The preseason is well un-derway for high school fallsports, but the summer heatis far from over. From fieldswithout shade to heavy padsand equipment, it is impor-tant to take care of your bodyand prevent injury.According to Dr. Mick

Koester, a pediatric sportsmedicine specialist and Chairof the NFHS Sports MedicineAdvisory Committee, exer-tional heat stroke is the lead-

ing cause of preventabledeath in high school athleticsand also results in thousandsof emergency room visits andhospitalizations through thenation each year. Now, exer-tional heat stroke is one ofthe more extreme conse-quences of physical activityin a hot environment, butmore common occurrencesare heat exhaustion and de-hydration.

While coaches do theirbest to beat the heat with ear-ly morning practices, it issometimes difficult to keeptrack of each player on theteam. Have no fear, though;there are symptoms to becautious of and techniques tohelp prevent heat stroke, heatexhaustion and dehydration.For starters, it is always

smart to hydrate before apractice. This does not meanchugging multiple bottles of

water or Gatorade becausethat would only lead to anuncomfortable stomach andpractice. As you work out orpractice your body sweatsout water weight so hydrat-ing before gives you some re-serves as the day wears on.Another suggestion from

the National Federation ofState High School Associa-tions [NFHS] is to start slowand increase intensity at amoderate pace. This is why

there are usually warm-upsand stretches before practice.It is good to start with a jog

and stretch as it graduallywarms up the body as opposeto jumping right into sprintsor arduous activities, whichlead to spikes in body tem-perature. Utilizing a goodwarm up gives the body timeto acclimate to the environ-ment.Even though utilizing the

aforementioned steps priorto a practice is helpful, heatexhaustion, stroke and dehy-dration can still settle in. Thismeans it is important to beaware of your own body’s re-actions and report to a coachor medical trainer if neces-sary.

Some symptoms to beweary of include a drymouth, dizziness, cramps,nausea and headaches.Should any of those symp-toms set in, it is important tofind shade and begin hydrat-ing.Water and sports drinks

like Gatorade are good waysto help your body out.Gatorade contains carbohy-drates and electrolytes, whichare helpful in replacing lossesand providing energy.For those athletes encum-

bered by equipment it is es-sential to remove pads andhelmets for the moment to letyour body breathe and re-lease heat trapped under theequipment. It is a good habitfor football players andgoalies to remove their hel-mets when not participatingin the practice.Remember it is also impor-

tant to let any coach or med-ical trainer know if you feelheat exhaustion or dehydra-tion and they will take thenecessary action to ensureyour health.After cooling down and re-

covering from exhaustion ordehydration it is tough to notwant to jump right back intoplay. As stated earlier, if thesymptoms have subsided andit is deemed that you can re-turn to practice, take it slowand continue to stay aware ofyour body. An injury relatedto these incidents could havelong-term effects that preventyou from participating in theseason.Coaches have been trained

to be alert and aware of theirteams’ exhaustion levels andincorporate water breaks andrests throughout practices tokeep everyone in check.As far as I have seen walk-

ing around practices, eachteam has their own watercooler to drink from through-out practice as well.If you are a parent, it is im-

portant to make sure yourchild has liquids with thembefore they jump on theirbike and ride to practice. Alsomake sure they rehydrate andfuel up with food after prac-tices to keep energy levels op-timal.The sun remains relentless

and winter is still a good fewmonths away. Take care ofyourself now so you do nothave to worry about it laterand, most importantly, re-member to have fun.

“The singles players needto become more consistent[with] keeping the ball inplay and really trying to justout hit one more ball than theother team,” she said.The Garnet Gull team lost

two valuable contributors in

Molly Laterza and ChloeJohnson who won the OceanCounty Tennis Tournamentin doubles play last year. Pel-lerito is confident the team isready to fill the holes though,saying, “This year we’re look-ing forward to coming out.We’re returning most of ourteam. I graduated the firstdoubles team that won theOCT last year so that’s a bighit but we have a lot of talent-ed players to take their posi-tions and right now they’reall vying for those startingseven spots.”The players on the team

have made good use of theoffseason by playing tenniswith each other, playing atthe Atlantic Club and otherclubs in Toms River. Theyhave been putting in the extraeffort necessary to be on topof their game and ready forthe first serve of the season.The team consists of seven

seniors, several sophomores

and no freshman. Five of the17 players are returningstarters and while the twocaptains have yet to be decid-ed, Pellerito has a good ideaof who they will be.“They both show great

leadership on the court as itis. They’re both good rolemodels for the students,” saidPellerito. “So I’m hopingthey’ll be able to guide theyounger kids.”Look for a strong season

from the team as they remaindeep in depth and have theleadership and disciplinenecessary to shape a compet-itive B Central squad.The girls’ season opens up

