Val Soltys led Haddon Twp. (8-3) with five goals in the victory. Dante Nessola and Aaron Gansky scored three goals apiece for Highland (9-1) in the loss.

Manhasset (NY) 9 Rumson-Fair Haven 7 | Boys

Harvard commit Jack Peterson scored two straight goals as part of a 3-0 4th quarter to give the Long Island defending NY state champion a win at Rutgers over NJ state champ RFH.  Manhasset is ranked #4 in the latest Nike/US Lacrosse national polls.   The first half was a 4-4 draw and RFH rallied for two straight goals in the third to tie the game at six heading into the fourth quarter.  Manhasset stays unbeaten with the win, while Rumson falls to 9-4 on the year.
