Middletown South defeated Mount St. Mary early in the week before suffering a difficult loss to Rumson-Fair Haven, falling 19-8, but the Eagles showed flashes of promise moving forward.

Hayley Jamison continues to stand out as one of the top players in the conference, totaling 40 goals and 15 assists. Ashley Penn has also been a key contributor, recording 29 goals this season. The senior duo of Abby Gallagher and Anna Stumberger adds both production and veteran leadership to the lineup.
Upcoming games: at No. 1 Trinity Hall, at Manalapan

The Warriors avoid falling in the rankings following a non-conference loss to Cherokee, which is ranked eighteenth in the state.
Manasquan continues to show both its youth and potential. While the team’s talent is evident, inconsistency has surfaced at times. Chloe Stevens, Sarah Sharpe, and Dylan Carnahan have led the offensive production, with Stevens totaling 34 goals, Sharpe adding 17, and Carnahan contributing 16, including several game-winners.
Upcoming games: No. 4 Southern, Donovan Catholic
7. Barnegat (10-2) Last Week: 7

The Bengals finished the week 2-1, earning wins over Red Bank Catholic and Freehold Township while falling to Shore. Barnegat remains in first place in the Colonial Division, but despite several competitive showings against American Division opponents this season, it has yet to secure a win against that group. A 10-4 victory over Point Boro coupled with the high volume of losses from Shore keeps the Bengals from dropping after the loss.
Junior Ella Tortorici continues to stand out as one of the conference’s top two-way players, making a significant impact on both ends of the field. She is supported by a strong core that includes junior Molly Carroll, senior Lizzie Medina, and junior Sadie Guiro. In goal, senior Allie Soden has been a consistent, reliable presence throughout the season.
Upcoming games: at Toms River East, No. 9 Holmdel, at No. 1 Trinity Hall
8. Point Boro (9-2) Last Week: 8

In goal, senior Sloane Schwertheim has provided a steady and reliable presence.
Upcoming games: Red Bank Catholic, at Brick Memorial, Toms River North

Holmdel continues to impress, improving to 9-3 following a 2-0 week that included handing Brick its first loss of the season and earning a win over Jackson.
Ryan Buchan is putting together an outstanding—and perhaps underappreciated—season that could warrant postseason recognition. The sophomore has totaled 39 goals and 29 assists. Junior Sunny Betz has also been a key contributor with 44 points (27 goals, 17 assists), while senior Avery Dubin has provided consistent scoring with 27 goals on the year. In net, freshman Josephine Betz has emerged as a standout, recording 125 saves and solidifying the Hornets’ defense.

Reese Achille is having a special season as she has scored 51 goals and also added 21 assists. Olivia Hoagland has been a good second option for the Dragons as she has scored 32 goals and added 11 assists. Junior goalie Isabella Davila has been a brick wall in net, no pun intended.
