Wednesday, May 9, 2007 By Jerome Michaels During the season, most of the time a team plays an opponent two times from their division usually on their home field. The first time the Eagles from West Deptford hosted the Green Wave from Audubon, it was a pitcher's duel and West Deptford would hold onto an early lead. Both of these teams were looking to get back on the winning track as they would lose their previous game during their opponent's last at bat. This time at Audubon, the Green Wave would score in every inning except one and were not too hospitable as their six run fifth inning put this game out of reach. Audubon's Nate Cowan and Bob Chiarulli would highlight this game with a homerun each and the Wave would cruise to a 14-3 win. |

Thursday, May 3, 2007 By Stephanie Wright With the cutoff date to qualify for the playoffs not that far away, teams have been competing at a higher level doing whatever they can to extend their regular season. Two teams who just would not give up were West Deptford and Haddon Heights. These teams from the Colonial Conference knew the importance of this softball game and neither one of them gave up even when they were behind on the scoreboard. After West Deptford extended their lead to two runs, the Garnets needed to come up big during their last at bat. Haddon Heights would push across three runs during the bottom of the seventh inning and defeat the Lady Eagles by an 8-7 margin. |

Friday, April 13, 2007 By Susan Hall The Lady Eagles from West Deptford have been an on row starting out their new softball season. By winning their first three games, they have remained amongst the leaders of the Colonial Conference. Also representing the same competitive conference, Audubon dropped their season opener and was looking to win their second game in a row against another undefeated team. West Deptford's Michele Black has been successful keeping their opponents from generating runs and she would continue to do so today. Audubon would score only one run in this game but that was enough for Lauren Beckas to pitch seven scoreless innings for the Green Wave. Audubon's defense came up with some nice plays to preserve their 1-0 victory. |

Tuesday, April 10, 2007 By Clark Washington It's not easy waiting around for something to happen and you have no control over it. Take for instance the Lancers from Holy Cross boys' lacrosse team. Finally getting a chance to play, they still had to wait for the junior varsity to finish their game. By the time the Lancers took the field against West Deptford, this game swung quickly in favor of the home team. Holy Cross jumped out to a five goal lead at halftime and continued to dominate their opponent behind Paul Colflesh and Sean Neary three goal performance. The Lancers would start off the season with a 12-4 victory. |

Black Horse skate with only eight players and rallied in the third period, but just ran out of gas.

Joe Sauer tied the game early in the second period for Black Horse scoring the first of his two goals, but West Deptford scored two goals over the next five minutes, one on a blast by JT Flood to take a 3-1 lead.

Wednesday, September 27, 2006 By Susan Hall It was a game that both teams played well enough to come away with the win. Excellent team play, stick control and aggressive play could seen at Haddonfield were the Bulldogs were hosting West Deptford in a Colonial Conference Liberty Division field hockey game. This was the second time these two teams have met and for the second time, Haddonfield had the answers in defeating the Lady Eagles. Working together as a single unit on the field, Haddonfield's defense was able to preserve a 1-0 lead during the second half and remain undefeated. |

Tuesday, May 9, 2006 By Joyce Sagerty With so much focus on qualifying for the upcoming softball tournament, there's a tendency to forget about winning the conference or division title. Triton needed every win during the regular season in order to keep pace with or move ahead of Shawnee in the Olympic Conference Patriot Division. The Mustangs' victory over the Shawnee yesterday plus their 11-1 win over West Deptford has pushed them on top of the race. For West Deptford, the loss has put them in the position of winning their next two games in order to qualify them for the post season. |

Friday, May 5, 2006 By Jason Brown Baseball can be a very interesting game where sometimes the bounces on the field just don't go your way. When those times occur, the main focus is to just get the outs in order to get through an inning. On the other side of the players' bench, there's a different feeling that the players don't want it to end. In a Colonial Conference game played at Audubon, the high flying Eagles from West Deptford were the recipients of everything going right for them. Starting pitcher Justin Hilt drove in seven runs with his bat and West Deptford cruised to a 22-6 win over Audubon. |

Friday, May 5, 2006 By Stephanie Wright West Deptford was very impressive with their defense during the early moments of their game against the Lady Panthers from Collingswood. Rachel Mehaffey helped the Eagles jump out to an early two goal lead and knew that the entire team would have to continue to play at a high level against a very successful Lady Panthers team. Collingswood, after coming up short scoring a goal on their first five shot attempts, continued to apply pressure on West Deptford's defense and was rewarded by scoring eight straight goals and pull away from a determined Eagles team. Collingswood would pick up their tenth win in a row with their 18-7 victory. |

