East’s Delaney Closing in on 200 Goals, Tennis Teams Fall in Playoffs

Also, East's boys volleyball team drops one on the road to a tough South Jersey foe.

With a couple more games like Thursday’s, Cailtin Delaney won’t need to worry about whether she’ll top the 200-goal mark for her high school career.

The Cherry Hill East girls lacrosse midfielder fired in 10 goals against West Deptford, upping her season total to 73 and her career mark to 181, with three regular-season games and the playoffs still to come.

The Cougars, who also got a four-goal game from Emily Johnson and a three-goal effort from Taylor Patrizi, took an 11-5 lead over the Eagles at halftime and cruised in with nine in the second half.
