Story From Ocean County Observer

Lions over Lions

It was the battle of the Lions as the Lacey Lions devoured Cherry Hill West, 36-27.

For Lacey, Kyle Casaletto (103 pounds), Steve VanErde (112), Phil Craft (125), Matt Conrad (145), Justin Molzon (152), Tyler Giglio (172), Justin Pandorf (215), and Mike Stupiello (HWT) scored wins, assisting the team to a 1-0 record.

"Molzon got it going for us," Lacey head coach Tom Pfister said, referring to Molzon's fall over Cherry Hill's Spewack at 1:20.

Also scoring an impressive pinfall for the Lions was Pandorf over Cherry Hill's Stewart at only :39 into the contest.

Pfister summarized his team's showing against the "other' Lions.

"Down low, we were pretty tough," Pfister said, referring to weights 103-140. "Then from 145 to heavyweight we're solid. Senior Phil Craft sealed it (the win over Cherry Hill's Sparacio by 9-3 decision) for us."
