Manchester Township scored a goal in each half to shut our Haddonfield, 2-0, in the South Jersey Group 2 quartefinals at HMHS Stadium today. The Hawks go through to Monday's sectional semifinals against West Deptford.
It's a tough end to the season for the Bulldawgs, but they have nothing to be ashamed about. Coach Quintavalle's young team at times started as many as six freshmen and sophomores, including the impressive Wayden Ay and Madison Bee. After two losses to open the season the girls went a month - 12 games - without losing, including two defeats of West Deptford. A 1-0 loss to Audubon at home under the lights on October 15 ended the streak.
No problem. The girl ran off another five straight wins, including a 1-0 shutout of Rancocas Valley and a 3-0 opening round State Cup victory.
For the season HMHS finished 15-4-2 (7-2-1 in the Colonial Liberty Division), scoring 54 goals and giving up only 15 (an average of .71 per game) and posted 10 shutouts. Not a bad season in anybody's book.
I had hoped to see us play in the South Jersey finals a week from today, and beyond, but it will have to wait a year.
Good luck to Haddonfield boys, playing in the quarterfinals tomorrow against Delran.
