Event Spotlight: Sunday, January 5, 2003 SJSports Staff Writer Nick Stavrou's goal with 29 second left in the first half loomed large; it gave the Dallas Sidekicks (6-15) a 5-2 lead in a game that was controlled early by the visitors. The Philadelphia KiXX (15-3) and Joel Shanker though had other intentions; a re-start goal with 12 seconds left in the half brought the KiXX back to within one goal at 5-4. |

Saturday, January 4, 2003 By Jerome Michaels Bounce, bounce, bounce...dribble, score, cheer was finally here for basketball fans to enjoy on the fourth day of the New Year. The Vikings from Eastern traveled to Cherokee High School to take on the Chiefs for their first divisional contest of the season. Initially, Eastern jumped out taking control of this Olympic Conference American Division boy's basketball game converting on early chances. Cherokee would respond in the middle two quarters outscoring Eastern 29-14 to pull away with a narrow 41-38 victory. |

Friday, January 3, 2003 By Vincent Lewis It was a surprise to find out that most schools start their scheduled games with the varsity squad taking center stage and then the junior varsity basketball players. Not today at Cougar County at Cherry Hill West. The junior varsity players from Timber Creek and West would get a rare coverage showcasing their talents before the main event. Both teams would struggle in the initial quarter, but the Cougars behind the home crowd began to take advantage of turnovers and pull away from the Chargers. The junior varsity Cherry Hill West Cougars posted a 61-48 victory. |

Friday, January 3, 2003 By David W. Unkle The Phantoms top line of Mark Greig, newcomer Joe Sacco and Peter White combined for ten points on the night as the Philadelphia Phantoms toppled the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins. After being shutout in their two previous games, the offense re-emerged as the Phantoms scored five or more goals for only the fifth time this season and their first such game since a 6-5 on November 22. |

Friday, January 3, 2003 By Patrick Williams PHILADELPHIA - Bright spots were lacking for the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins after last night's 5-1 Phantoms rout at the First Union Spectrum. About the only thing that Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (15-16-2-3, 35 points) can take solace in is the fact that the American Hockey League schedule has only three more meetings remaining with the Phantoms this season. The Philadelphia (14-16-1-2, 33 points) club that split the series' first six matchups with the Penguins entering last night's game has undergone its latest makeover, one that suddenly makes the last-place Phantoms a dangerous opponent. |
