MANASQUAN — Large crowds spread out
along First Avenue and the beachfront last
Thursday for a parade honoring Point Boro
alum and Manasquan resident Christie
Rampone, captain of the World Cup Cham-
pion U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team.
With her family by her side, husband
Chris and their daughters Rylie, 9 and Re-
ece, 5, Rampone followed hundreds of youth
soccer players and government officials
along the route, to cheers and chants of
“USA, USA.”
COMING HOME
Since her team’s 5-2 victory over Japan in
the World Cup finals on July 5, Rampone has
been on a victory tour that has taken her all
over the country, from celebrations with her
team on the west coast, to the ticker tape pa-
rade and Taylor Swift concert cameo in New
York City, to being presented with the Best
Team Award at the ESPYs.
“It’s been amazing,” the former Point
Pleasant Boro High School three-sport star
athlete said. “We had such a warm welcom-
ing home with the team going from east
coast to west coast. It has all been fun and
exciting, but it’s nice to see familiar faces. I
haven’t gotten to see a lot of friends [since
coming back to America]. This is a fun
night.”
Rampone, who has been on the U.S.
Women’s National Team since 1999, became
a household name as a star at Monmouth
University, from where she was first called
up to the national team’s roster. Her college
teammate Heather Garrett-Muly, now a
school board member, said at the time no
one knew where Monmouth University was.
“They didn’t know where she was from or
what she was doing there,” Garrett-Muly
said. “But let me tell you, they know now.”
Since her international playing career be-
gan 16 years ago, Rampone has won two
World Cup Championships and four
Olympic medals, three gold and one silver.
“Being in this community growing up,
playing on the soccer fields and making it as
far as I can, it’s cool to come back and be
that inspiration to those young kids,” Ram-
pone said. “Hopefully they can accomplish
their dream, too, whether it is being a pro-
fessional athlete or whatever else they want
to do.”

POINT BEACH — Ask any high school volleyball
coach what the two most important aspects of
volleyball are and the answers will be the same:
passing and serving.
The philosophy is no different for first year
varsity head coach Andrew Hanniffy as he takes
charge of the Point Beach girls volleyball team
this fall season.
“I think we have a good group of servers, so
really what we need to do is pass the ball more
consistently and be able to generate offense
from that,” said Hanniffy.
The Garnet Gulls compete in the B North di-
vision along with Red Bank Catholic, St. John
Vianney, Rumson-Fair Haven, Raritan, Keyport
and Holmdel.
Last season it was getting a solid first touch
that proved to be difficult. Without a strong first
pass it creates a more difficult situation for the
team’s setter to set up a hitter. Hanniffy and the

THE OCEAN STAR
POINT BEACH — The Garnet Gulls girls ten-
nis team was hard at work on the court this
week as the fall season looms closer and
closer.
A varsity squad of 17 players that features
seven seniors fought through the humidity
during the early hours of the morning to
work on hitting, serving and serve receive.
Under the direction of head coach Kim
Pellerito, who is approaching her seventh
year as the varsity coach, the Point Beach
team will look to shake up the B Central di-
vision this season.
Last season the team finished third in
their division behind Ranney and St. Rose,
two programs that excel in tennis year after
year.
“We just couldn’t put together a win
against them- a couple 3-2 heartbreakers,”
explained Pellerito.
The Garnet Gulls worked through a con-
stant barrage of illnesses and injuries that
made it tough to put a consistently strong
doubles team on the court, something Pel-
lerito hopes is not an issue this year.
“I’m really hoping we get a good group to-
gether that gets to stay together and gets to
grow instead of just playing a game or two
and then someone leaving,” she said.
In addition, Pellerito is looking for more
consistency from her starting players and is
utilizing the preseason to build that up.

The preseason is well un-
derway for high school fall
sports, but the summer heat
is far from over. From fields
without shade to heavy pads
and equipment, it is impor-
tant to take care of your body
and prevent injury.
According to Dr. Mick
Koester, a pediatric sports
medicine specialist and Chair
of the NFHS Sports Medicine
Advisory Committee, exer-
tional heat stroke is the lead-
ing cause of preventable
death in high school athletics
and also results in thousands
of emergency room visits and
hospitalizations through the
nation each year. Now, exer-
tional heat stroke is one of
the more extreme conse-
quences of physical activity
in a hot environment, but
more common occurrences
are heat exhaustion and de-
hydration.
While coaches do their
best to beat the heat with ear-
ly morning practices, it is
sometimes difficult to keep
track of each player on the
team. Have no fear, though;
there are symptoms to be
cautious of and techniques to
help prevent heat stroke, heat
exhaustion and dehydration.
For starters, it is always
smart to hydrate before a
practice. This does not mean
chugging multiple bottles of
water or Gatorade because
that would only lead to an
uncomfortable stomach and
practice. As you work out or
practice your body sweats
out water weight so hydrat-
ing before gives you some re-
serves as the day wears on.
Another suggestion from
the National Federation of
State High School Associa-
tions [NFHS] is to start slow
and increase intensity at a
moderate pace. This is why
there are usually warm-ups
and stretches before practice.
It is good to start with a jog
and stretch as it gradually
warms up the body as oppose
to jumping right into sprints
or arduous activities, which
lead to spikes in body tem-
perature. Utilizing a good
warm up gives the body time
to acclimate to the environ-
ment.
Even though utilizing the
aforementioned steps prior
to a practice is helpful, heat
exhaustion, stroke and dehy-
dration can still settle in. This
means it is important to be
aware of your own body’s re-
actions and report to a coach
or medical trainer if neces-
sary.
Some symptoms to be
weary of include a dry
mouth, dizziness, cramps,
nausea and headaches.
Should any of those symp-
toms set in, it is important to
find shade and begin hydrat-
ing.
Water and sports drinks
like Gatorade are good ways
to help your body out.
Gatorade contains carbohy-
drates and electrolytes, which
are helpful in replacing losses
and providing energy.
For those athletes encum-
bered by equipment it is es-
sential to remove pads and
helmets for the moment to let
your body breathe and re-
lease heat trapped under the
equipment. It is a good habit
for football players and
goalies to remove their hel-
mets when not participating
in the practice.
Remember it is also impor-
tant to let any coach or med-
ical trainer know if you feel
heat exhaustion or dehydra-
tion and they will take the
necessary action to ensure
your health.
After cooling down and re-
covering from exhaustion or
dehydration it is tough to not
want to jump right back into
play. As stated earlier, if the
symptoms have subsided and
it is deemed that you can re-
turn to practice, take it slow
and continue to stay aware of
your body. An injury related
to these incidents could have
long-term effects that prevent
you from participating in the
season.
Coaches have been trained
to be alert and aware of their
teams’ exhaustion levels and
incorporate water breaks and
rests throughout practices to
keep everyone in check.
As far as I have seen walk-
ing around practices, each
team has their own water
cooler to drink from through-
out practice as well.
If you are a parent, it is im-
portant to make sure your
child has liquids with them
before they jump on their
bike and ride to practice. Also
make sure they rehydrate and
fuel up with food after prac-
tices to keep energy levels op-
timal.
The sun remains relentless
and winter is still a good few
months away. Take care of
yourself now so you do not
have to worry about it later
and, most importantly, re-
member to have fun.

