Zac Gallen was the bat boy who sat in the front row for the photo when Bishop Eustace Prep won the Joe Hartmann Diamond Classic title in 2004. His older brother, Jay, was a star as a junior pitcher for the Crusaders in those days. "I thought, 'Wow, this is big time,' " Zac Gallen said. "I knew I wanted to get one of these one day. " Like his brother eight years ago, Gallen sparked Bishop Eustace to the championship of the prestigious 16-team invitational tournament.

It started raining harder at halftime. For Cherokee, it was like a splash of cold water in the face. "We just came out with more intensity in the second half," senior attack TJ Ahern said. "We were much more focused. " Cherokee pulled away from a 3-3 halftime tie and scored an 8-6 victory over Eastern yesterday in an Olympic American boys' lacrosse game in the driving rain in the Chiefs' football stadium.

A spry sophomore who had only carried the football in junior varsity games before last night is a big reason Cherokee avoided its first 0-3 start since the program's inaugural year in 1976. Sean Mayers rushed for 84 yards and a touchdown on 10 carries - all in the second half - to spark the Chiefs to a 23-21 win over Willingboro. His fresh legs and nifty feet produced a couple of highlight-reel runs as well as the touchdown that put Cherokee up for good. Pat Davitt also helped kick the Chimeras (2-1)

This was the game that Williamstown wanted to play. The Braves wanted to get on the bus - every other year in the regular season, not just now and then in the playoffs - and travel to Marlton to face Cherokee. Williamstown pushed for the creation of the West Jersey Football League for games such as this. The Braves wanted to be part of the American Division for games such as this. "They are the most solid program in South Jersey," Williamstown coach Frank Fucetola said of Cherokee.

With 4 minutes, 27 seconds remaining in the game, Shawnee coach Joe Kessler emptied his bench. The Renegades had only 36 points at the time, including just one field goal in the second half. Cherokee's tenacious defense made the difference yesterday in an imposing 69-46 victory over Shawnee in a tournament cutoff-day battle between school district rivals and teams that are ranked in the top 10 in South Jersey by The Inquirer. "We have depth at every position and we demand that they play defense," Cherokee coach Ron Powell said after the victory in front of a near-capacity crowd in the Chiefs' gymnasium.
