Mount's golfers capture league crown

A little rain did not stop Mount St. Joseph's golfers from dominating the Athletic Association of Catholic Academies championship on Monday.

The Magic had the top three overall finishers in the league's championship match at Honeybrook Golf Club, led by Alise McNutt's 3-over-par 40. Teammates Samantha Arena and Nicole Mischler were just 1 stoke behind McNutt.

All three and seven others qualified for the District 1 championships on Oct. 12 at the Gilbertsville Country Club.

As a team, Mount St. Joseph finished with 216 strokes, well ahead of second-place Villa Joseph Marie (249).

Dalinka shot a 36 on each half and beat teammate Zach Herr by 2 strokes.

Nick DiGregorio picked a good time to score his first goal of the season.

DiGregorio found the range in the second half and lifted Holy Ghost Prep past host Father Judge, 1-0, in a nonleague game between two area heavyweights.

Kyle Klein assisted on the goal, which came from inside the box 10 yards out. Dan Burke earned the shutout with nine saves for the Firebirds (10-1) who came into the game ranked ninth in the Southeastern Pennsylvania Soccer Coaches poll. Judge (10-2) is ranked second.

Public. Markus Malave converted a 25-yard free kick into the tying goal and his second of the game as Franklin Towne Charter and host Washington battle to a 2-2 double-overtime deadlock.

Abrahim Fosana scored the last of his two goals in overtime and handed Bartram a 4-2 win over host Philadelphia Academy Charter.

Freshman midfielder Samantha Paules scored her first varsity career goal with 17 minutes left in the first half to give host Academy Park a 1-0 win over Harriton.
