• South, Central Jersey sectional final baseball roundup (thedailyjournal.com) — Haddon Heights High School’s baseball team just captured the South Jersey Group 2 sectional title with an 8–1 win over rival Haddonfield and now heads to face Governor Livingston in Monday’s state semifinal. Kevin Clark’s two RBI doubles and strong pitching from Cole Simon and Jake Dillon powered the Garnets, who are chasing the program’s first-ever state championship. 
• South Jersey's most prominent people of the past 250 years, Part VI (thedailyjournal.com) — This historical roundup of notable South Jersey figures includes a poignant look at Haddon Heights’ own sacrifice: investigator Jack McLaughlin and Officer John Norcross, killed while serving a warrant at a Sylvan Avenue home, and honored at Haddon Lake Park.