Last season the Garnet Gulls girls tennis team finished third in the B
Central behind Ranney and St. Rose. Players have been working hard
in the offseason in an effort to change that outcome this year.

POINT BEACH GIRLS TENNIS
“The singles players need
to become more consistent
[with] keeping the ball in
play and really trying to just
out hit one more ball than the
other team,” she said.
The Garnet Gull team lost
two valuable contributors in
Molly Laterza and Chloe
Johnson who won the Ocean
County Tennis Tournament
in doubles play last year. Pel-
lerito is confident the team is
ready to fill the holes though,
saying, “This year we’re look-
ing forward to coming out.
We’re returning most of our
team. I graduated the first
doubles team that won the
OCT last year so that’s a big
hit but we have a lot of talent-
ed players to take their posi-
tions and right now they’re
all vying for those starting
seven spots.”
The players on the team
have made good use of the
offseason by playing tennis
with each other, playing at
the Atlantic Club and other
clubs in Toms River. They
have been putting in the extra
effort necessary to be on top
of their game and ready for
the first serve of the season.
The team consists of seven
seniors, several sophomores
and no freshman. Five of the
17 players are returning
starters and while the two
captains have yet to be decid-
ed, Pellerito has a good idea
of who they will be.
“They both show great
leadership on the court as it
is. They’re both good role
models for the students,” said
Pellerito. “So I’m hoping
they’ll be able to guide the
younger kids.”
Look for a strong season
from the team as they remain
deep in depth and have the
leadership and discipline
necessary to shape a compet-
itive B Central squad.
The girls’ season opens up
Thursday Sept. 10 on the road
against Long Branch.

team hope to start each side
with a good first pass and
work from there.
Last year the team worked
a 6-2 and Erinne Regan was
one of two setters. Accord-
ing to Hanniffy, as it stands,
the team will most likely uti-
lize a 5-1 with Regan as their
sole setter. He said the team
will also look to make use of
a libero, which is a defensive
specialist that plays back
row full time.
Regan will look to utilize
her middle and outside hit-
ters.
“We have good experience
in the middle position,” said
Hanniffy. “Madeline White
was third team all confer-
ence as an outside hitter last
year. She’s back for her sen-
ior year. She’s a focal point
for us.”
White was The Ocean
Star’s volleyball athlete of
the season last year for her
stellar play on the court in-
cluding two 10-kill games
against Lakewood and Rari-
tan and a game against Red
Bank Catholic where she
recorded 14 digs.
She returns for her senior
season as one of two cap-
tains for the Point Beach
varsity squad.
“I just really want to get
the new girls into the sport
as much as I was as a fresh-
man. Coming in I met a sen-
ior girl that completely
transformed the sport for me
and I fell in love with it and
I want to do the same for
them,” said White in regards
to her goals for her last sea-
son on the team.
During the offseason
White has been working on
her vertical to improve her
hitting as well as her de-
fense.
“I’ve been at the gym four
times a week and I’ve been
doing a lot of jumping,” she
explained.
White boasts a strong
serve and arm when it
comes to hitting and hopes
to show opponents what she
can do at the net. She also
looks to help the Gulls to a
winning season after the
team fell below .500 last
year. They made the state
tournament where they fell
to Glen Rock and the Gulls
missed the cut for the Shore
Conference Tournament.
“I’d like to have a winning
season of course and I’d like
to get a number on the ban-
ner,” said White with a
smile.
Hanniffy will look to
White and the five other
seniors on the team to be
leaders. For him composure
will play a big role during
the season.
“They have that level of
experience and maturity,”
stated Hanniffy. “As far as
their relation to other teams,
this is the fourth year in this
division so we’re getting to
know these other teams and
what their strengths are. So
that’s something they can
look for.”
While this may be Han-
niffy’s first year as varsity
head coach, he will utilize his
four years as coach of the
junior varsity squad to propel
the Garnet Gulls to new
heights.
Point Beach opens their
season on the road Wednes-
day, Sept. 9, against Long
Branch.

