The City that Never Sleeps

Yup, no one sleeps in New York City because apparently they use their pillows as weapons! Saturday was international pillow fight day. Video to follow...

Wrestling in the Stands

I had an amazing time in Atlantic City for the NJ high school state wrestling championships! Here's one of the stories I came away with...

Is the action more intense on the wrestling mats or in the stands? I show the ways two parents cope while their sons are in action on the floor. Plus we have our cameras on 3 Bergen Catholic wrestlers for state wrestling highlights!

Meet the Greeter!

The warmups are over. The P.A. announcer has microphone in hand... the starters are being introduced...who's that kid on the court high-fiving and chest-bumping each player?

Meet "The Greeter."

High school basketball wouldn't be the same without him and his signature greetings for every starters.

I meet the greeter for Palisades Park and put him to the test with my own handshake. Take a look at the video below.

Taylor Tallies 1,000

Taylor Wootton joined teammate Jacki Mann in the 1,000 point club during a road win at Fort Lee on Thursday night. Taylor came into the game just 7 points shy of the milestone. She collected the first four points on shots in the paint, then scored 998 and 999 on free throws. The Rutherford junior had a chance at a putback for 1,000 late in the first quarter but was fouled and took care of business at the charity stripe.

Taylor finished with 14 points--so its 1,007 and counting...

Check out the video below. Congrats Taylor!

My prediction this year is Don Bosco Prep. Who's your pick?

Boy, is she good!

Last Thursday, Julia Schneider made history at Dwight-Englewood, pouring in her 1,383rd point to set a new all-time school scoring record. The old record was held by Josh Williams who played on the great 2000 and 2001 Bulldogs teams. Yup, Julia Schneider took away the school scoring record from a boys team member. Anyone know how many schools' scoring records are held by a female baller?




Congratulations to Julia, who truly deserves the honor.

Athlete of the Week

Congratulations to Lawrence Jackson Junior, our latest local athlete to garner Athlete of the Week honors from The Record.

Junior bowled his first career perfect game last week against St Mary (sorry Junior, we got the school wrong on the show). He followed that performance by leading Leonia to a win against Weehawken. Thanks to Junior, Leonia has picked up right where it left off last year, and looks like a favorite to repeat as BCSL Olympic champions.

Here's a refresher on what Lawrence can do:
