Just when you thought it might not have been possible to make the West Jersey Football League’s Diamond Division any tougher, the league went ahead and did it.
Barring the approval of any appeals, Salem County’s five high school football teams will be scattered across two divisions for the next two years, with four of them assigned to what already was the most demanding Group I division in the state.
South Jersey Group I champion Woodstown, Central Jersey runner-up Schalick, Penns Grove and Salem will be aligned with 2022 state champion Woodbury and 2023 state runnerup Glassboro in what currently is called Division 6, basically the Diamond Division. All six teams were playoff teams this past season and had a combined record of 44-26.
“We’ve always been a loaded division; welcome to the party, Schalick and Glassboro,” Penns Grove coach John Emel said. “They kept the tradition of keeping all the best Group I schools together. I’ll make a prediction right now: The team that goes to the state finals comes out of that division.”
Schalick and Glassboro are new to the division, while Paulsboro was moved out in this round of WJFL reshuffling after going 1-7 this past season.
Schalick was promoted for its success the last two seasons. The Cougars, 0-7 in coach Mike Wilson’s first season in 2020, won the Horizon Division each of the last two years while posting overall records of 7-3 and 11-1. They lost to Glassboro in the Central Jersey championship game.
“With the amount of kids we have coming back, we’re ready for the jump,” Wilson said. “It’s playoffs in the regular season; it’s going to be fun. It absolutely is a top-heavy division, it’s going to be all good teams, but with the program we have coming back, I think we’ll be fine.”
The only negative for Wilson, a staunch traditionalist, is the possibility of his team playing three Saturday games within the division depending on how the schedule falls. Woodbury, Penns Grove and Salem traditionally play their home games on Saturdays.
“I’m more upset about that than anything else,” he said. “I grew up always playing Friday night. I’ve only played a handful of Saturday games. That’s the only thing I don’t like about the whole thing. Everything else is fine. We’ll play whoever you give us.”
Salem coach Danny Mendoza was less concerned about the stoutness of the division as the size of it. Five teams is comfortable, but six or more, he said, takes the flexibility of scheduling out of coaches’ hands.
“It’s not about it being tougher, it’s about it being to a point where you can’t balance your schedule,” he said. “They’ve pretty much made your schedule for you.
“We’re not scared of anybody, we’re not scared of competition. You look at our schedule last year, we ran from no one. we ran from zero people. This isn’t along the lines of ducking any smoke or competition. It’s along the lines of giving our guys a chance to go play other teams and test our waters. This is insane.”
Pennsville, meanwhile, is the county team on the outside. The Eagles went from 1-8 to 6-4 this past season and were the first team out of the South Jersey Group I playoff alignment, but they assigned one of the league’s seven-team divisions – Division 15 – with Lindenwold, Gloucester Catholic, Clayton, Pitman, Buena and Gateway.
“I thought we’d be with more of the teams we were last year (in the Royal Division) still,” Eagles coach Mike Healy said. “It’s a completely new division. We hoped we’d be in a higher division, but that’s not how it turned out.”
Pitman and Gateway are the only teams they played last year in Royal Division. The teams in the new division were a combined 22-45 last season, with only the upward-trending Eagles (6-4) and Pitman (6-4) posting winning records. The Eagles may have a better chance to win a division, but harder to build a lot of power points.
“It’d definitely be exciting to have a chance to win the division, for sure,” Healy said.
Schools have a chance to appeal the alignment before Dec. 15. Pennsville is “definitely” considering it largely based on geography and competitive balance.

A Big Future ahead
Penns Grove junior wins $40,000 Big Future scholarship from College Board, her future involves helping her community
By Al Muskewitz
Riverview Sports News
PENNS GROVE – Serenity Woodards thought she was just going to a school-wide assembly to hear about an academic program she already had completed when she walked into the Penns Grove High School auditorium Wednesday morning. And then they made her sit through it by herself.
So, you can imagine her surprise when the moderator called her up to the stage from the back of the room. Now, multiply that surprise by a thousand when, in front of the entire student body, they handed her a big check to use at whatever college she chooses to attend after graduating in 2025.
Woodards was the recipient of the Big Future Scholarship, a $40,000 grant awarded by the College Board to help students find their way on the path towards a successful life.
It was tightly guarded secret all the way up to the moment of truth.
“I knew we had an hour assembly today,” Serenity said. “I was sitting with my friends in School Base at the Youth Center and then my teacher made me sit by myself and I’m like I have to sit by myself for an hour. I was very upset, and then they kept calling my name and I’m thinking I’m going to go home, my mom’s here.
“And then they’re like, ‘You won 40 thousand dollars.’ I’m like, ‘I won 40 thousand dollars?’ It was very exciting and a very humbling experience. I never thought I would actually win. I was just signing up. It was a possibility, but I never thought I would actually be lucky enough and grateful to win $40,000 to go to college.”
