Eleven-year-old Billy Doyle, Jr. of Hammonton, N.J. was that kid during the Sunday’s Eagles game against the New York Jets from the sidelines. Billy was the winner of Auntie Anne's Kickoff Kid Sweepstakes and ran and retrieved the kicking tee after the Eagles kick-off. Billy entered the sweepstakes at the Auntie Anne's Game Tent located in the Headhouse Plaza at Lincoln Financial Field.

It was a defensive battle that both head coaches had to be proud about their performances. Just like a chess match, the coaching staff was working hard looking for the right time to move in for the checkmate. The Minutemen from Washington Township played extremely well on defense and were looking to hand Shawnee their first loss of the season. It wasn’t easy, but the Renegades from Shawnee were the ones that took advantage of the limited chances handed to them by their defense. A second quarter touchdown and field goal was enough points for the Renegades to win their sixth straight game by a 10-0 margin.

Monday, October 20, 2003

Zak Booth had a hat trick as Paul VI defeated Cherry Hill East 5-3 in Tier 1 action in Voorhees. After a scoreless first period, thanks in a large part to the play of Eric Lake in goal for Paul VI, East controlled the games first three minutes peppering Lake with six consecutive shots. East finally broke through midway in the second period. Vaks was able to beat Lake with a quick shot in the slot and a 1-0 lead for Cherry Hill. Moments later Booth would tie the game at 1-1 when Rich Ferro kept the puck alive in the corner. Peter Antinore skated out and found Booth in the slot and he re-directed the pass into the net. Twenty seconds later Booth struck again as he skated down the left side and his shot seem to deflect off a defenseman’s skate and into the goal for a 2-1 lead.
