Boxscore
Richard Stockton (0-4) was unable to rally from a two-goal deficit in the first half and fell to Delaware Valley (6-1) 2-1 in the home opener for the Ospreys.  Christy Barbetto (Hammonton/St. Joseph) scored the lone goal for Stockton.  Debi O’Kane (Cologne/Absegami) received the start in goal and made two saves in the first half.  Christine Harvey (Edgewood, MD/Aberdeen) played goaltender in the second half and also registered two saves.
 
Stockton had a great chance to take the early lead on a penalty stroke by Jackie Turner (Medford/Shawnee) just 3:08 into the game, but her high shot was denied by the Delaware Valley goalie.  The Aggies then scored first-half goals at 7:15 and 27:29 for a 2-0 lead.  In the second half, Stockton pulled within 2-1 at 50:02 when Barbetto poked a loose ball into the cage.  Delaware Valley held strong on defense and kept the Ospreys off the scoreboard for the rest of the game for the 2-1 final.