CHRISTOPHER NEELY THE OCEAN STAR
Manasquan residents spread out along First Avenue and the beachfront in Manasquan in celebration of
World Cup champion Christie Rampone last Thursday. Rampone was a multisport athlete at Point
Pleasant Boro High School and now resides with her family in Manasquan.
CHRISTOPHER NEELY THE OCEAN STAR
Manasquan residents went all out in celebration of Christie Rampone who was recognized not only
for her athletic accomplishments but also for her efforts to give back to her community.
A POSITIVE INFLUENCE IN
THE COMMUNITY
Rampone also garners a lot
of respect as a citizen and a
mother to her two children.
“Anytime we can honor
great athletes and great fami-
ly people like the Rampones,
we have to do that,” Lt. Gov.
Kim Guadagno said.
Mayor George Dempsey
called Rampone a local treas-
ure for her work within the
community.
“It’s great that she repre-
sents the town, but more im-
portantly it’s great what she
does with all our youth soc-
cer players and her work at
Meridian Hospital,” Mayor
George Dempsey said.
Councilman Jeff Lee
echoed the mayor’s senti-
ments.
“Manasquan is quick to be
proud of so many things, but
here is an example of some-
one on the world stage but
can pull our community to-
gether,” Councilman Lee said.
“I can’t imagine being that
successful, but I think it
speaks volumes to the person
she is that she would take
time to celebrate with us.”
A COMMUNITY GIVES BACK
Following the parade,
Rampone took the stage in
front of the Main Street
Beach headquarters, where
she was first presented with a
proclamation and a key to the
Borough of Manasquan.
“Christie has inspired so
many young people and has
demonstrated a positive role
for young girls everywhere,”
Mayor Dempsey told the au-
dience. “I would like to give
her a real key this time in-
stead of the little dinky one
we gave her for the Olympics
[in 2012].”
Glen Feldman, represent-
ing New Jersey’s 10th and
30th legislative districts, pre-
sented Rampone with a reso-
lution on behalf of the New
Jersey Legislature.
She was also presented
with two season badges for
the 2016 beach season from
Manasquan Tourism and was
also presented with a bench
dedicated to her and her fam-
ily from the Manasquan
Recreation Department.
Tony Alfano, from the
Manasquan Elks closed out
the presentations, with an of-
ficial certification that a flag
was flown over the U.S. Capi-
tol at the request of U.S. Rep.
Chris Smith [R-4] to honor
Rampone for “living her
American dream and her
tireless efforts to promote
women’s soccer to the com-
munity.”
Before the Billy Lawlor
Band and fireworks presenta-
tion closed out the evening,
Rampone thanked everyone
for coming to celebrate.
“It’s been amazing to be
part of such a small-knit com-
munity with so many people
supporting me along the
way,” Rampone said. “If you
see me around town, don’t be
afraid to come up to me.
That’s why I’m here in this lo-
cal community; to give back.”

A LOOK BACK
A crosstown football rivalry:The history
BY DOMINICK POLLIO
THE OCEAN STAR
POINT PLEASANT — Way back
in the year 1964, it cost a
mere five cents for a first-
class stamp, 30 cents for a
gallon of gas, 54 cents for one
dozen eggs and 95 cents for a
gallon of milk. But if one
were interested in witnessing
the first football game be-
tween crosstown rival high
schools Point Pleasant Boro
and Point Pleasant Beach,
then 50 cents before game
day or $1 at the gate would se-
cure you a spot in the stands.
The Garnet Gulls were al-
ready an established varsity
football program while the
Point Boro Panthers were
still a three-year school. Un-
der Shore Conference rules
at the time, they were re-
quired to play a full varsity
schedule, so they made the
short trip over to Point Beach
for a Saturday morning foot-
ball game.
Point Beach wasted no
time taking care of the Pan-
thers’ first-year varsity pro-
gram. Behind strong Garnet
Gull defense and two scores
from fullback Jeff Patterson,
Point Beach finished on top
27-7 in the Halloween day
showdown.
The rivalry as a whole did
not stay in Point Beach’s fa-
vor as the years went on.
From 1964 to 1973, Point Boro
won the young across-the-
canal rivalry in dominant
fashion. During the span of
1965-1970, Point Beach did
not score one point against
the Panthers.
In 1968, Point Boro topped
an injury-ridden Point Beach
team 45-0 with two touch-
downs apiece for Jack Vitale
and Paul Kenney. The Pan-
thers went on to clinch the
Shore Conference C Division
Championship for the second
year in a row with a 42-6 win
over Keyport. It also marked
the second season in a row
the Panthers went undefeat-
ed.
The Point Boro Panthers
continued routing the Garnet
Gulls with a 30-0 win in 1969,
a 56-0 win in 1970 and a 60-8
win in 1971. They also
claimed victories in 1972 and
1973.
Although Point Beach did
not win in 1974, they did keep
Point Boro from claiming an-
other victory. The rivals
clashed on the gridiron for
what ended up being a 6-6 tie
and the only tie of the rivalry
thus far. The following year
Point Beach finally found a
way to win as they topped
Point Boro 28-6.
Point Beach’s glory was
short-lived, though, as the
crosstown football rivalry
was put on hold for the next
25 years.
In 1976, the Point Boro
football squad joined a newly
formed Shore Conference B
Division, which did not in-
clude the Garnet Gulls. This
did not mean the rivalry was
dead — it just meant it was
not being played out on the
football field.
As had been going on in
the background during the
popular football rivalry, the
Panthers and the Garnet
Gulls were clashing in other
varsity sports. They ran
against each other in cross
country and track, faced each
other on opposite sides of the
net on the tennis court, shot
against each other on the
pitch in soccer and competed
against each other in various
winter and spring sports.
As the years continued,
teams got better and teams
got worse. New teams and di-
visions were popping up all
across the Shore Conference
as well as the state of New
Jersey. These factors led the
Boro vs. Beach rivalry into
somewhat of a slumber as
fewer sports featured the
crosstown battle.
Then rolled around 1999
and, in an unlikely turn of
events, the two football pro-
grams found themselves face
to face in an NJSIAA consola-
tion round game. Point Boro
took the victory 19-6 after not
having played the Gulls in
over two decades.
In the following season
[2000], both teams were
placed in the same division of
the Shore Conference, which
meant they would face each
other at some point in the
season.
Taking advantage of the
popularity the game could
see, the schools decided to
play the game on Thanksgiv-
ing Day, adding a new holiday
tradition like turkey, sweet
potatoes and pumpkin pie.
In their first meeting, the
Point Boro Panthers domi-
nated Point Beach 41-13 and
marked the start of a one-
sided holiday tradition in
which the winner became the
owner of the Don McIntyre
Team Trophy.
The Panthers went on to
win the next nine games be-
fore the Thanksgiving tradi-
tion came to close after the
2009 season. Point Boro won
that final game 41-13 and
leads the football rivalry with
a record of 20-2-1.
The two teams now play in
separate divisions, but the ri-
valry lives on in those that
were a part of the tradition
and in the three sports that
still feature the rivalry
[wrestling, tennis and base-
ball].
This summer, a petition to
bring the Beach-Boro rivalry
back to as many sports as
possible received over 3,500
signatures from local resi-
dents, highlighting the appeal
of such a competition. Creat-
ed by Point Beach resident
Craig Sulaitis, the petition
was presented to both
schools’ boards of education
and to the attention of the
athletic directors.
According to Sulaitis, Point
Boro athletic director Chris
Ferrone and Point Beach ath-
letic director Ellen Magliaro
will be keeping their eyes
open for available opportuni-
ties to schedule more rivalry
games amongst the already
hectic schedules of the vari-
ous varsity sports.

