Pope John 3 Seton Hall Prep 1

After starting the year at 0-3, the Lions were due to fight for a victory and get into the win column. That’s exactly what happened in West Orange as the Jarosiewicz brothers (Luke and Jack) each scored key goals in a Gordon Conference win over the Pirates. Tyler Paluzzi made 23 stops on the night and Matt Hughes buried an empty-net goal in the late stages of the third period to secure the win. Pope John and Seton Hall Prep each share 1-3 records on the season.

Rumson-Fair Haven 1 St. John Vianney 0

Dominic Panke’s power-play goal with 26.7 seconds left in the third period gave Rumson-Fair Haven a last-minute win to support the stellar play of Alex Baret in the net.  Baret had 19 saves for the shutout, many of which were high quality.  RFH is 2-1-2 following a 2-2 tie with state power Chatham with a win over a Shore rival.