Woodards is the first Penns Grove student to receive the award and just the second from New Jersey in the last two years to receive the big prize. College Board regularly awards $500 scholarships and randomly selects two students nationwide each month to receive the big prize from those who have fulfilled the six-step Big Future requirements.
“Serenity has made history with this,” Penns Grove principal Lory O’Brien said.
Woodards is a junior with a varsity of interests. Outside of the classroom she cheers, participates in the Marching Band’s Color Guard and serves as a manager on the girls basketball team.
Academically, she’s a high achiever interested in pursuing psychology and social work in college and has several schools in mind. She is particularly interested in attending an HBCU (Historically Black College and University) and has schools like Spellman, North Carolina A&T and Delaware State on her list, as well as Rowan and the University of Pennsylvania. Her mother, Keysha Adams, went to an HBCU, Grambling.
“I love everything that an HBCU stands for as a safe space for black and brown people and how it was built up,” Serenity said. “I’ve also always grown up in a space where I see people who look like me, so I think that’ll be like my home away from home.
“I’ve always been interested in psychology and I like being able to explain to people why they think the way they do or why they act the way they do. And to be able to help people with their mental health especially coming from the community I do you see lots of people go with a mental illness untreated and I want to be able to help that.”
Woodards was surrounded by her family at the time of the presentation. Mother Keysha, father Al, brother Al and godmother Justine Hughes all attended the assembly, hidden behind a curtain on the stage until the time came for the big reveal.
They all were just as excited as their daughter.
“I’m speechless,” Adams said before summoning the words to express her pride. “I always knew Serenity would do great things. To know this young lady for 16 years, she can do whatever she wants. She’s amazing. She came out with personality. She’s been writing her own ticket her whole life.”
“I’m just proud of my princess,” papa Al said.
The program and scholarship was presented by Dianna Frank, the College Board’s Senior Director of State and District Partnerships. She explained the program and the process to the assembled students and encouraged them to get involved; many already are, by a show of hands.
“I’m just really excited she’s taking the steps earlier in high school than waiting until senior year; really important that she started early,” Frank said of Woodards. “I think the exciting part was she had already done all of these important steps and we were able to reward it and show her classmates that it does mean something to her and could mean something to them.”
Woodards is certainly a believer.
“It really is only a few clicks and it could change your entire path for the rest of your life,” she said. “I now have less to worry about how I’m going to college or how I’m going to pay for it. You never know when it can be you, so you should just believe in yourself and try.”

Riverview Sports News
WOODSTOWN — Some time later tonight Woodstown football coach John Adams is going to pop the film of Friday night’s game into the player, get to the final three minutes and wonder what do the Wolverines have to do to catch a break in the playoffs.
The Wolverines have gone deep in the playoffs each of the last three years and all three have ended short of the goal and in gut-wrenching fashion.
None were as painful as the fate that befell them Friday night.
By most accounts, the Wolverines seemed destined to get through to the state title game. But Glassboro broke their hearts with a trick play that went for 60 yards and a touchdown with 50 seconds left, propelling the Bulldogs to a 14-10 win in front of nearly 2,000 fans at Clint Ware Field.
Glassboro (9-3) will now play Mountain Lakes (10-2) next Sunday at Rutgers for the Group I state championship.
The Wolverines (9-3) have had the hardest luck in the playoffs. They were taken out by Woodbury in the final five minutes of the South Jersey Group I final two years ago and they lost to Paulsboro in the second round last year in a game where turnovers did them in.
“The deeper you get in the playoffs the tougher they get,” Wolverines quarterback Max Webb said. “You can’t ever expect to have a blowout win in anything like that, so you have to expect these things when they come.
“It sucks. The last time on this field, last time playing for this high school, this team, it sucks. It’s not how you want to go out, but it’s what it is.”
Adams conceded this one was the hardest of the three heartbreaks to take because this one was right there for the taking.
“To have it end like that is just something that’s tough to swallow,” Adams said.
The play that broke the Wolverines’ heart Friday was a double pass from Kristopher Foster to Davon Barr to Xavier Sabb.
The game seemed headed towards a wild Woodstown celebration after Jake Ware hit a 22-yard field goal to make it 10-8 and Damien Eichler sacked Foster inside the Glassboro 20 on fourth down with about four minutes to play. If the Wolverines could punch it in from there, they surely would have put it away.
“The whole crowd was going nuts,” Adams said. “I had double headsets and I could hear them through the headsets. It was insane how loud it was. And when Max ripped off that run on the bash that we called and we end up getting that first down, we were just saying ‘ball security’ and just keep running it and run the time down. Unfortunately, the ball security wasn’t there.”
