ASBURY PARK — The Garnet
Gulls baseball team opened
up the spring season on the
road against Asbury Park on
Wednesday.
With the mercy rule in
play, Point Beach walked
away with a 17-3 victory in
five innings of play.
“It’s a good opening game,”
said Beach coach Angelo
Fiore. “You come out here
and you play a team like As-
bury and it’s rough because
you don’t know what you’re
going to get.”
According to Fiore, a cou-
ple of years ago the Gulls
faced Asbury Park and did
not fare as well as they
thought they would.
“A couple years ago we
played these guys and we
came out with a lazy attitude
and they threw up 10 runs on
us in the first inning,” Fiore
said. “The whole time we had
to play catch up and we
weren’t able to pull that one
out.”
The story was different
this time with Point Beach
going up early, batting in 8
runs in the first inning.
“We got off to a hot start,
batted around the first in-
ning,” said senior Mike
Frauenheim. “From there, we
just never looked back.”
On the mound for the
Gulls in the bottom of the
first was John VanSchoick, a
reliable pitcher.
“The pitching was solid.
John VanSchoick came out,
threw the first inning and he
was good,” said Fiore. “He is
about as dependable as you
can get.”
VanSchoick finished with
one strikeout and then the

ASBURY PARK — The presea-
son has been a rough one as
the weather dictated the time
Point Beach softball was able
to dedicate to on-field prac-
tice. Most of the time, the
Gulls found themselves prac-
ticing in a gym — nothing
close to real game action.
Despite these less-than-
ideal circumstances, Point
Beach opened up its season
with ease on Wednesday.
The Gulls traveled to face
Asbury Park High School,
where the Garnet Gulls bat-
ted their way to a 33-1 victory
in only four innings of play.
Alexa Russell opened the
first inning with a double to
center field. Teammate
Kellyann Ohlinger hit a
ground ball for another dou-
ble, and Russell booked it
home for the first score of the
game. The Gulls then batted
their way through the order
and put up six more runs

POINT PLEASANT BOROUGH —
The Point Pleasant Borough
varsity softball team has
been back on its grind and
is ready for the 2015 season.
The Panther squad com-
petes in the B South divi-
sion and is coming off of a 5-
15 overall 2014 season.
The team lost around six
seniors from last year, so
coach Steve Ferullo will be
relying a lot on the younger
players and the two return-
ing seniors, Amanda Caputo
and Alli Blisnuk.
“Basically, we didn’t have
a lot of wins last year. We’re
looking to improve on that,”
said Ferullo. “The kids have
been working hard so far. I
have a very, very young
team — I only have two sen-
iors on the team. A couple
freshmen start and a bunch
of sophomores. It’s just go-
ing to take the kids getting
used to playing on a varsity
level to work out for us.”
Caputo, along with Blis-
nuk, are prepared to shoul-
der the burden of being the
only seniors on the team
and hope their leadership
can have a lasting effect on
the younger girls.
“We did have more sen-
iors last year so there was
more leadership,” explained
Caputo. “We’re a younger
team so we have to kind of
lead them to be a stronger
team.”
Blisnuk agreed with her
teammate and also wants to
impress upon the rest of the
team that the key is to have
fun, saying, “It’s not worth it
if you’re not having fun. You
have to make the most out
of it. There are days where
you don’t want to be here —
you just have to push
through it. There will be
days where it’s worth it.”
Blisnuk was referring in
particular to a game last
season where the Panthers
found themselves down 9-2
in the seventh inning.
Through the rain and the
odds the team pulled out
the win, a testament to what
hard work can translate to
during the season.
Junior catcher Melissa Al-
fonso, who has been on the
varsity team since freshman
year, notices the positive
change of the past few sea-
sons. She remains hopeful

Panthers start season

Point Boro returns the same infield as last season, a plus for their defense. According to the play-