Thursday Sept. 10 on the roadagainst Long Branch.

team hope to start each sidewith a good first pass andwork from there.Last year the team worked

a 6-2 and Erinne Regan wasone of two setters. Accord-ing to Hanniffy, as it stands,the team will most likely uti-lize a 5-1 with Regan as theirsole setter. He said the teamwill also look to make use ofa libero, which is a defensivespecialist that plays backrow full time.Regan will look to utilize

her middle and outside hit-ters.“We have good experience

in the middle position,” saidHanniffy. “Madeline Whitewas third team all confer-ence as an outside hitter lastyear. She’s back for her sen-ior year. She’s a focal pointfor us.”White was The Ocean

Star’s volleyball athlete ofthe season last year for herstellar play on the court in-cluding two 10-kill gamesagainst Lakewood and Rari-tan and a game against RedBank Catholic where sherecorded 14 digs.She returns for her senior

the new girls into the sportas much as I was as a fresh-man. Coming in I met a sen-ior girl that completelytransformed the sport for meand I fell in love with it and

I want to do the same forthem,” said White in regardsto her goals for her last sea-son on the team.During the offseason

White has been working onher vertical to improve herhitting as well as her de-fense.“I’ve been at the gym four

times a week and I’ve beendoing a lot of jumping,” sheexplained.White boasts a strong

They made the statetournament where they fellto Glen Rock and the Gullsmissed the cut for the ShoreConference Tournament.“I’d like to have a winning

season of course and I’d liketo get a number on the ban-ner,” said White with asmile.Hanniffy will look to

White and the five otherseniors on the team to beleaders. For him composurewill play a big role duringthe season.“They have that level of

experience and maturity,”stated Hanniffy. “As far astheir relation to other teams,this is the fourth year in thisdivision so we’re getting toknow these other teams andwhat their strengths are. Sothat’s something they canlook for.”

sents the town, but more im-portantly it’s great what shedoes with all our youth soc-cer players and her work atMeridian Hospital,” MayorGeorge Dempsey said. Councilman Jeff Lee

echoed the mayor’s senti-ments. “Manasquan is quick to be

proud of so many things, buthere is an example of some-one on the world stage butcan pull our community to-gether,” Councilman Lee said.“I can’t imagine being thatsuccessful, but I think itspeaks volumes to the personshe is that she would taketime to celebrate with us.”

A COMMUNITY GIVES BACKFollowing the parade,

Rampone took the stage infront of the Main StreetBeach headquarters, whereshe was first presented with aproclamation and a key to theBorough of Manasquan. “Christie has inspired so

many young people and hasdemonstrated a positive rolefor young girls everywhere,”

A LOOK BACK

A crosstown football rivalry: The historyBY DOMINICK POLLIOTHE OCEAN STAR

POINT PLEASANT — Way backin the year 1964, it cost amere five cents for a first-class stamp, 30 cents for agallon of gas, 54 cents for onedozen eggs and 95 cents for agallon of milk. But if onewere interested in witnessingthe first football game be-tween crosstown rival highschools Point Pleasant Boroand Point Pleasant Beach,then 50 cents before gameday or $1 at the gate would se-cure you a spot in the stands.The Garnet Gulls were al-

ready an established varsityfootball program while thePoint Boro Panthers werestill a three-year school. Un-der Shore Conference rulesat the time, they were re-quired to play a full varsityschedule, so they made theshort trip over to Point Beachfor a Saturday morning foot-ball game.Point Beach wasted no

time taking care of the Pan-thers’ first-year varsity pro-gram. Behind strong GarnetGull defense and two scoresfrom fullback Jeff Patterson,Point Beach finished on top27-7 in the Halloween dayshowdown.The rivalry as a whole did

not stay in Point Beach’s fa-vor as the years went on.From 1964 to 1973, Point Borowon the young across-the-canal rivalry in dominantfashion. During the span of1965-1970, Point Beach didnot score one point againstthe Panthers.In 1968, Point Boro topped

an injury-ridden Point Beachteam 45-0 with two touch-downs apiece for Jack Vitaleand Paul Kenney. The Pan-thers went on to clinch theShore Conference C DivisionChampionship for the secondyear in a row with a 42-6 winover Keyport. It also markedthe second season in a row

