West Deptford Sports Wrap: Teams Sweep

had one of those rare days Monday where no one could be stopped. From to the boys’ and girls’ lacrosse teams scoring a pair of big wins, it was a perfect day for the Eagles.

Here’s how it broke down:

Softball

The Eagles used a two-out rally in the second inning to blow up the scoreboard and sink Collingswood, plating 12 runs in the inning in a 19-2 blowout Monday. West Deptford strung together 14 hits on the day, and took every advantage of four Collingswood errors—including a dropped popup in the second that would’ve ended the inning. Sydney Ponto went the distance on the mound for West Deptford. 

Girls’ Lacrosse

After going to halftime with Kingsway tied, 3-3, West Deptford found a way in the second half, outscoring the Dragons 10-7 to win, 13-10, Monday. Paige Paratore and Rachel Krott got it done for the Eagles, scoring five and four goals, respectively.

Boys’ Lacrosse

The Eagles shrugged off a less-than-stellar first quarter to take a 5-4 lead at halftime against Bishop Eustace Monday, before shutting the door on defense in the second half in a 10-5 win that kept West Deptford perfect in the conference.

Golf

The Eagles remained undefeated, easily beating Woodbury, 175-215, at RiverWinds Monday. For a change, it was the heat that was the factor, instead of the wind, as Matt Santarelli stepped up to lead West Deptford with a 42.