Their fortunes turned on the next play. Webb went to fake a handoff to Bryce Belinfanti in a play that had worked so well for them all game but the ball got hung on Belinfanti’s hip on the takeaway and bounced free. Glassboro’s Damere Lassiter recovered it to give the Bulldogs life with 2:58 to go.
Foster moved his offense out towards midfield. On a second-and-15 from the 40, Bulldogs coach Timmy Breaker called for the double pass.
It was a play the Wolverines (9-3) had been working on in practice ever since Shore Regional and Woodbury caught them on it in the playoffs two years ago. This time Sabb got behind the corners who bit on the play and the freshman had open field in front of him when he pulled it in. Barr admitted he was nervous at first, but those butterflies went away as the play developed.
“Devon is the backup quarterback; we practice it all the time, all the time,” Breaker said. “We knew they were playing Xavier hard. A heluva call, one that’ll go down in the books. I’ve got to give big, big, big props to the kids. They executed it.”
Sabb also returned a punt in the third quarter 86 yards for a touchdown and Barr ran in the conversion to give Glassboro an 8-7 lead. The big return atoned for the punt he fumbled earlier in the quarter.
“I was talking to the ref and was like if I get this in my hands I’m going to get a touchdown because a messed up the first one,” Sabb said. “Once I got it in my hands I wasn’t going to let anybody touch me. I was in my feelings a little bit (after the fumble), but I had more worry about the game than myself.”
Neither team yielded much in the first half, but Woodstown came away with a 7-0 halftime lead after Webb’s 1-yard sneak in the second quarter. It was the first touchdown Glassboro had allowed in the playoffs and the first one they had allowed in 14 quarters.
The Wolverines preserved their early lead with four takeaways, including interceptions by Carter Orlandini and Webb inside the 3 in the first half, but they were the ones with the turnovers in the second half.
“I think it’s a learning curve; it’s getting used to playing at this level.,” Adams said. “We got to the championship two years ago and we knew this feeling we’re having tonight and we learned from it. Two years later we end up conquering that and win the championship.
“I told them now it’s the next step, being able to finish in a game like this. Gotta learn from it and gotta hope the younger guys, just like these seniors did, have that chip on their shoulder that they want to get to this stage and you hope you get a chance again.”

Woodstown notebook
On life in uncharted territory, playing a third straight regular-season rematch, the underlying secret to the Wolverines’ success, and more
By Al Muskewitz
Riverview Sports News
WOODSTOWN – Playing this deep into the high school football season is a whole new experience for the Woodstown football program. It’s an exciting time for the Wolverines, for sure, but instead of getting off track in uncharted territory they are approaching it as they have every game this year – business as usual.
The Wolverines won their first South Jersey Group I title in school history last week and host Glassboro Friday two wins away from a state championship. But if you watched them practice this week, you’d think they were getting ready for a game in early October.
“It’s like every other week, preparing the same,” quarterback Max Webb said. “Obviously it’s for a little higher stakes, but we’re not doing anything special. It’s just like every other week.”
That doesn’t mean they aren’t intense as they go about it.
“There’s definitely a different tone to the team in our work ethic and drive since the playoffs have started because we know it’s win or go home,” record-setting running back Bryce Belinfanti said. “What we’re doing right now is something that’s hard to be done again so we have to make it count.”
So what’s like being in uncharted territory?
“It’s awesome,” Wolverines coach John Adams said. “I said to the kids we’re not used to this, I think 2018 was the first time they started doing the regional championships, which is this round, and if we win this one you move onto the state championship, which has only been one year in the making so far.
“We can’t be satisfied with just getting over that hump last week. We’ve got to make sure we’re focused on Glassboro and not coming off a big-win hangover like what happened to us walking into Haddonfield (after beating Woodbury in the regular season).
“It’s fun. It’s special. The kids are going to remember being one of the only sports out here. You look around there’s no other teams playing right now. It’s pretty special.”
THE SECRET: The Wolverines may be riding the momentum of their first sectional championship, but they’ve been on this track for a long time.
Over the last four years they are 30-11 – 26-7 in the last three, with three playoff trips and two appearances in the sectional final. The secret to that success can be traced to the fact most of the players have been playing together since they were 6 and playing for the Woodstown Pirates youth program.
“It’s definitely part of it,” Webb said. “We’ve run something close to this offense since we were little, so growing up in it definitely helps with our comfort level of what we’re doing now.”
“It makes us have so much more chemistry than the other team,” receiver/defensive back Anthony Ford Dale said.
It was Ford Dale who techniqued Woodbury receiver Marquis Taylor out of the back of the end zone to deny his potential game-tying touchdown catch in the fourth quarter of last week’s sectional final game.
A good feeder program is the key to any sustained success, and that’s what they’ve got here. Adams went to one of their games over the weekend and thought he was on his own sideline.