Tuesday, May 2, 2006 By Susan Hall There are several teams looking ahead on their schedule trying to find out how many games they need to win in order to qualify for the upcoming tournament. The Lady Tartans from Highland was one of those teams as every game is a necessary win in order to finish with a five hundred percentage record or better by next Friday. West Deptford would take their two game winning streak to Highland which included winning four of their last five games. The Tartans put all of their opponent's recent success behind them and went on to defeat West Deptford 8-5 in a non-league softball game. |

Thursday, April 13, 2006 By Clark Washington Just two days ago, St. Augustine Prep boys' lacrosse team celebrated picking up their first win of the season by defeating Winslow Township. That momentum would carry over against their game at West Deptford where the Hermits would hold a 2-1 lead at halftime against the undefeated Eagles. Austin Tracey and Max Voumard scored back to back goals before halftime for St. Augustine. But the second half would be a different out for West Deptford as they received three goals from Matt Nicolosi and three goals from Steve Helmuth and outscore their opponent 10-1. The final score was 11-3 and West Deptford would keep their unbeaten record and win their fifth game in a row. |

Wednesday, March 1, 2006 By Mike Costantino Danny Cavallaro and Tom Hopkins each scored two goals and Gary Scott and Phil Rivello chipped in with a goal and as assist as Timber Creek defeated West Deptford 7-1 and won the Tier 2 championship at Hollydell before a standing room only crowd on Wednesday night. Timber Creek took control early as Scott scored just five minutes into the game while the West Deptford faithful were derisively chanting his name. Moment’s later defenseman Matt Walsh made a diving stop on a clearing pass by West Deptford, and Walsh floated the puck towards the net where Dan Lempa was stationed and his one timer made it 2-0. |

Monday, February 27, 2006 By Mike Costantino Luke DeHart scored in the opening minutes of overtime as West Deptford rallied for a 4-3 victory over Timber Creek and force a deciding game on Wednesday night at Hollydell to determine the Tier 2 Championship. Ryan Johnson led the Timber Creek attack with two goals. After the teams traded goals in the opening period, Johnson for Timber Creek and Mike Fleshman for West Deptford, both goal tenders controlled most of the game as Evan Betz and Derek Cafasso starred in nets. With the score tied at 2-2 entering the final period and both teams playing strong defensively, it felt like whoever scored next would win. Well Phil Rivello gave Timber Creek the lead with Dan Visco getting the assist and it looked like that goal would stand up. |

Friday, February 17, 2006 By Vincent Lewis West Deptford and Delran took the ice Friday night at the Hollydell Ice Arena participating in a Tier II playoff game. Both of these teams were bounced out of the winner's bracket and were looking for another chance to advance through the loser's bracket. After a slow start where only one goal was scored, Cory Jackmuff took matters in his own hands. After scoring three of the four goals netted during the second period, Jackmuff's success help West Deptford posted an 8-2 victory over Delran. |

Friday, January 27, 2006 By Mike Costantino Mark Lamberto is not hard to find on the ice, he’s arguably the smallest player in the SJHSIHL, but on Friday night at Hollydell, he was the best player on the ice, especially in the first period as Timber Creek defeated West Deptford 5-1. Five minutes into the game Lamberto sent in Tom Hopkins and his shot found the net for a 1-0 lead. Given a chance to tie on the power play minutes later, West Deptford was stoned by Derek Cafasso on a great scoring opportunity, and Lamberto picked up the puck and he flew down the ice with Phil Rivello and joining them on the break was Danny Cavallaro, Lamberto hit Cavallaro and his quick shot gave Timber Creek a 2-0 lead. |

Monday, November 7, 2005 By Susan Hall Time and time again the coaches send their players onto the field with the expectation of following every set of guidelines they must execute to coming away victorious. The relationship between player and coach is one that some would not agree with, but it is necessary for eleven players to work as one to complete their objective. West Deptford hosting Collingswood were two teams that have demonstrated their ability to win because of their relationship with their coaching staff. But sometimes it’s those individual performances that can change a game. Katie Feeley and Stefanie Bucholski were two players highlighting this team effort in defeating West Deptford 5-1 in a South Jersey Group II semi-finals game. |

Monday, November 7, 2005 By Mike Costantino Cory Jackmuff had a hat trick and Evan Betz had a strong game in goal as West Deptford defeated Cherry Hill West 7-2 in Tier II action played at the Skate Zone in Voorhees on Monday night. West Deptford took control early scoring two goals in the first period as Matthew Bennet and William Baker Jr. both scored their second goal of the season. Cherry Hill got one back early in the second period as Justin Hoch found Brett Cybulski in the slot to make it 2-1. Jackmuff then scored the next two goals, first on a blast from the top of the circle and then on a short-handed breakaway to put West Deptford up 4-1. |