POINT PLEASANT BOROUGH GIRLS LACROSSE NOTEBOOK
Panthers fall to Manasquan in season opening game
BY DOMINICK POLLIO
THE OCEAN STAR
MANASQUAN — The Point
Boro girls lacrosse team
opened up their season on
the road Monday against the
Manasquan Warriors, where
they lost by a score of 15-1.
After the Panthers’ first
two games were canceled
due to weather, it was a tough
opening to their season, but
the girls never let up and put
forth a strong effort until the
final whistle.
“I’m just really proud of my
girls for never giving up,” said
Boro head coach Megan Fritz.
“They kept going no matter
the score — no matter what
was happening, they just nev-
er gave up.”
Fritz was also happy the
team tried to incorporate all
they have been working on in
practice, saying, “They were
willing to try new things.
Working on things that we’ve
been working on in practice.
That’s always a plus that
they’re putting in that effort.
“I saw good things from
each and every one of them.
I’m just really proud of them
for that,” she added.
The first half was sluggish
for the Panthers as Man-
asquan found the back of the
net 11 times. Point Boro had a
difficult time keeping up with
the Warrior offense and often
found themselves a step be-
hind a pass or cut.
“We have a completely
new defense really so we’re
just getting comfortable with
each other,” explained Fritz.
“We talked a lot about it at
halftime just how they should
be moving with their girl and
how they should be cutting
with her. I think taking that
and using it in the second
half really helped a lot.”
The Panther defense
stepped up in the second half,
adding pressure and moving
more aggressively on the
field.
Manasquan managed an-
other three goals before the
Panther offense had their mo-
ment.
Nicole Favato of Point
Boro took the ball through
the defense and laid it in past
the Warrior goalie to keep
their season opener from be-
ing a shut out.
Favato, an unselfish player,
saw the goal as a statement
for the team, saying, “It was
awesome, it showed us we
can do it.”
With “we” being the opera-
tive word, Fritz and the team
were proud of the lone goal.
“No one wants to walk
away from a game not having
scored at all,” said Fritz. “It’s
really nice when we can get
on the board like that. Nicole
is one of our strongest shoot-
ers so I was really happy that
she could get one in today.”
The Panthers did have oth-
er opportunities to score
throughout the game but
some shots just did not have
enough power behind them,
making easy saves for the
Warrior goalie.
“I keep telling them to be
confident in their shots and
just go from the core and re-
ally put power behind it,” ex-
plained Fritz. “Against a varsi-
ty goalie that’s the only way
you’re going to get it in the
net. What works on JV isn’t
going to work on varsity, so
we have to up the ante a bit.”
Manasquan found the net
one last time before the final
whistle, claiming the victory
15-1.
Despite the loss, the Pan-
thers remain upbeat about
their team and walk away
with things to improve. Fava-
to and Fritz both agree that
communication is a big as-
pect of the game they need to
work on.
“Our team will just play
better if we’re all talking,
knowing who is open, and
when to pass and when to
not,” stated Favato.
Fritz also noticed some
things to work on for the of-
fense and the defense, saying,
“On offense we’re continuing
to work on movement and
how we should be cutting
and how we should be clear-
ing the field and putting our-
selves in positions where we
can go in and score. On de-
fense — just really working
on that man-to-man and how
you cut with your girl and
how you defend that eight-
meter and also defend your
girl at the same time. Some-
times we pick one or the oth-
er and we need to realize we
need to do both.”
The Panther girls have
plenty of time to improve
their game and are anxious to
continue getting better as the
season moves on.
Point Boro went on to face
Jackson Liberty on the road
Wednesday.
The Panthers lost a close
game 8-7.
Jackson Liberty scored five
goals in the first half while
Point Boro only managed
three.
With the game close, the
Panthers won the second half
netting four goals. Unfortu-
nately Jackson Liberty scored
another three, just enough to
claim the one-goal victory.
The Panthers played yes-
terday against St. Rose in a
game occurring too late for
this week’s edition of The
Ocean Star. Be sure to read
next week’s edition for full
coverage.
Point Boro’s next game will
be at home against Shore Re-
gional on Tuesday April 7.
The game is scheduled to
start at 10 a.m.

Nicole Favato netted
a goal for Point Boro
in Monday’s loss
According to Boro coach Megan Fritz, communication is an aspect of their game that needs to improve
for the team to see success as the season moves on.
While the Panthers struggled in the first half against Manasquan on
Monday, they came out strong in the second half and eventually
scored a goal.
POINT BOROUGH BOYS LACROSSE NOTEBOOK
Defense leads to offense in home opener
BY DOMINICK POLLIO
THE OCEAN STAR
POINT PLEASANT BOROUGH —
The Panthers played their
first home game on Saturday
morning at Stadium Field.
The boys lacrosse team faced
off against the Shore Region-
al Blue Devils, who walked
away with a 14-5 victory.
The Blue Devils came out
fast and aggressive to start
the first quarter. They netted
three quick goals within the
first three minutes. Two
goals came from Shore’s Jack
Britton and the opening goal
came off the stick of Chris
Johnsen.
Point Boro’s head coach
Guy Lassen called a timeout
following the third goal to
have a word with his team.
“The thing is in the begin-
ning of the game they feel the
stress, they feel the pressure
and the game is moving fast,”
said Lassen. “When the pres-
sure is off they start playing.
They have to understand, to
win the game, they have to
play a full game.”
For the following eight and
one-half minutes, the Pan-
thers stood strong on defense
before the Blue Devils man-
aged three more goals in the
final minute of the first quar-
ter.
In the second quarter Point
Boro was struggling with
picking up ground balls, giv-
ing away possession to the
Blue Devils on more than one
occasion.
Lassen stressed the need
for the players to be aggres-
sive, saying, “You got to be
hungry to get a ground ball.
You can’t think — you just go
for the ground ball.”
Shore Regional ran up the
score with another six goals
before the end of the first
half. The 12th goal came with
Point Boro down a player af-
ter being called for a slashing
penalty.
Shore’s faster and more
physical play was taking its
toll on the Panthers, who
were already struggling with
missed passes and ground
balls. During the 10-minute
half, the young Point Boro
team spent eight minutes
huddled up listening to ad-
vice from Lassen and his as-
sistant coach.
“At halftime we said it’s not
about winning the game, now
we need to set small goals,”
explained Lassen after the
game. “The goal should be to
win a faceoff. The goal
should be to get nice passes.
The goal should be to score a
goal. The goal should be to
win the quarter, then win the
half.”
With the pressure of win-
ning off and their goals set,
the Panthers came alive in
the second half.
The Blue Devils opened up
the third quarter with one
more goal, increasing their
lead to 13-0. With 4:07 left in
the quarter, Point Boro’s Vin-
cent Ceres hit his second goal
of the season and the team’s
first goal of the game.
Ceres, a senior, keeps a
positive attitude no matter
what and always works to
play his best despite the
score.
“The main thing we can do
is stay positive and keep
everyone’s spirits high no
matter if we’re going up
against a really good team or
a really bad team,” stated
Ceres. “We just have to go
out there and play hard.”
Shore Regional responded
40 seconds later with a goal
from James Bedell, making
the score 14-1.
The goal was the Blue Dev-
ils’ last of the game as the rest
of the half belonged to the
Panthers.
The team had made the
necessary defensive adjust-
ments and came out strong
According to Point Beach
head coach Angelo Fiore,
the team was hard pressed
to find time to practice this
preseason.
Between snow and rain
they found themselves
practicing inside more than
outside.
Much to Fiore’s delight,
the team worked their way
to a 33-1 win over Asbury
Park in their season opener
on the road.
When one sees a score
like that, it’s easy to say the
offense did a lot of the
work, but what it really
came down to was the
pitcher on the mound.
Freshman Kylee Kells ac-
counted for 11 of the 12 outs
in the game against Asbury.
Not only did she have the 11
outs, they were all strike-
outs.
The only out that did not
come from a strikeout came
on a fly ball to right field.
Kells pitches fast, strong
and accurate.
Judging from the reac-
tions of the Asbury Park
players, they were not ready
to face such a consistent
pitcher.
Fiore was more than im-
pressed with his freshman
talent, saying, “A good thing
is how my freshman pitcher
pitched — Kylee Kells did a
nice job, and then we all just
settled down.”
Kells was not perfect,
walking two batters in the
first inning and giving up a
single and one run before
striking out the last batter.
But Fiore attributed that to
preseason jitters.
In the second inning she
struck out the first three
batters and did the same to
end the game in the fourth
inning.
Fiore is excited that he
will have Kells on the team
for the coming years.
She will continue to get
better and become a strong
weapon for the Garnet
Gulls.