Party boats are having
good trips to the bluefish
grounds catching lots of
small blues and mackerel for
everyone on board. Chum
slicks are drawing the fish in
and the small blues are then
being caught on bait and
small jigs such as Ava-17’s.
There have also been
some mahi moving into the
slick that are being caught
along with a few brown
sharks. The big blues how-
ever still remain absent from
the scene and hopefully will
reappear soon.
Fluke fishing in the ocean
is decent as the sharpies are
getting their share of keep-
ers as they know how to
catch the bigger fish and
where to go. Most other
boaters are getting plenty of
shorts and one or two keep-
ers. The Manasquan and
Shark rivers are also produc-
ing plenty of shorts. Keepers
however are harder to come
by in the rivers when com-
pared to out in the ocean.
Yellowfin tuna have
moved into the area of the
Bacardi to the Texas Tower
and boaters trolling green or
rainbow spreader bars or
daisy chains it tight have
been connecting with these
fish. The yellowfin range in
size from 40-6o pounds.
Some boats report catching
a few while other boats have
reported catching 8-10. On
the days the tight spread
doesn’t produce well the
tuna have been jumping on
ballyhoo fished way back on
Joe Shute’s.
The water in this area is
looking good as it is blue. If
you look at the satellite shot
a turbidity break occurs just
east of the Princess out to
the Chicken Canyon where
there is blended green and
blue water. As you move
east from here the water
looks very good and is 75-76
degrees. The satellite tur-
bidity shot that I look at is
from Capt Len Belcaro’s
Offshore Satellite Services
www.offshoresatelliteser-
vices.com. If you haven’t
good water is before you
used a service like this
before it is invaluable for
showing you where the good
water is before you go. Len’s
site has always been right on
for me.
The Manasquan River
Marlin and Tuna Club will
be holding the 35th Annual
Offshore Open August 29th
through September 5th. The
captain’s meeting will be
held at the host marina
Crystal Point on Friday
August 28 at 6:30 p.m.
Weigh-ins are nightly at
Brielle Yacht Club in Brielle.
The tournament provides
anglers with the opportunity
to fish two separate days or
one overnighter during the
course of the week. Once
again, the Ray Catena Auto
Group is the presenting
sponsor and has offered the
Ray Catena Audi Challenge-
a $4,000 cash award to the
largest yellowfin. This is in
addition to the Comstock
challenge, awarding $4,000
to the largest longfin. These
awards are included in the
base entry.
The tournament offers
Calcuttas for every eligible
specie with this year’s esti-
mated payout to exceed
$175,000. Last year’s tourna-
ment paid over $165,000 to
the winners and raised
funds for numerous fishing
and conservation related
charities, including the RFA,
RFA-NJ, the Catch a Dream
Foundation, Menhaden
Defenders, Re-Clam the Bay,
New Jersey Beach Buggy
Association and the George
Burlew Scholarship Fund,
providing scholarships to
marine biology graduate
students. The base entry fee
is still $500 which provides
tickets to the captain’s meet-
ing, awards dinner and the
entry for the tuna category.
The all-in Calcutta fee is
$3,200. Go to
www.mrmtc.com/offshore-
open for further details.”
Bob over at Fishermen’s
Den in Belmar reports
“There is good fluke fishing
in the Shark River but the
catch is dominated by shorts
with a 30:1 short to keeper
ratio. There are also plenty
of snappers and sea robins
that are being caught. Ed
Rydwan weighed in an 8-.5
pound fluke. Fluke fishing in
the ocean is spotty. Some
days the party boats have 20
or more keepers and on
other days 10 or fewer.
There are bluefish and small
striped bass 18-27 inches
being caught in the Point
Pleasant Canal at night.”
Captain Howard Bogan of
the Big Jamaica out of
Brielle reports “We had
another good weekend.
Fishing started out slow but
after Friday’s insane fishing
I expected more of the same
today. It was very slow for
the first hour but after that
the fish invaded the chum
slick they started to bite on
both jigs and bait. Everyone
caught plenty of fish. The
pool winner was Thanh
Nguyen from Latimer,
Pennsylvania with a 5 pound
bonito. We also did battle
with a couple of sharks
today. This fishing is great
for novices and children.
There is lots of action and
they can easily handle the
fish.
The Jamaica is sailing
Saturday night at 7:30 p.m.
Day trips sail every day at
7:30 a.m. Family Fun Fishing
Trips sail Sunday, Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday at
4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Fishing
and fireworks trips sail
every Thursday night from 5

catching fluke on the 4:30
p.m. trips. For reservations
and information call 732-528-
5014 or go to our website at
www.bigjamaica.com.”
Captain Ryan of the
Jamaica II out of Brielle
reports “We had excellent
fluke fishing several trips
this past week when condi-
tions were perfect. Lots of
nice fat 4-5 pounders in the
mix with shorts and way too
many big sea bass. Heather
James from Lincroft had a
limit of fluke to 6 pounds,
Dave Nelson from Princeton
had a limit to 5 pounds,
Ralph Moinari from North
Haledon had a limit to 6
pounds, Sig Morton from
Camden had a limit of fluke
to 5 pounds. we are fishing
rough bottom in 55 to 70 feet
of water. The monthly pool
leader is still Donny Patrick
from Trenton 7.8 pound
fluke. We sail Half Day Fluke
daily except Mondays 8 a.m.
and 2 p.m. All Day Marathon
7:30 a.m. every Monday.”