the Panthers went undefeat-ed.The Point Boro Panthers

continued routing the GarnetGulls with a 30-0 win in 1969,a 56-0 win in 1970 and a 60-8win in 1971. They alsoclaimed victories in 1972 and1973.Although Point Beach did

not win in 1974, they did keepPoint Boro from claiming an-other victory. The rivalsclashed on the gridiron forwhat ended up being a 6-6 tieand the only tie of the rivalrythus far. The following yearPoint Beach finally found away to win as they toppedPoint Boro 28-6.Point Beach’s glory was

short-lived, though, as thecrosstown football rivalrywas put on hold for the next25 years.In 1976, the Point Boro

football squad joined a newlyformed Shore Conference BDivision, which did not in-clude the Garnet Gulls. Thisdid not mean the rivalry wasdead — it just meant it wasnot being played out on thefootball field.As had been going on in

the background during thepopular football rivalry, thePanthers and the GarnetGulls were clashing in othervarsity sports. They ranagainst each other in crosscountry and track, faced eachother on opposite sides of thenet on the tennis court, shotagainst each other on thepitch in soccer and competedagainst each other in variouswinter and spring sports.As the years continued,

teams got better and teamsgot worse. New teams and di-visions were popping up allacross the Shore Conferenceas well as the state of NewJersey. These factors led theBoro vs. Beach rivalry intosomewhat of a slumber asfewer sports featured thecrosstown battle.

Then rolled around 1999and, in an unlikely turn ofevents, the two football pro-grams found themselves faceto face in an NJSIAA consola-tion round game. Point Borotook the victory 19-6 after nothaving played the Gulls inover two decades.In the following season

[2000], both teams wereplaced in the same division ofthe Shore Conference, whichmeant they would face eachother at some point in theseason.Taking advantage of the

popularity the game couldsee, the schools decided toplay the game on Thanksgiv-

ing Day, adding a new holidaytradition like turkey, sweetpotatoes and pumpkin pie.In their first meeting, the

Point Boro Panthers domi-nated Point Beach 41-13 andmarked the start of a one-sided holiday tradition inwhich the winner became theowner of the Don McIntyreTeam Trophy. The Panthers went on to

win the next nine games be-fore the Thanksgiving tradi-tion came to close after the2009 season. Point Boro wonthat final game 41-13 andleads the football rivalry witha record of 20-2-1.

The two teams now play inseparate divisions, but the ri-valry lives on in those thatwere a part of the traditionand in the three sports thatstill feature the rivalry[wrestling, tennis and base-ball].This summer, a petition to

bring the Beach-Boro rivalryback to as many sports aspossible received over 3,500signatures from local resi-dents, highlighting the appealof such a competition. Creat-ed by Point Beach residentCraig Sulaitis, the petitionwas presented to bothschools’ boards of education

and to the attention of theathletic directors.According to Sulaitis, Point

Boro athletic director ChrisFerrone and Point Beach ath-letic director Ellen Magliarowill be keeping their eyesopen for available opportuni-ties to schedule more rivalrygames amongst the alreadyhectic schedules of the vari-ous varsity sports.

Party boats are havinggood trips to the bluefishgrounds catching lots ofsmall blues and mackerel foreveryone on board. Chumslicks are drawing the fish inand the small blues are thenbeing caught on bait andsmall jigs such as Ava-17’s.There have also been

some mahi moving into theslick that are being caughtalong with a few brownsharks. The big blues how-ever still remain absent fromthe scene and hopefully willreappear soon. Fluke fishing in the ocean

is decent as the sharpies aregetting their share of keep-ers as they know how tocatch the bigger fish andwhere to go. Most otherboaters are getting plenty ofshorts and one or two keep-ers. The Manasquan andShark rivers are also produc-ing plenty of shorts. Keepershowever are harder to comeby in the rivers when com-

pared to out in the ocean.Yellowfin tuna have

moved into the area of theBacardi to the Texas Towerand boaters trolling green orrainbow spreader bars ordaisy chains it tight havebeen connecting with thesefish. The yellowfin range insize from 40-6o pounds.Some boats report catchinga few while other boats have

reported catching 8-10. Onthe days the tight spreaddoesn’t produce well thetuna have been jumping onballyhoo fished way back onJoe Shute’s.The water in this area is

looking good as it is blue. Ifyou look at the satellite shota turbidity break occurs justeast of the Princess out tothe Chicken Canyon wherethere is blended green andblue water.
