Friday’s Finest: South Jersey County/Conference Tournament Finals

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There were eight different county and conference tournament championship games that took place on Friday in New Jersey with half of them happening in South Jersey. This article will talk about the best performances from those four games that crowned a number of different champs and winners in the region.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='601413' first='Jahzara' last='Green'] - Gloucester Catholic (2026)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Green made her mark on the Tri-County Conference Tournament on Friday as she and the Rams took home the Flight A title. Naturally, the sophomore forward was the star of the show in the win, finishing with a game-high 18 points, her fifth-straight game with at least 18 points overall. Over her last eight games, she's been on a tear, averaging 22.5 points per game overall, playing at an elite level for Gloucester Catholic.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Juliette Mirigliani - Clearview (2026)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's the sophomore from Clearview that really stood out amongst the rest for the Pioneers in the Flight A tournament final. Mirigliani has shown that she's going to be a big piece for this program moving forward and she showed out with a solid 13-point performance, knocking down a pair of threes in the process. Really impressed by her growth in a starting role as she's met the challenge put in front of her as a sophomore.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='831439' first='Kezia' last='Brackett'] - Glassboro (2027)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>If this is the first time you're hearing about [player_tooltip player_id='831439' first='Kezia' last='Brackett'], get her on your radar right now. The freshman had herself a crazy day for Glassboro in the Flight B final in the Tri-County Conference Tournament, knocking down four three-pointers as she finished with a cool 24 points, her eighth 20-point game already just as a freshman. She's making herself known from the jump with Glassboro.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='488661' first='Zahaisha' last='Nevius'] - Overbrook (2024)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rounding out the Tri-County Conference Tournament was the Flight C final and despite it being a battle of sub-10 win teams, Nevius showed out for Overbrook. Her senior season has quietly been a dominant one and such was the case on Friday, finishing with 21 points while knocking down a trio of threes. Multiple 30-point games, a plethora of 20-point games and numerous double-doubles, Nevius is carrying the Rams on her back as a senior.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='601276' first='Analyse' last='Intenzo'] - Moorestown (2026)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Moorestown is as much on the map as its ever been, and a big reason for that is the production of its sophomore stud, [player_tooltip player_id='601276' first='Analyse' last='Intenzo']. Once again, she put in work, though coming up short in the Burlington County Tournament final against Lenape, recording a 15-point, 15-rebound double-double for the Quakers. It was her fourth-straight game with a steal and her seventh game in her last 10 with at least one block.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">El Anita Joe Samuel - Lenape (2027)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We're truly running out of words to describe how good Lenape freshman El Anita Joe Samuel has been. Take Friday, a Burlington County Tournament win where she led the team in scoring with 13 points, taking charge as a freshman to lead a 20 win team, Lenape's first since the 2019-20 campaign. That season, future star Kaitlyn King was a freshman and now this season, the freshman star lies within Joe Samuel.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