and cohesive in the final 15
minutes of the game.
Junior goalie Ryan Bedle
explained the defensive ad-
justments, saying, “They [the
defense] just needed to slide
a little better and they let a
couple people shoot on the
crease. We quickly fixed that
and won the second half.”
The defense was alive and
the offense was seeing more
and more opportunities to at-
tack as the third quarter
came to close. With a Shore
Regional player on the side-
line for an illegal body check
to the head, Panther Kyler
Rossi found the back of the
net for the team’s second
goal.
“The defense has to work,”
said Lassen. “I told them it’s
not about the offense — it’s
defense first. If we can stop
them from scoring then we
have more opportunities on
offense.”
This showed even more in
the final quarter as Point
Boro added three more to
their total from three differ-
ent players. Getting in on the
action were Darian Healy,
Matt Youmans and Tom Pick-
ering.
Although the Blue Devils
took the 14-5 victory, the Pan-
ther players walked with
their heads up and spirits
high realizing the potential
with which they can com-
pete.
“I think the second half we
did a great job, we just need
to figure out how we can
compete early on and it’s all
about confidence,” said
Lassen. “If they get confi-
dence we can make some
noise here in the Shore Con-
ference.”
Ceres, who has been work-
ing hard in the offseason, is
happy about their perform-
ance and emphasizes keeping
one’s head in the game, say-
ing, “You have to keep your
head in the game. That’s the
biggest thing that any coach
or player will stress to you.
You got to keep your head in
the game no matter what the
score is and you have to try
hard until the last whistle.”
Ceres say he wants to keep
that mindset throughout the
rest of the season and hopes
his team follows suit.
Bedle recognizes the strug-
gle of being a first-year varsi-
ty team and believes it all
comes down to practice and
preparation.
“The first varsity season
for the school — it’s going to
be the hardest one. It’s only
going to get easier as long as
you practice during the off-
season and at after-school
practice, it will only get easi-
er,” he said.
Lassen and his team keep
looking ahead with improve-
ment being their number-one
priority.
“We have 16 more games
left,” said Lassen. “I expect us
to get better each and every
day and that’s all I ask of
them.”

THE OCEAN STAR
MANCHESTER — Point Boro
baseball played their season
opener on the road against
Manchester Township on
Wednesday. The Panthers
lost 7-4 after starting offen-
sively strong.
With one out in the top of
the first inning, Will Feehan
of Point Boro hit a home run
to right field to give the Pan-
thers a run to start the game.
They did not score anymore
in the inning with the last out
coming off a fly ball to center
off the bat of Jack Fitzsim-
mons.
Manchester then had their
turn on offense and batted in
two runs off of a triple and a
single.
On the mound for Point
Boro was Frank Graziano
who began the inning with a
strikeout and closed the in-
ning with a strikeout.
In the second inning the
Panthers left a player strand-
ed on base, not adding any
more runs to their total.
Meanwhile, in the bottom
of the second, Manchester
added two more runs to their
total with a two-run home
run. Graziano struck out two
batters in the inning and the
Panthers went back to work
on offense.
With Manchester up 4-1,
Point Boro scored a run off of
an error by Manchester’s
short stop. In the bottom of
the third the Panthers’ de-
fense held true and kept
Manchester scoreless.
The next two innings did
not go as planned for Boro as
they allowed a run in each. A
pitching change came in the
fourth inning and Michael
Falconetti took the mound
for Point Boro.
Unfortunately, Manchester
kept producing hits on of-
fense and by the beginning of
the sixth inning the Panthers
were down 6-2.
With the bases loaded and
only one out, Feehan hit a
sacrifice fly, which was good
enough for another run.
Sebation Severio then hit a
single to center field on a
hard grounder, knocking in
one more run for Point Boro.
Manchester’s pitcher then
struck out the next batter,
closing the inning with Point
Boro down 6-4.
Manchester added one run
to their total before the Pan-
thers had one last chance to
take a lead in the seventh and
final inning. Fitzsimmons
started the inning with an out
on a popup to third. Falconet-
ti then went down swinging.
With a man on first and
second, Sean Connor hit a
line drive to right field and
Manchester managed to snag
Quin Hornish, who was try-
ing to advance past second
on the play. It was the final
out and the Panthers took the
loss 7-4.
Graziano and Falconetti
both recorded five strikeouts
in the game. Feehan finished
with the homer and two
RBIs.
The baseball team then
went on to face Barnegat at
home yesterday. The game
occurred too late for this is-
sue of The Ocean Star. For
full coverage, be sure to
check out next week’s issue.
The Panthers’ next game
will be tomorrow at home
against Neptune. The game is
scheduled to begin at 10.am.

