The Lady Crusaders advanced easily to the semifinals with their 6-goal performance against the 8th seeded Haddonfield field hockey team. The top seeded Bishop Eustace squad will now host the Lady Eagles from West Deptford in the South Jersey Group 2 tournament. This game was highlighted by Megan Foster's 3-goal performance as Eustace never let up on their quest of taking over this game from the start.

Bishop Eustace started this year's tournament with a first round bye and waiting for the Haddonfield against Haddon Township match to complete. The Lady Bulldogs earned the chance to move on to today's games by defeating Township 2-0. The Crusaders knew that their opponent was capable of scoring goals and took no chances as they scored early and often. Foster recorded a hat trick while Brittney Singer added two goals and Lauren Kramer chipped in one goal to finalize the scoring for Bishop Eustace.
