Senior midfielder Chelsea Duffy displayed her offensive talents, totaling four points, and seventh-ranked Gloucester Catholic showed why it is the Tri-County Conference’s defending Diamond Division girls’ soccer champion yesterday by handing host Pennsville its first loss of the season, 5-0.
Duffy, who is headed to the University of Delaware, had two goals and a pair of assists against an Eagles squad that had outscored opponents by 12-0 in winning its first four matches.
Kelly Kane, Karen Thomas, and Abby Zweigle each had a goal for the Rams (3-0-1 overall, 3-0 conference).
In other Tri-County action:
Briana Molino converted a corner kick from Joanna Schneck for the go-ahead goal late in the first half and sixth-ranked Williamstown held on to edge host Cumberland, 2-1.
Shea Levi, with an assist by Jessica Martinez, opened the scoring for the Braves, who improved to 6-0 overall and 3-0 in the Royal Division.
Darian Patitucci set up Lauren Whelan for the lone goal by the Colts (2-2, 0-2), who elevated their play but couldn’t put the tying score past Williamstown keeper Ashley Winkelspecht (seven saves).

Trevor Sharpe’s natural hat trick, including two goals on penalty kicks, provided most of the offense for Cherry Hill West in a 5-0 Olympic Conference boys’ soccer win over visiting Pennsauken yesterday.
Sharpe’s goals staked West to a 3-0 advantage, and the Lions, who added goals by Rory Watkins and Charlie Wilmer, held off a late comeback bid by the Indians.
Also in the Olympic, Seneca goalie Sean Gray stopped all 10 shots he faced and earned a 1-0 triumph over visiting Bishop Eustace when Andrew Lux got loose for an unassisted goal 14 minutes into the second half.