for this year.
“I think over the years
we’ve got a lot more chem-
istry together,” said Alfonso.
“When I started the seniors
were a little detached, so over
the years we’ve gotten better
and we really bonded.”
The three girls agreed that
this season has potential to
be better than last year and
the preseason has started
them off on the right path.
“It’s completely different
this year. I think we have a lot
of potential for this season,”
said Caputo. “Everyone is still
learning everything.”
“Preseason looks a lot bet-
ter. There are a lot of younger
kids who can learn to step up
and make the plays,” added
Blisnuk. “I think having a
younger team will benefit us
in the future. I think we will
have a better season this
year.”
Alfonso, a catcher by trade,
feels that defense is the key to
success for this year, saying,
“This year I really hope to ob-
viously see more wins, im-
prove the program, and step
up our offense because typi-
cally it’s not our strongest
point. And then remain sound
on defense because we need
to make sure our defense is
right where we need it to be
so that we can come back on
offense and come back if we
need to and get the spark go-
ing.”
According to Ferullo, they
have the whole infield back,
which should benefit them
greatly. He has some brand
new people in the outfield but
the team has been working to
be in form for the year.
“We’re still working on dif-
ferent situations,” explained
Ferullo. “Softball is a game of
situations and the more situa-
tions they see hopefully the
better they’re going to get. We
just got to get the ball over the
plate and keep us in the
game.”
The players directed a lot
of attention to their game
during the offseason.
Caputo, a pitcher, goes to
training once a week and
played on a travel team over
the summer.
Blisnuk, who plays third
base, is coming off of her sec-
ond anterior cruciate liga-
ment [ACL] surgery from an
injury she suffered during
soccer.
“Personally for me I just
had my second ACL surgery
in August,” explained Blisnuk.
“I was actually cleared two
weeks ago. I’ve been in physi-
cal therapy and doing stuff to
get myself back into shape. So
I still have to work on that.
Certain things are tough for
me, so I’ve been doing what I
can, but it’s been hard.”
While she said it has been
hard, Caputo said one can
never tell if Blisnuk is having
a bad day because she still
plays hard and makes her
plays.
Alfonso also put in offsea-
son work to improve the tech-
nical skills of her position.
“I started private lessons
this season for hitting. I also
took catching lessons to re-
fine my skills for blocking and
throw downs and every-
thing,” said Alfonso.
She also played with a trav-
el team and participated in
basketball, which is good for
conditioning and staying in
shape.
According to Ferullo, the
Panthers will compete against
tough teams like Pinelands,
Central Regional, Manchester
Township and Jackson Liber-
ty.
The outlook is hopeful and
through practice and dili-
gence, the team should see
positive results this spring
season.
“I hope that we can really
step it up,” stated Alfonso
with conviction. “I think that
if we really work on refining
our skills and getting our
skills better — that in game
time situations it will show
through and we’ll know what
to do and when, and hopeful-
ly that will result in more
wins.”
BORO VS MANCHESTER TOWNSHIP
The Panther softball team
opened up their season on the
road Wednesday. They took
on Manchester Township,
where they lost by a score of
10-0.
The Panthers committed
six errors early in the game,
which put them in a hole.
Alfonso had the only two
hits of the game for Point
Boro.
The Manchester offense
was swinging strong, includ-
ing a two-run home run in the
fourth inning.
The Panthers could not
muster a comeback in the B
South matchup.
Point Boro then took on
Barnegat at home on Thurs-
day. The game occurred too
late for this edition of The
Ocean Star. Check back next
week for full coverage.
The Panthers’ next game
will be on the road against
Central Regional on Tuesday
April 7. The game is sched-
uled to begin at 10 a.m.