TIP OF THE WEEK
FROM JIM FREDA
If you cannot get bunker
when you go out, try mov-
ing out to 55 feet of water
from Spring Lake down to
Asbury and just blind cast
out swimming plugs rfom
your boat. Striped bass
have been holding on in
these waters.

  • 1. SPORTS The Ocean Star FRIDAY, AUGUST 21, 2015 PAGE 29 OVERTIME 30 RIVALRY HISTORY 33 FISHING TIPS 34 BY CHRISTOPHER NEELY THE OCEAN STAR MANASQUAN — Large crowds spread out along First Avenue and the beachfront last Thursday for a parade honoring Point Boro alum and Manasquan resident Christie Rampone, captain of the World Cup Cham- pion U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team. With her family by her side, husband Chris and their daughters Rylie, 9 and Re- ece, 5, Rampone followed hundreds of youth soccer players and government officials along the route, to cheers and chants of “USA, USA.” COMING HOME Since her team’s 5-2 victory over Japan in the World Cup finals on July 5, Rampone has been on a victory tour that has taken her all over the country, from celebrations with her team on the west coast, to the ticker tape pa- rade and Taylor Swift concert cameo in New York City, to being presented with the Best Team Award at the ESPYs. “It’s been amazing,” the former Point Pleasant Boro High School three-sport star athlete said. “We had such a warm welcom- ing home with the team going from east coast to west coast. It has all been fun and exciting, but it’s nice to see familiar faces. I haven’t gotten to see a lot of friends [since coming back to America]. This is a fun night.” Rampone, who has been on the U.S. Women’s National Team since 1999, became a household name as a star at Monmouth University, from where she was first called up to the national team’s roster. Her college teammate Heather Garrett-Muly, now a school board member, said at the time no one knew where Monmouth University was. “They didn’t know where she was from or what she was doing there,” Garrett-Muly said. “But let me tell you, they know now.” Since her international playing career be- gan 16 years ago, Rampone has won two World Cup Championships and four Olympic medals, three gold and one silver. “Being in this community growing up, playing on the soccer fields and making it as far as I can, it’s cool to come back and be that inspiration to those young kids,” Ram- pone said. “Hopefully they can accomplish their dream, too, whether it is being a pro- fessional athlete or whatever else they want to do.” CHRISTOPHER NEELY THE OCEAN STAR Christie Rampone posed for pictures and signed autographs for the many youth soccer players that came out to celebrate the two-time World Cup champion last Thursday in Manasquan. Point Pleasant Boro alum honored for soccer championship Christie Rampone celebrated with parade in Manasquan BY DOMINICK POLLIO THE OCEAN STAR POINT BEACH — Ask any high school volleyball coach what the two most important aspects of volleyball are and the answers will be the same: passing and serving. The philosophy is no different for first year varsity head coach Andrew Hanniffy as he takes charge of the Point Beach girls volleyball team this fall season. “I think we have a good group of servers, so really what we need to do is pass the ball more consistently and be able to generate offense from that,” said Hanniffy. The Garnet Gulls compete in the B North di- vision along with Red Bank Catholic, St. John Vianney, Rumson-Fair Haven, Raritan, Keyport and Holmdel. Last season it was getting a solid first touch that proved to be difficult. Without a strong first pass it creates a more difficult situation for the team’s setter to set up a hitter.

The team opens up their season on the road against Long Branch on Sept. 10. BY DOMINICK POLLIO THE OCEAN STAR POINT BEACH — The Garnet Gulls girls ten- nis team was hard at work on the court this week as the fall season looms closer and closer. A varsity squad of 17 players that features seven seniors fought through the humidity during the early hours of the morning to work on hitting, serving and serve receive. Under the direction of head coach Kim Pellerito, who is approaching her seventh year as the varsity coach, the Point Beach team will look to shake up the B Central di- vision this season. Last season the team finished third in their division behind Ranney and St. Rose, two programs that excel in tennis year after year. “We just couldn’t put together a win against them- a couple 3-2 heartbreakers,” explained Pellerito. The Garnet Gulls worked through a con- stant barrage of illnesses and injuries that made it tough to put a consistently strong doubles team on the court, something Pel- lerito hopes is not an issue this year. “I’m really hoping we get a good group to- gether that gets to stay together and gets to grow instead of just playing a game or two and then someone leaving,” she said. In addition, Pellerito is looking for more consistency from her starting players and is utilizing the preseason to build that up.

