Déjà Vu As Moorestown Continues Streak With Win Over Shawnee

Friday, April 5, 2002

By Gary Steiner
SJSports Staff Writer

The last time Moorestown and Shawnee met on a lacrosse field it was for the state championship last June 9, where the Lady Quakers dominated in a 12-2 win. On Wednesday, Shawnee opened their 2002 season with an 18-0 blowout of Pennsauken, and were definitely looking to try out their stuff against their arch-rivals. Snow flurries suprised the fans in some strange April weather, but there was nothing strange about the play on the field as the Lady Quakers showed they were ready to make another run at the state title with a convincing 11-5 win over the Lady Renegades.

Garry Gait, the NLL's second leading scorer is equally a threat and often has more scoring opportunities as teams key on Paul. Another guy I really like on the Power is Del Halladay (Washington's third leading goal scorer).
