Saturday, February 18, 2006 By Susan Hall For three full quarters, both the Lady Villagers from Our Lady of Mercy Academy and Oakcrest battled each other on the basketball court and neither team was able to open up a large lead. Back and forth these two teams went taking turns at regaining the lead. Oakcrest's Whitney Walker was a problem for OLMA's defense the entire game, but down the stretch the Villagers' offense would be successful at aggressively attacking the basket. Expanding on their one point lead, OLMA outscored the Falcons by eight to pick up the 55-46 win at the Ventnor City Shootout girls' basketball tournament. |

High School Soccer: Friday, November 5, 2004 By Susan Hall The first round of the Parochial B South girl's soccer playoff game began for the Villagers from Our Lady of Mercy hosting Moorestown Friends. The Villagers were the third seeded team looking to advance to the next round by recording a victory over the sixth seeded Foxes. The reliable Maria Grady continued to lead her team in scoring and this game wasn't any different. Grady's first half goal was the eventual game winner as Our Lady advanced to the next round with their 2-0 decision over Moorestown Friends. |

High School Soccer: Wednesday, October 27, 2004 By Stephanie Wright Two days ago the Lady Villagers celebrated clinching the Cape-Atlantic Conference National Division II title when they defeated Bridgeton by a 4-2 score. In that game Maira Grady increased her season total goals scored by three to twenty-four. The goals did not come easy for the first place Villagers traveling to Lower Cape May to take on the Lady Capers. With all of the scoring occurring during the second half, both teams picked up their first tie of the second as neither team would in the double overtime sessions. |

High School Soccer: Friday, October 22, 2004 By Stephanie Wright Each year the coaching staff is looking for ways to improve their team's success. Our Lady of Mercy had qualified for this year's post season's playoff and was looking for more. After a one goal victory over Buena two days ago, the Villagers' Meghan Zapeic did not allow a single goal enter the net against St. Joseph. All of the scoring happened in the second half with Maria Grady and Caitlin Hess each scoring twice to lead Our Lady of Mercy to a 4-0 victory. |

Thursday, October 21, 2004 By Crystal Parker For the first time in quite a while that the two opposing teams really didn't know what to expect before the opening whistle was blown to indicate the start of the girls volleyball match. Both the Lady Villagers from Our Lady of Mercy and Moorestown Quakers have been successful winning their games relatively easy. It didn't take long for the host to establish who the better team was on this day. Moorestown controlled and won the first game 25-19, but the second game was determined by Devon Johnston serving seven straight points to break a thirteen all deadlock. |

High School Soccer: Wednesday, October 20, 2004 By Stephanie Wright Each game is sometimes considered a test to see how well a team performs under certain circumstances. When Our Lady of Mercy traveled to Buena to compete in a girl's soccer game, it would be against a team that has proven to themselves that they know how to win. The National Division I leaders had lived up to their success as they played a very exciting game against the Villagers. With the game tied at two goals apiece late in the second half, freshman Marybeth Scharle scored the winning game with a minute and twenty seconds remaining in the game. That goal gave the National Division II leaders the 3-2 victory. |

High School Soccer: Monday, October 18, 2004 By Stephanie Wright When Egg Harbor Township visited Our Lady of Mercy Academy last week, the shot attempts came easy for the Lady Villagers but not the goals. A total of thirty shots were taken but only one made it into the net. The same pattern continued when this time, Wildwood Catholic was the opponent and the only goal needed was again scored by Jen Woldrow. When you get that much production from the second leading scorer on the team, nothing but good rewards or wins can happen. Our Lady's Meghan Zapeic recorded her seventh shutout of the season in route to their 4-0 victory. |

High School Soccer: Monday, October 11, 2004 By Susan Hall When the schedule gives your team a chance to play the first place team in your division, it's an opportunity that the second place team relishes. Sacred Heart was that team looking up in the Cape-Atlantic Conference National Division II at Our Lady of Mercy. The reason Our Lady has been on top is because they have been winning the games they needed to remain in first place. With two goals in the first half, Our Lady was able to post the 3-1 victory to widen their lead in the division. |

High School Soccer: Thursday, September 30, 2004 By Stephanie Wright The girl's soccer team from Our Lady of Mercy Academy has gotten off to a good start winning five of their first six games. So far this season, the team has been successful in taking advantage of their opportunities. Those scoring chances have turned into goals and then into victories. In today's game against the Lady Panthers from Middle Township, OLMA completely out shot the Panthers by a 28-7 margin but were trailing by two goals heading into the second half. Two goals in the second have allowed OLMA to extend this Cape-Atlantic Conference game to one more deciding period. Maria Grady would score her 11th goal of the season in overtime to give OLMA the 3-2 come from behind victory. |

High School Soccer: Tuesday, September 28, 2004 By Stephanie Wright It's never easy starting out a season when most only give you a small chance of coming out on top of your division at the season's end. The Wildcats from St. Joseph have been selected as one of those talented teams that have a real good chance of winning the conference title. So when Our Lady of Mercy Academy was hosting the Wildcats, they knew they had to play above average especially with Tara Davies on the other team. Two players of their own have been scoring goals for Our Lady. Maria Grady and Jen Woldon both scored in this game while Meghan Zapeic earned her fourth shutout of the season. Our Lady went on the defeat St. Joseph 3-0. |