  • 2. WWW.STARNEWSGROUP.COMPAGE 30 THE OCEAN STAR FRIDAY, AUGUST 21, 2015 SPORTS The preseason is well un- derway for high school fall sports, but the summer heat is far from over. From fields without shade to heavy pads and equipment, it is impor- tant to take care of your body and prevent injury. According to Dr. Mick Koester, a pediatric sports medicine specialist and Chair of the NFHS Sports Medicine Advisory Committee, exer- tional heat stroke is the lead- ing cause of preventable death in high school athletics and also results in thousands of emergency room visits and hospitalizations through the nation each year. Now, exer- tional heat stroke is one of the more extreme conse- quences of physical activity in a hot environment, but more common occurrences are heat exhaustion and de- hydration. While coaches do their best to beat the heat with ear- ly morning practices, it is sometimes difficult to keep track of each player on the team. Have no fear, though; there are symptoms to be cautious of and techniques to help prevent heat stroke, heat exhaustion and dehydration. For starters, it is always smart to hydrate before a practice. This does not mean chugging multiple bottles of water or Gatorade because that would only lead to an uncomfortable stomach and practice. As you work out or practice your body sweats out water weight so hydrat- ing before gives you some re- serves as the day wears on. Another suggestion from the National Federation of State High School Associa- tions [NFHS] is to start slow and increase intensity at a moderate pace. This is why there are usually warm-ups and stretches before practice. It is good to start with a jog and stretch as it gradually warms up the body as oppose to jumping right into sprints or arduous activities, which lead to spikes in body tem- perature. Utilizing a good warm up gives the body time to acclimate to the environ- ment. Even though utilizing the aforementioned steps prior to a practice is helpful, heat exhaustion, stroke and dehy- dration can still settle in. This means it is important to be aware of your own body’s re- actions and report to a coach or medical trainer if neces- sary. Some symptoms to be weary of include a dry mouth, dizziness, cramps, nausea and headaches. Should any of those symp- toms set in, it is important to find shade and begin hydrat- ing. Water and sports drinks like Gatorade are good ways to help your body out. Gatorade contains carbohy- drates and electrolytes, which are helpful in replacing losses and providing energy. For those athletes encum- bered by equipment it is es- sential to remove pads and helmets for the moment to let your body breathe and re- lease heat trapped under the equipment. It is a good habit for football players and goalies to remove their hel- mets when not participating in the practice. Remember it is also impor- tant to let any coach or med- ical trainer know if you feel heat exhaustion or dehydra- tion and they will take the necessary action to ensure your health. After cooling down and re- covering from exhaustion or dehydration it is tough to not want to jump right back into play. As stated earlier, if the symptoms have subsided and it is deemed that you can re- turn to practice, take it slow and continue to stay aware of your body. An injury related to these incidents could have long-term effects that prevent you from participating in the season. Coaches have been trained to be alert and aware of their teams’ exhaustion levels and incorporate water breaks and rests throughout practices to keep everyone in check. As far as I have seen walk- ing around practices, each team has their own water cooler to drink from through- out practice as well. If you are a parent, it is im- portant to make sure your child has liquids with them before they jump on their bike and ride to practice. Also make sure they rehydrate and fuel up with food after prac- tices to keep energy levels op- timal. The sun remains relentless and winter is still a good few months away. Take care of yourself now so you do not have to worry about it later and, most importantly, re- member to have fun. Dominick Pollio covers sports for The Ocean Star.

OVERTIME BY DOMINICK POLLIO Protect yourself this hot preseason STEVE WEXLER THE OCEAN STAR Last season the Garnet Gulls girls tennis team finished third in the B Central behind Ranney and St. Rose. Players have been working hard in the offseason in an effort to change that outcome this year. STEVE WEXLER THE OCEAN STAR POINT BEACH GIRLS TENNIS “The singles players need to become more consistent [with] keeping the ball in play and really trying to just out hit one more ball than the other team,” she said. The Garnet Gull team lost two valuable contributors in Molly Laterza and Chloe Johnson who won the Ocean County Tennis Tournament in doubles play last year. Pel- lerito is confident the team is ready to fill the holes though, saying, “This year we’re look- ing forward to coming out. We’re returning most of our team. I graduated the first doubles team that won the OCT last year so that’s a big hit but we have a lot of talent- ed players to take their posi- tions and right now they’re all vying for those starting seven spots.” The players on the team have made good use of the offseason by playing tennis with each other, playing at the Atlantic Club and other clubs in Toms River. They have been putting in the extra effort necessary to be on top of their game and ready for the first serve of the season. The team consists of seven seniors, several sophomores and no freshman. Five of the 17 players are returning starters and while the two captains have yet to be decid- ed, Pellerito has a good idea of who they will be. “They both show great leadership on the court as it is. They’re both good role models for the students,” said Pellerito. “So I’m hoping they’ll be able to guide the younger kids.” Look for a strong season from the team as they remain deep in depth and have the leadership and discipline necessary to shape a compet- itive B Central squad. The girls’ season opens up Thursday Sept. 10 on the road against Long Branch. Dominick Pollio covers sports for The Ocean Star.

They play in the B North division and open up the year with a game on the road against Long Branch on Sept. 9. team hope to start each side with a good first pass and work from there. Last year the team worked a 6-2 and Erinne Regan was one of two setters. Accord- ing to Hanniffy, as it stands, the team will most likely uti- lize a 5-1 with Regan as their sole setter. He said the team will also look to make use of a libero, which is a defensive specialist that plays back row full time. Regan will look to utilize her middle and outside hit- ters. “We have good experience in the middle position,” said Hanniffy. “Madeline White was third team all confer- ence as an outside hitter last year. She’s back for her sen- ior year. She’s a focal point for us.” White was The Ocean Star’s volleyball athlete of the season last year for her stellar play on the court in- cluding two 10-kill games against Lakewood and Rari- tan and a game against Red Bank Catholic where she recorded 14 digs. She returns for her senior season as one of two cap- tains for the Point Beach varsity squad. “I just really want to get the new girls into the sport as much as I was as a fresh- man. Coming in I met a sen- ior girl that completely transformed the sport for me and I fell in love with it and I want to do the same for them,” said White in regards to her goals for her last sea- son on the team. During the offseason White has been working on her vertical to improve her hitting as well as her de- fense. “I’ve been at the gym four times a week and I’ve been doing a lot of jumping,” she explained. White boasts a strong serve and arm when it comes to hitting and hopes to show opponents what she can do at the net. She also looks to help the Gulls to a winning season after the team fell below .500 last year. They made the state tournament where they fell to Glen Rock and the Gulls missed the cut for the Shore Conference Tournament. “I’d like to have a winning season of course and I’d like to get a number on the ban- ner,” said White with a smile. Hanniffy will look to White and the five other seniors on the team to be leaders. For him composure will play a big role during the season. “They have that level of experience and maturity,” stated Hanniffy. “As far as their relation to other teams, this is the fourth year in this division so we’re getting to know these other teams and what their strengths are. So that’s something they can look for.” While this may be Han- niffy’s first year as varsity head coach, he will utilize his four years as coach of the junior varsity squad to propel the Garnet Gulls to new heights. Point Beach opens their season on the road Wednes- day, Sept. 9, against Long Branch. Dominick Pollio covers sports for The Ocean Star.

