PhillyVoice
New Jersey's high school ice hockey season has been heavily impacted by coronavirus restrictions implemented on winter sports by Gov. Phil Murphy. There may be good reason for that.

NFHS
Every now and then, an event occurs that serves as a wake-up call and reminds us that we have some work left to accomplish. We are aware of two such events recently that were rather disturbing, and the issues behind those events need our full attention.