Gulls were back to work
on offense in the top of the
second.
They added four more
runs to their totals before
Asbury Park managed the
third out. Fiore really want-
ed to give pitcher Kevin
Donnelly some time on the
mound since the preseason
was rough for the Gulls due
to inclement weather. So
Donnelly took the mound
for the second, third and
fourth innings.
“We were trying to get
Kevin Donnelly some work
today. With the weather this
preseason, it’s been kind of
rough,” explained Fiore.
“We had three scrimmages
cancelled so with that and
the fact we didn’t get a lot of
pitchers to work he’s strug-
gling to find the strike zone.
We need to get him right for
us to get good down the
stretch.”
Donnelly found his form
striking out seven batters in
his three innings on the
mound. Only one run was
allowed in, which came in
the bottom of the fourth.
“We had great pitching
from John and Kevin, and
we’re hitting the ball real
well,” said Frauenheim. “I’m
seeing the ball a lot better
this year. I’m just looking for
my right pitch and being pa-
tient up there.”
Frauenheim finished the
game with two hits, a single
and a double, and two RBIs.
At the start of the fifth in-
ning the Gulls were up 14-1.
Asbury needed to hold them
there and get within 10 runs
if they were going to keep
the game going past five in-
nings.
The Gulls kept swinging
and batted in three more
runs before Asbury closed
out the inning.
On the mound to close
out the game for the Garnett
Gulls was Chris Russo. He
found himself in trouble af-
ter walking a couple batters
and giving up a hit that led
to two runs for Asbury. But
Russo settled down, struck
out a batter, and let the de-
fense secure the other two
outs.
Since Asbury could not
get within 10 runs of Point
Beach, the game was called
after five innings with the
score 17-3 as Point Beach
claimed its first win of the
season.
“This one right here we
came out and the guys did a
great job of staying focused
and locked in all the way
through,” Fiore said about
the win. “They kept the in-
tensity up and we were able
to get some of the younger
guys in. A lot of the fresh-
man kids were able to come
off the bench and do some
good things, as well. I saw a
lot of good stuff.”
Frauenheim, who did not
see a lot of action out in left
field during the win, was
proud of how the offense
played and how the pitchers
threw the baseball. He be-
lieves the team will have a
lot of success going forward,
saying, “If we keep hitting
the way we’re hitting, now I
feel like we can beat any-
body. We just need our
pitching to be the same and
make no mistakes on de-
fense.”
Point Beach then faced
Keyport at home on yester-
day. The game occurred too
late for this edition of The
Ocean Star. For full cover-
age, pick up next week’s is-
sue.

before Asbury Park managed
the third out.
Freshman Kylee Kells took
the mound for Point Beach
and performed like she was a
seasoned veteran. She struck
out the first batter on five
pitches and then struck out
the second batter on three
pitches. Kells hit some trou-
ble walking the next two bat-
ters and giving up a single
that resulted in a run for As-
bury. She quickly got back on
track and retired the next bat-
ter in three pitches.
Up 7-1 the Gulls got back to
work on offense in the top of
the second inning. It looked
to be a quick one as second
baseman Sam Kelly grounded
out followed by Alex Barnes
lining out to third.
Point Beach put it behind
them loading the bases with
the next three batters. Erinne
Regan then hit a fly ball that
dropped in center field bring-
ing home two more runs for
the Gulls. They then batted in
three more runs off of a sin-
gle and a double before hit-
ting a fly ball for the third
out.
Kells went back to the
mound for the bottom of the
second inning. She struck out
the three batters she faced,
only throwing three balls in
the process.
In the third inning the girls
added nine more runs to
their total for a score of 21-1.
Kells came out again for the
Gulls, retiring the first batter
on a fly ball to center, then
striking out the next two on
eight pitches.
The best inning for Point
Beach was the fourth and fi-
nal inning where they batted
through the order almost
twice, putting up 12 more
runs. The only outs came off
of base runners leaving their
base too early.
With the score at 33-1 in fa-
vor of Point Beach the mercy
rule was in effect and Kells
and the Garnet Gull defense
had to get three outs and the
game would be over. In a per-
fect inning, the freshman
threw nine pitches for nine
strikes and the final three
outs of the game.
Head coach Silvio De-
Cristifano was more than im-
pressed with his pitcher’s
performance.
“A good thing is how my
freshman pitcher pitched,”
said DeCristofano after the
game. “Kylee Kells did a nice
job and then we all just set-
tled down.”
As the score indicates, the
Gulls’ offense was on point
and they really stayed consis-
tent with their hitting
throughout the game.
“Our strengths — definite-
ly our bats,” said Russell.
“Definitely I think we play-
when we all work together
we play hard together. I think
that’s a huge strong point.”
The win was a great way to
open the season but there are
still small things that De-
Cristofano hopes to improve
on as the season continues.
“We’re still rusty,” he said.
“Plays that are automatics
were a little rusty today.”
Last season Point Beach
finished with an overall
record of 9-9 and are really
looking to improve that
record this year.
They compete in the B
Central division with tough
opponents like Mater Dei, St.
Rose, and Henry Hudson.
“Last year we had a lot of
injuries. It was an up and
down year but we did finish
strong, I thought,” explained
DeCristofano. “And now
we’re pretty settled. We have
four seniors, we have a lot of
juniors and this freshman
pitcher who throws really
nice.”
During the offseason the
players have been working on
their game, always looking
for ways to improve.
“Some girls play year
round. A lot of girls are hit-
ting all year long. I think this
is the most ready we’ve been
for a start to the season,” said
DeCristofano. “Even though
we didn’t have the preseason
we liked, the girls are ready
to play.
“I think we’re starting to fi-
nally fill in those positions
that some people haven’t re-
ally played or practiced this
past year,” explained Russell.
“We’re working to just get
ready for the season. We’re a
little rusty with our bats but
we’re doing pretty well with
that.”
Russell has been hitting
year round and working on
her arm strength to make
harder and faster throws
from her short stop position.
Russell says a goal she has
for the team this season is to
beat Mater Dei in both games
they play with them this year.
She also feels the area that
needs the most improvement
for the team is communica-
tion, saying, “We could work
on communication — talking
and position wise. Who has
the ball and who covers
where. If we talk, we have it
all together.”
The softball team has a
positive outlook for this
spring season and definitely
started off strong with the
impressive win over Asbury
Park.
The Garnet Gulls went on
to face Keyport at home on
Thursday. The game oc-
curred too late for this edi-