  • 4. WWW.STARNEWSGROUP.COMPAGE 32 THE OCEAN STAR FRIDAY, AUGUST 21, 2015 SPORTS CHRISTOPHER NEELY THE OCEAN STAR Manasquan residents spread out along First Avenue and the beachfront in Manasquan in celebration of World Cup champion Christie Rampone last Thursday. Rampone was a multisport athlete at Point Pleasant Boro High School and now resides with her family in Manasquan. CHRISTOPHER NEELY THE OCEAN STAR Manasquan residents went all out in celebration of Christie Rampone who was recognized not only for her athletic accomplishments but also for her efforts to give back to her community. A POSITIVE INFLUENCE IN THE COMMUNITY Rampone also garners a lot of respect as a citizen and a mother to her two children. “Anytime we can honor great athletes and great fami- ly people like the Rampones, we have to do that,” Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno said. Mayor George Dempsey called Rampone a local treas- ure for her work within the community. “It’s great that she repre- sents the town, but more im- portantly it’s great what she does with all our youth soc- cer players and her work at Meridian Hospital,” Mayor George Dempsey said. Councilman Jeff Lee echoed the mayor’s senti- ments. “Manasquan is quick to be proud of so many things, but here is an example of some- one on the world stage but can pull our community to- gether,” Councilman Lee said. “I can’t imagine being that successful, but I think it speaks volumes to the person she is that she would take time to celebrate with us.” A COMMUNITY GIVES BACK Following the parade, Rampone took the stage in front of the Main Street Beach headquarters, where she was first presented with a proclamation and a key to the Borough of Manasquan. “Christie has inspired so many young people and has demonstrated a positive role for young girls everywhere,” Mayor Dempsey told the au- dience. “I would like to give her a real key this time in- stead of the little dinky one we gave her for the Olympics [in 2012].” Glen Feldman, represent- ing New Jersey’s 10th and 30th legislative districts, pre- sented Rampone with a reso- lution on behalf of the New Jersey Legislature. She was also presented with two season badges for the 2016 beach season from Manasquan Tourism and was also presented with a bench dedicated to her and her fam- ily from the Manasquan Recreation Department. Tony Alfano, from the Manasquan Elks closed out the presentations, with an of- ficial certification that a flag was flown over the U.S. Capi- tol at the request of U.S. Rep. Chris Smith [R-4] to honor Rampone for “living her American dream and her tireless efforts to promote women’s soccer to the com- munity.” Before the Billy Lawlor Band and fireworks presenta- tion closed out the evening, Rampone thanked everyone for coming to celebrate. “It’s been amazing to be part of such a small-knit com- munity with so many people supporting me along the way,” Rampone said. “If you see me around town, don’t be afraid to come up to me. That’s why I’m here in this lo- cal community; to give back.” Christopher Neely reports for Star News Group. He can be reached at cneely@thecoaststar.com or 732-223- 0076 Ext 23.

EDWARD MCDERMOTT Applicant ($12.87) (39) (8/21) The Ocean Star ___________________________ BOROUGH OF POINT PLEASANT BEACH MAYOR AND COUNCIL NOTICE OF ADOPTION ORDINANCE 2015-17 AN ORDINANCE OF THE BOROUGH OF POINT PLEASANT BEACH, COUNTY OF OCEAN AND STATE OF A LOOK BACK A crosstown football rivalry:The history BY DOMINICK POLLIO THE OCEAN STAR POINT PLEASANT — Way back in the year 1964, it cost a mere five cents for a first- class stamp, 30 cents for a gallon of gas, 54 cents for one dozen eggs and 95 cents for a gallon of milk. But if one were interested in witnessing the first football game be- tween crosstown rival high schools Point Pleasant Boro and Point Pleasant Beach, then 50 cents before game day or $1 at the gate would se- cure you a spot in the stands. The Garnet Gulls were al- ready an established varsity football program while the Point Boro Panthers were still a three-year school. Un- der Shore Conference rules at the time, they were re- quired to play a full varsity schedule, so they made the short trip over to Point Beach for a Saturday morning foot- ball game. Point Beach wasted no time taking care of the Pan- thers’ first-year varsity pro- gram. Behind strong Garnet Gull defense and two scores from fullback Jeff Patterson, Point Beach finished on top 27-7 in the Halloween day showdown. The rivalry as a whole did not stay in Point Beach’s fa- vor as the years went on. From 1964 to 1973, Point Boro won the young across-the- canal rivalry in dominant fashion. During the span of 1965-1970, Point Beach did not score one point against the Panthers. In 1968, Point Boro topped an injury-ridden Point Beach team 45-0 with two touch- downs apiece for Jack Vitale and Paul Kenney. The Pan- thers went on to clinch the Shore Conference C Division Championship for the second year in a row with a 42-6 win over Keyport. It also marked the second season in a row the Panthers went undefeat- ed. The Point Boro Panthers continued routing the Garnet Gulls with a 30-0 win in 1969, a 56-0 win in 1970 and a 60-8 win in 1971. They also claimed victories in 1972 and 1973. Although Point Beach did not win in 1974, they did keep Point Boro from claiming an- other victory. The rivals clashed on the gridiron for what ended up being a 6-6 tie and the only tie of the rivalry thus far. The following year Point Beach finally found a way to win as they topped Point Boro 28-6. Point Beach’s glory was short-lived, though, as the crosstown football rivalry was put on hold for the next 25 years. In 1976, the Point Boro football squad joined a newly formed Shore Conference B Division, which did not in- clude the Garnet Gulls. This did not mean the rivalry was dead — it just meant it was not being played out on the football field. As had been going on in the background during the popular football rivalry, the Panthers and the Garnet Gulls were clashing in other varsity sports. They ran against each other in cross country and track, faced each other on opposite sides of the net on the tennis court, shot against each other on the pitch in soccer and competed against each other in various winter and spring sports. As the years continued, teams got better and teams got worse. New teams and di- visions were popping up all across the Shore Conference as well as the state of New Jersey. These factors led the Boro vs. Beach rivalry into somewhat of a slumber as fewer sports featured the crosstown battle. Then rolled around 1999 and, in an unlikely turn of events, the two football pro- grams found themselves face to face in an NJSIAA consola- tion round game. Point Boro took the victory 19-6 after not having played the Gulls in over two decades. In the following season [2000], both teams were placed in the same division of the Shore Conference, which meant they would face each other at some point in the season. Taking advantage of the popularity the game could see, the schools decided to play the game on Thanksgiv- ing Day, adding a new holiday tradition like turkey, sweet potatoes and pumpkin pie. In their first meeting, the Point Boro Panthers domi- nated Point Beach 41-13 and marked the start of a one- sided holiday tradition in which the winner became the owner of the Don McIntyre Team Trophy. The Panthers went on to win the next nine games be- fore the Thanksgiving tradi- tion came to close after the 2009 season. Point Boro won that final game 41-13 and leads the football rivalry with a record of 20-2-1. The two teams now play in separate divisions, but the ri- valry lives on in those that were a part of the tradition and in the three sports that still feature the rivalry [wrestling, tennis and base- ball]. This summer, a petition to bring the Beach-Boro rivalry back to as many sports as possible received over 3,500 signatures from local resi- dents, highlighting the appeal of such a competition. Creat- ed by Point Beach resident Craig Sulaitis, the petition was presented to both schools’ boards of education and to the attention of the athletic directors. According to Sulaitis, Point Boro athletic director Chris Ferrone and Point Beach ath- letic director Ellen Magliaro will be keeping their eyes open for available opportuni- ties to schedule more rivalry games amongst the already hectic schedules of the vari- ous varsity sports.