“A lot of these guys grew up playing for the Woodstown Pirates and it just so happens that our Junior Woodstown Pirates, our Senior Woodstown Pirates and us all play Glassboro this week in the playoffs,” Adams said. “The majority of these guys went through that program, they grew up in that program.
“Some of our kids go and coach for them. You go over there and you hear all the terminology that we’re using, so when you hear the coaches yelling stuff out that’s the same term we use. It’s just neat to see.
“That group – Jack Knorr, Max Webb, James (Hill), Bryce (Belinfanti), Damien (Eichler) and all those guys – have always grown up winning down there at that level so we knew when they came to high school we had a group of kids who knew how to win.”
THREE’S COMPANY: If the Wolverines didn’t know better, they’d swear they were playing in the NFC East or within some other division in the NFL.
This week’s Group I state semifinal game against Glassboro is the third week in a row the Wolverines will be playing a regular-season rematch, something akin to playing the Giants, Dallas and Washington in home-and-home series like they do in the pros.
Woodbury won three rematches on its way to winning the first ever Group I state title – Penns Grove, Maple Shade and Salem – but not in consecutive weeks. Woodstown beat Diamond Division rivals Penns Grove and Woodbury each for the second time in the second and third rounds and will be looking to avenge a regular-season loss to Glassboro.
“It shows how tough our division in that we’re seeing these teams so deep in the playoffs,” Webb said. “It definitely helps because we know what they’ve got and we know what they’re going to show against us. It helps us prepare for it a little bi more
The prep to the rematches are easier, Belinfanti said, because you’re immediately familiar with the opponent’s tendencies and personnel, but the game itself will “definitely be harder, especially if you won the first one.”
“It’s a challenge, definitely,” Belinfanti said. “Our coach always says it’s hard to beat a team twice. We love the challenge. Three rematches in a row would be huge to win, for sure.”
END ZONE A DEAD ZONE: The Wolverines have outscored their opponents 118-40 during their current four-game winning streak, but they may find touchdowns hard to come by Friday night.
Glassboro has shut out all three of its opponents in the playoffs this year and hasn’t given up more than one touchdown in any of its last eight games, including a 13-7 overtime win over Woodstown. The last team to find the end zone against the Bulldogs was Buena in the third quarter of a 39-6 loss – that’s 13 quarters of 0s.
“They haven’t played an offense that’s the caliber of us yet,” Belinfanti said.
“We know what we’ve got and we’ll handle all that,” Webb said. “I’d put it on a lot of things that we can score on almost any team in the state.”
IN LIVING COLOR: The Wolverines’ color scheme for the state semifinals is blue on white.

Woodstown signings
UPDATED: 2 Wolverines sign to play at the next level, softball’s Mingin to East Stroudsburg, baseball’s Williams to Goldey-Beacom
By Al Muskewitz
Riverview Sports News
WOODSTOWN – When the Woodstown softball team gets things going, it’s usually Tulana Mingin who gets it started. Not in a Kyle Schwarber kind of way, but more like get ‘em on, get ‘em over, get ‘em in.
After next season she’ll be looking to do the same on the next level.
Mingin, the Wolverines’ standout shortstop, signed a national letter of intent to play her college softball at East Stroudsburg Wednesday.
“I always wanted to play college softball since I was little and signing that paper actually makes it official,” Mingin said. “Even when I committed, that’s official, but that’s a decision. Once you make it official that’s when the real hard work starts.”
She’s not averse to that and it shows by the results. As a sophomore she set the school record with a .597 batting average and 43 hits. She followed it up last season by hitting .471 with 40 hits and a .541 on-base percentage. She needs three hits for 100 in her career and has the school record for hits in her sights.
And it shows in the results. As a sophomore she set the school record with a .597 batting average and 43 hits. She followed it up last season by hitting .471 with 40 hits and a .541 on-base percentage. She needs three hits for 100 in her career.
This past offseason she led her championship-winning Tri-Cape Carpenter Cup team in virtually every offensive category.
A left-handed slap hitter who usually bats second in the Wolverines’ lineup, there’s a possibility she’ll hit leadoff this coming spring. It’s just a chance for her to get things going a little earlier.
“She’s just a very hard worker, dedicated, committed to her game of softball,” Wolverines coach Dave Wildermuth said. “She plays as much softball as she possibly can. She’s just a very committed player.”
“She gets hits, she gets on base, she’s super fast. If she puts the ball on the ground you’d better get it over to first base because she’s going to beat it out. She’s just a great all-around player.”
Mingin wasn’t the only Wolverines spring athlete to put pen to paper Wednesday. Baseball player Brent Williams signed to play at Division II Goldey-Beacom College.
A second baseman and pitcher, Williams hit .380 and led Wolverines in hits (30), and RBIs (26) last season. On the mound he sported a 4.40 ERA with 27 strikeouts in 28 2/3 innings. The Wolverines were 6-2 in games he pitched last year.
