary Burkhardt stopped 22 shots as Washington Township defeated Moorestown 2-0 in action in the American division played at Voorhees on Monday night. With the win Township is one point out of first place with four games in hand. After a scoreless first period, Township took advantage on the power play with Jimmy Pollock getting his fourth of the season with Riley Griffith and Chris Cozzan assisting. Burkhardt was strong in nets and would face his toughest challenge entering the third period. Moorestown had a 2 man advantage for over one minute but could not get one by Burkhardt.
Sam Strippolli scored two goals and Brandon Balsama had a goal and assist as Washington Township defeated Unionville 5-2 in a cross-over game with a team from PA. Unionville plays in the EPIHA league and is currently 4-2-1 and in 3rd place and has the second leading scorer in the league on their team in forward Matt Kowash. Township has been up and down this season and has a group of young freshman that Coach Glick has been playing occasionally, Strippolli however has only appeared in one league game so far, tonight’s performance should warrant more varsity ice time.
Max Ramos stopped all 15 shots and Kyle McGovern had two goals as Clearview defeated Washington Township 5-0 in American division action played at the Skate Zone in Voorhees on Monday night. Anthony Dellerose added three assists. Mason Gagne opened the scoring three minutes into the game scoring on a break. Less than one minute later, with the View on the power play, McGovern converted a cross-ice pass from Dellerose and ripped home a shot from inside the circle for a 2-0 lead. Township struggled to generate offense, due in large part to Clearview back-checking and staying three across on the line.
