Saturday, October 19, 2002 By Jerome Michaels Before the season even started, there was a game that on paper resembled the makings of two high school football teams playing for their version of a superbowl. High expectations were placed on both the Woodrow Wilson Tigers and the Fighting Irish from Camden Catholic. As the season progressed, only one of these teams has lived up to the predictions that many had expected. Camden Catholic (6-0) would be that team as the Irish won their sixth straight game by defeating Woodrow Wilson 10-0. |

Monday, October 14, 2002 By Graig White On a day when most students were home on Columbus Day doing whatever it is they do, the football athletes from Gloucester and Salem geared up for what would to be a very entertaining game. It was a clear but somewhat windy day but with the way both teams can run the ball you would not have thought it would be a factor, and for the most part it wasn't. Both punters struggled and some of the passes would make duck hunters lining up their targets. |

Monday, October 14, 2002 By Susan HallSJSports Special Correspondent The opening round of the South Jersey Coaches Tournament began for the Lady Red Raiders from Ocean City hosting the Lady Eagles from West Deptford. Both teams knew they had to win or they would be eliminated in the first round. The first half of this game was very physical with each team trying to set the tempo looking for that elusive goal. West Deptford would get credit for the only goal recorded when the ball apparently crossed the line right as the goalkeeper picked up the ball. West Deptford (10-1-0) would move on to the second round of tournament. |
