MFS relishing first state championship

Junior Elena Styliades outlasted her Newark Academy counterpart in an entertaining and tense, three-set match at third singles to put the Foxes over the top in the New Jersey Non-Public B state championship. Styliades and her fellow Moorestown Friends singles teammates, Renna Mohsen-Breen (first singles) and Bella Pescatore (second) won their matches to deliver the Foxes a 3–2 win over Newark Academy. The victory marked the first state championship in the history of the Moorestown Friends girls tennis program.

MHS students square off against their teachers in a battle of wits

When Moorestown High School students are pitted against their teachers in a battle of wits, who emerges victorious? Both sides had a chance to find out when MHS students and teachers faced off on the new trivia-based game show The ClassH-Room.

Six students and six teachers squared off in episodes that aired on Fox29 on Oct. 4 and Oct. 22. While the students won one round and the teachers won another, ultimately it was Moorestown High School that emerged victorious with the school receiving a $500 check on behalf of the winning team each go-around.
