DiOrio's Kick Only Score In Panther's Victory

Collingswood won a long defensive struggle at the home of the Haddon Township Hawks. Ted DiOrio's 4th quarter field goal proved to be the only score, as the Panthers were able to survive the battle with the victory. Both teams ended the day at 1-1, Collingswood after losing the week before to Paulsboro, and the Hawks defeating the Thundering Herd of Woodbury. This makes Collingswood's meeting with Haddon Heights next week even more significant, with Heights being the only undefeated team left in the Colonial Conference.

High School Ice Hockey:
Warwick Too Little Too Late To Battle East

Friday, September 25, 1998

By Forrest Robleto
SJSports Staff Writer

Warwick, a midget team from Bucks County, Pennsylvania, came to scrimmage Cherry Hill East Friday at the Coliseum in Voorhees. The Warwick team got caught in traffic and arrived late. One of the two referees refused to wait and the other, John Butley, apparently decided he was a good enough referee to do the game all by himself. The game was choppy and lopsided. Butley eventually called 26 penalties, 5 of which were misconduct's in a game that ended after two periods, 8-2 Cherry Hill.
