The Pirates Week in Review for April 18-24 has arrived. Take a look back at the week that was in Cinnaminson High School varsity sports.
Baseball: The Pirates baseball team went 3-1 this week with wins over Florence (16-4), Pemberton (5-2) and Sterling. The lone loss came against Cedar Creek. The Sterling (15-6) and Cedar Creek (9-4) games were part of the Hedelt Tournament at Oakcrest High School on Saturday. The win over Pemberton upped the Pirates Patriot Division record to 3-0. Cinnaminson is now 6-4 overall on the 2016 season. Winning pitchers this week were Craig Horsley (first varsity win), Brandon Staub (3-0) and Joe Cody. Jack Conville picked up a save in the Pemberton game.
Boy’s Lacrosse: Cinnaminson picked up its first win the season on Tuesday with a 4-3 victory over Williamstown on Tuesday during senior night. The Pirates played just twice this week. Their second game was a 15-2 loss to Holy Cross, which resulted in a season sweep by the Lancers. Cinnaminson is now 1-8 on the year. Mike O’Brien saw action in his first two games of the year this week after coming back from an injury. He scored the Pirates two goals in the loss to Holy Cross.
Boy’s Tennis: Boy’s tennis continued to post wins this week, going 2-0 to up their record to 6-2. The wins came against Pemberton by a 5-0 score and Palmyra by a 4-1 score. The Pirates are riding a six-match win streak. The Pirates competed in the BC Open at Veterans Park in Hamilton on Tuesday. Second singles Eddie Runquist advanced to the semifinals before falling to Moorestown. The second doubles team of George Rider and James Merget advanced to the quarterfinals before falling to Shawnee.
Boy’s Track and Field: The track and field program competed against Bordentown for a divisional meet on Monday, picking up a 104-36 win to move to 2-0 on the year. The Pirates competed at the Bridgeton Relays on Saturday morning. The boy’s squad finished in fifth place with 34 total points in the small division.
Boy’s Volleyball: All the boy’s volleyball team has done lately is win. The Pirates extended their win streak this past week to nine in a row after a 2-0 win over Moorestown Thursday afternoon. The nine-match win streak was snapped that same afternoon with a 2-0 loss to Pennsauken. It was the second round of the Backyard Brawl. Other wins this past week came against Camden Academy Charter and Northern Burlington. The Pirates are now 10-5 on the year.
Girl’s Lacrosse: The Pirates played only twice this week and went 1-1 to move their record to 6-4. Cinnaminson picked up a 17-2 win over Maple Shade on Tuesday and lost to Holy Cross 19-4 on Friday, which resulted in a season sweep for the Lancers. Jenna Mullin led the Pirates with five goals against the Wildcats, while Julia Averill finished with four. Katie O’Connor had two goals in the loss to Holy Cross.
Girl’s Track and Field: Cinnaminson took on Bordentown Monday in a dual meet with the boy’s team and also came away victorious. The Pirates won the meet to move to 2-0 with a score of 95-36. On Saturday the Pirates traveled to the George Rowland Relays at Haddon Township High School.
Golf: The Pirates golf team played to a 3-0 record this week to move to 6-0 overall. The wins came against Holy Cross, Pemberton and New Egypt. The win over New Egypt was the Pirates second of the season. The win over Pemberton was quite impressive based on the fact that the Pirates were missing two regular golfers from their top six. Sophomore Jake Weick competed in his first varsity match and shot a 42. Cinnaminson finished fifth at the County Open on Monday.
Softball: Pirates softball went 2-1 in a rain shortened week to move their record to 5-8. The two wins came against Maple Shade by a 4-1 score and Florence by a 6-2 score. The win over Florence was in the first round of the BCSL Tournament. The Pirates visit Bordentown on Monday for the second round of the BCSL Tournament. The Pirates were slated to play in the Palmyra Tournament on Saturday, but rain canceled the event.
