Eric Boehm scored with less than three minutes remaining in the game, as Rancocas Valley upset Collingswood 3-2 in a tier two SJHSIHL game played at Hollydell on Friday. Collingswood took the lead as they scored right after a power-play expired, as Smitley scored with Eric Sooy assisting. That was the only goal of the first period, as both teams played it close to the vest and played solid defense, each waiting for the other to make a mistake.

In boys' basketball on Thursday, the Overbrook Rams defeated rival sister school Edgewood 72-48. One part of the Edgewood Eagles' game plan was to get Jamar Smith in foul trouble and they succeeded, but John Galaszewski scored 15, and Bryan Foster scored 17. This helped to pick up the offensive play for the Rams. Edgewood missed a lot of lay-ups.

Winning Ways: Wednesday, January 5, 2000
By Gregory "Graig" White
As a Conditioning Coach, a lot of time and effort goes into creating protocols that will enhance an athlete's ability to perform. None of this will matter if you don't have your athlete's head into it. No matter how well we prepare our athletes physically, optimal performance will not happen if the athlete does not believe in his or her preparation. When this happens, it is safe to assume that the athlete is lacking self-confidence.
