Jersey Sports Zone brings you three more great Thursday soccer matchups including a pair of one-goal games from the girls’ ranks.  Check out the highlights throughout the night!


Watchung Hills 4 Pingry 3 (OT) | Girls

The Warriors and Big Blue delivered one of the most exciting soccer games to date in the 2022 season. After trailing 1-0 at the half, Watchung Hills (11-0) rallied once – and then a second time – with Ava Prisco’s golden goal in the 89th minute being the difference as the Warriors edged past Pingry (6-4) for the victory. Pingry’s Maya Muwayhid and Watchung Hills’ Ava Tomasso each scored a pair of goals.

Allentown 3 Hightstown 2 | Girls

Allentown (10-1) defeated Hightstown (7-5) 3-2 to pick up a sixth straight win. The Redbirds without starting goalie Ryan Keefe held onto a 1-0 lead at halftime on a goal from Martha Olorunnisola. Sophomore Amanda Hoglund kicked off the second with a score but Hightstown answered with a pair of goals from Charlotte Garcia and Angelina Benitez to tie the game at 2-2 late. However, Amanda Hoglund would score again in the 72nd minute to lead Allentown to victory.

Holmdel 4 Shore Regional 0 | Boys

David Weiner scored a pair of goals to lead the Hornets to a 10-1 mark in 2022.  Weiner opened the scoring off a feed from Stepan Kapranov in the 13th minute.  Kapranov added a second assist on a beautiful service to Aidan Hynes who headed home the second goal of the match.  Winer and Jaime Palmer added second-half goals.  Holmdel will be the #3 seed in the upcoming Shore Conference boys’ soccer tournament.