Opening day of trout sea-
son begins this Saturday at 8
a.m. for all New Jersey waters
across the state.
For trout season this year
the Division of Fish and
Wildlife is stocking some
570,000 rainbow trout across
the state throughout the
spring, with 200,000 in the
water and ready to be hooked
on opening day. “Trout fish-
ing in New Jersey is as strong
as ever,” said Richard
Boornazian, Department of
Environment Protection
[DEP] Assistant
Commissioner for Natural
and Historic Resources. “Our
lakes and streams are being
stocked with lots of healthy
rainbows, ready to be hooked
and help make fond memo-
ries.” “Opening day of trout
season is one of the most
anticipated days on the cal-
endar for outdoors lovers,
connecting families and
friends in the enjoyment of
our state’s natural resources
and splendid scenery,” added
Division of Fish and Wildlife
Director David Chanda.
This year all designated
trout waters are being
stocked exclusively with
rainbow trout. The Pequest
Hatchery is shifting to more
intensive production of rain-
bow trout, which is resistant
to furunculosis, a disease
common in cold water fish
species that impacted brown
and brook trout reared at the
Warren County hatchery.
This issue limited stocking in
some of New Jersey’s trout
waters last year.
Daily bag limits for rain-
bow trout are April 4 to May
31, six trout measuring at
least nine inches and from
June 1 to December 31, four
trout measuring at least nine
inches. To fish for trout a
valid annual New Jersey fish-
ing license and trout stamp
are both required for resi-
dents at least 16 years old and
less than 70 years of age, plus
all non-residents 16 years and
older. Fees are Resident fish-
ing license ages 16 to 64 years
$22.50, Sr. Resident Fishing
ages 65 to 69 years $12.50,
Resident Trout Stamp $10.50,
Non-Resident Fishing ages 16
and up $34.00, Non-Resident
Trout Stamp $20. During the
season the Manasquan,
Metedeconk, and Toms
rivers will be stocked on
Mondays April 6, 13, 20, 27,
May 4, 11, and 18. Fishing will
be closed from 5 a.m. until 5
p.m. on these in season
stocking dates. Spring Lake
will be stocked three times
during the season by the
state but not closed to fish-
ing. Mac’s Pond will also be
stocked but just for opening
day. The trout stocking hot-
line is 609-633-6765.
On Saturday you can also
look forward to the Shark
River Surf Anglers Kid’s
Trout Contest starting at 8
a.m. at Spring Lake. This is
the largest kid’s trout fishing
contest anywhere in the
state. It is open to anyone 15
years old and younger. Greg
Hueth, the SRSA President
and Trout Committee
Chairman said, “This year’s
contest is scheduled for
opening day from 8 a.m. to
1:30 p.m. and it is offered free
of charge to all children ages
15 and under. Great prizes
will be a huge part of the day,
as we award a sensational
Grand Prize to an overall
winner, and first, second and
third place prizes to individ-
ual winners in each of four
different age categories. We
are especially pleased that
each and every contestant
will go home a winner, as we
present all participants with
a “thank you” prize package
that typically contains $40
worth of goods and gear.
On Saturday, we will have
several large tents on the
north side of the lake to serve
as contest headquarters. Our
club members will be gath-
ered there to answer any
questions, provide fishing
guidance and instruction,
and supply bait and tackle to
anyone that needs it. And
that’s not all. Certainly a
great day of outdoor family
fun isn’t complete without
food, right? Thanks to gra-
cious donations by our spon-
sors, we are able to offer free
hot chocolate, donuts, bagels,
hot dogs, chips, juice, ice
cream and soda to partici-
pants throughout the day.
We hope you will consider
supporting us as we promote
this entertaining and healthy
family oriented outdoor
activity. With your continued
support we expect another
fun day of fishing, food, and
family. For donations checks
can be made payable to
“SRSA Children’s Trout
Tournament” and mailed to
Gregory Hueth, 2167 Gregory
Place, Sea Girt, NJ 08750.
Your contributions are
greatly appreciated. Thank
you in advance and we look
forward to seeing you with
your family and friends down
at the lake on Saturday, best
regards, Greg Hueth”. Jeff

