On Sunday night, the Washington Township JV League team played its first league game against a powerful and tenacious Eastern Club. This game had all the makings of a great contest and neither team would disappoint their fans. In a penalty-filled up and down game, skating and hard hitting was the key for both clubs.

High School Ice Hockey: Friday, September 25, 1998
By Forrest Robleto
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.

High School Ice Hockey: Sunday, Feb. 8, 1998
By Rick Murro After a furious, physical but scoreless 1st period the Washington Township JVB Ice Hockey Club went on to defeat the Shawnee Renegades by a score of 4 to 1, capturing 1st place in the SJHSIHL JVB Division.
Township goals were scored by #65 Eric Marano at 10:28 of the 2nd period, assisted by #9 captain Scott Singer. #35 Mike Mazzuca scored Township's 2nd goal of the period with the assist coming again from #9 Scott Singer.

High School Ice Hockey: Friday, Jan. 30, 1998
By Gregg Williams If you're tired of the clutching and holding of the NHL, come out and watch end to end play, big hits, great saves, great plays, fast skating, and players who give it their all on every shift. It is the South Jersey High School Hockey League. On Friday, January 30th the Cherry Hill East Cougars (SJHSIHL Tier I) and the Edgewood Eagles (SJHSIHL Tier II) faced off at Hollydell Ice Center in a very exciting game that left no one a loser. Some of the eager fans, like Mrs. Anita Bullock and Mr. Douglas Roemer, said the 7-7 tie was truly entertaining.
The game looked gloomy for Edgewood, with only eight skaters and one goalie (recovering from the flu) able to play that night. Of the eight players, one player only had a single hockey glove to wear. Cherry Hill's prospects didn't look terrific either, with two players sitting out for 12 and 14 minutes each. This was a carryover from an incident in their last game.

Washington Township Ice Hockey Club:
By Gregg Williams December began with a sound 8-3 victory over Lenape. Gray Shaneberger led the way with a Hat Trick and 1 assist. Goalies Mark Zlatkin and Brian Migliorisi combined to make 20 saves as the Varsity kept Lenape pinned in their own zone most of the evening. Other offensive starts for Township were Nick Gariffo (2 goals, 1 assist), and James Christian and Jeff Slotnick with a goal each.
In the much anticipated rematch with Eastern, it was Township who desperately needed a win to stay in the hunt for the South Jersey Crown. Eastern handed Varsity its only loss in South Jersey this year.

Washington Township Ice Hockey Club:
By Art Redd Ice hockey has become very popular in South Jersey over the past 5 years. No, not the NHL, we're talking youth hockey clubs. Take for instance the Washington Township Ice Hockey Club where two eighth grade standouts accomplished an extra ordinary feat. The Club was happy to announce that Adam Zaccaria and Billy Verdecchio would represent the Delaware Valley at the 1998 Quebec International Pee Wee Tournament in February.
Try-outs were held and over seventy-five 13-year-olds came out and tried to land a spot on the team. The finalists traveled to Toronto over Christmas and participated in the Bell Cup. Next they would return to Canada six weeks later.
