Olympic Conference Season in Review, 2020-21

Player of the Year: This was Shawnee’s best season in its history. The Renegades finished it with a record of 12-1 and a sectional championship. A big reason behind that was the play of Mia Moscicki.

The junior could not be stopped and rolled to a career-high 143 kills. She capped her season with a 16-kill performance in the sectional final against Toms River South, giving her 30 kills in her final two games alone. Moscicki was also voted by the coaches as the conference Player of the Year. She averaged 5.3 kills per set.

Lenape’s Maya Knasiak delivers a pitch during the opening round game of the South Jersey Group 4 softball tournament between Lenape and Vineland, played at Lenape High School on Tuesday, June 1, 2021. Lenape defeated Vineland, 4-1. (Photo: Chris LaChall/Courier-Post)

MEDFORD – With a potent lineup that generated plenty of offensive fireworks, the Vineland High School softball team has the ability to put on a show.

Making her first postseason start, the sophomore right-hander fired a three-hitter with 12 strikeouts, guiding Lenape to its first postseason win in over a decade with a 4-1 triumph over Vineland on Tuesday.

Seventh-seeded Lenape (14-6), which had lost its previous four playoff games by a combined five runs, will travel to second-seeded Jackson Memorial for Friday’s quarterfinal game.

“Maya was outstanding,” Lenape head coach Eric Krastek said. “She’s been very consistent all season. She really hasn’t had a bad outing. We’ve lost six games and we’ve scored a total of two runs in those games. We’re never out of a game with Maya in the circle. She’s that dominant.”

Knasiak’s batterymate couldn’t agree more.

“Maya is just a lights-out pitcher,” said sophomore…