have yet to see the first win-
ter flounder. Most years we
see flounder by now and
years past when the season

caught double digits. This
might be the week with the
warmer forecast. I have had
no reports of stripers yet but
we are waiting for any sign of
life. We will have a complete
supply of live bait for trout
coming this week and trout

THE OCEAN STAR
POINT PLEASANT BEACH —
Clemson University girls
track has run back to its spot
atop the Atlantic Coast Con-
ference [ACC]. In February
the team won the ACC In-
door Championship at Vir-
ginia Tech.
This is their fifth title in six
years and sixth overall. Clem-
son placed first ahead of
Florida State in second and
Notre Dame in third.
More recently, Point Beach
graduate Brianna Feerst
placed third in the seeded
mile at the Shamrock Invita-
tional in Myrtle Beach at
Coastal Carolina University.
She finished with a time of
4:59.85.
She also ran the 4x800 me-
ter relay and clocked in with
a time of 2:15.
At the Crimson Tide Invi-
tational, Feerst ran in the
1500, where she finished with
a time of 4:36.34 — good
enough for sixth place.
All three of her times were
personal bests for the junior.
“In high school I ran five
flat,” said Feerst about break-
ing the five-minute mark in
the mile. “It was really awe-
some because it made me
feel good individually and
helped the team.”
Feerst was also proud the
Tiger team took the ACC In-
door championship after not
winning it last year, saying,
“This year coming back with
the win felt awesome. Last
year was kind of disappoint-
ing since we had been doing
so well previous years so it
was good to come back and
compete and win.”
According to Feerst, she
has been training really hard,
training as a team, and taking
care of her body. All of this
hard work attributed to her
being able to produce per-
sonal bests and she has no
plans to stop improving.
Feerst graduated from
Point Pleasant Beach High
School in 2012. As a Garnet
Gull she won 17 state champi-
onships, competing in cross
country, indoor track and
outdoor track. In addition,
she was a three-year captain
and third-team all-state for
cross country in 2010 and
2011. Also, she was an Ocean
County cross country cham-
pion in 2010.
The Clemson girls team
will compete this weekend at
the Florida Relays in
Gainesville. Feerst will com-
pete in the steeplechase, an
event that she ranks fourth in
for Clemson history.
Feerst explained that last
year she could not compete
in the event due to a stress
fracture in her foot, so she is
excited about competing this
year.
VERGARI PLAYING STRONG
FOR PENN STATE ALTOONA
The Penn State Altoona
men’s tennis team is also do-
ing well in part to a Point
Beach graduate.
Tony Vergari helped the
Nittany Lions to their second
straight win on Wednesday
March 25. They faced non-
conference opponent Saint
Vincent College and came
away with an 8-1 victory.
Vergari, along with doubles
partner Adam Cook, won the
second doubles match 8-6.
Then in the no. 6 singles
match Vergari rounded out
the Altoona win 6-3 and 6-2.
As a team, the Altoona
team lost their first match of
this season but have won four
straight since then.
They hold a 4-1 record and
are 2-1 in the Allegheny
Mountain Collegiate Confer-
ence.
In high school Vergari was
a four-year varsity tennis let-
ter winner and a member of
the 2009 team that won the B
Central title and the Central
Jersey Group I crown.
Vergari is currently a jun-
ior and is majoring in verte-
brate physiology.
The Altoona squad will
take on Mount Aloysius Col-
lege on Tuesday April 7.