WWW.STARNEWSGROUP.COMPAGE 34 THE OCEAN STAR FRIDAY, AUGUST 21, 2015 SPORTS Party boats are having good trips to the bluefish grounds catching lots of small blues and mackerel for everyone on board. Chum slicks are drawing the fish in and the small blues are then being caught on bait and small jigs such as Ava-17’s. There have also been some mahi moving into the slick that are being caught along with a few brown sharks. The big blues how- ever still remain absent from the scene and hopefully will reappear soon. Fluke fishing in the ocean is decent as the sharpies are getting their share of keep- ers as they know how to catch the bigger fish and where to go. Most other boaters are getting plenty of shorts and one or two keep- ers. The Manasquan and Shark rivers are also produc- ing plenty of shorts. Keepers however are harder to come by in the rivers when com- pared to out in the ocean. Yellowfin tuna have moved into the area of the Bacardi to the Texas Tower and boaters trolling green or rainbow spreader bars or daisy chains it tight have been connecting with these fish. The yellowfin range in size from 40-6o pounds. Some boats report catching a few while other boats have reported catching 8-10. On the days the tight spread doesn’t produce well the tuna have been jumping on ballyhoo fished way back on Joe Shute’s. The water in this area is looking good as it is blue. If you look at the satellite shot a turbidity break occurs just east of the Princess out to the Chicken Canyon where there is blended green and blue water. As you move east from here the water looks very good and is 75-76 degrees. The satellite tur- bidity shot that I look at is from Capt Len Belcaro’s Offshore Satellite Services www.offshoresatelliteser- vices.com. If you haven’t good water is before you used a service like this before it is invaluable for showing you where the good water is before you go. Len’s site has always been right on for me. The Manasquan River Marlin and Tuna Club will be holding the 35th Annual Offshore Open August 29th through September 5th. The captain’s meeting will be held at the host marina Crystal Point on Friday August 28 at 6:30 p.m. Weigh-ins are nightly at Brielle Yacht Club in Brielle. The tournament provides anglers with the opportunity to fish two separate days or one overnighter during the course of the week. Once again, the Ray Catena Auto Group is the presenting sponsor and has offered the Ray Catena Audi Challenge- a $4,000 cash award to the largest yellowfin. This is in addition to the Comstock challenge, awarding $4,000 to the largest longfin. These awards are included in the base entry. The tournament offers Calcuttas for every eligible specie with this year’s esti- mated payout to exceed $175,000. Last year’s tourna- ment paid over $165,000 to the winners and raised funds for numerous fishing and conservation related charities, including the RFA, RFA-NJ, the Catch a Dream Foundation, Menhaden Defenders, Re-Clam the Bay, New Jersey Beach Buggy Association and the George Burlew Scholarship Fund, providing scholarships to marine biology graduate students. The base entry fee is still $500 which provides tickets to the captain’s meet- ing, awards dinner and the entry for the tuna category. The all-in Calcutta fee is $3,200. Go to www.mrmtc.com/offshore- open for further details.” Bob over at Fishermen’s Den in Belmar reports “There is good fluke fishing in the Shark River but the catch is dominated by shorts with a 30:1 short to keeper ratio. There are also plenty of snappers and sea robins that are being caught. Ed Rydwan weighed in an 8-.5 pound fluke. Fluke fishing in the ocean is spotty. Some days the party boats have 20 or more keepers and on other days 10 or fewer. There are bluefish and small striped bass 18-27 inches being caught in the Point Pleasant Canal at night.” Captain Howard Bogan of the Big Jamaica out of Brielle reports “We had another good weekend. Fishing started out slow but after Friday’s insane fishing I expected more of the same today. It was very slow for the first hour but after that the fish invaded the chum slick they started to bite on both jigs and bait. Everyone caught plenty of fish. The pool winner was Thanh Nguyen from Latimer, Pennsylvania with a 5 pound bonito. We also did battle with a couple of sharks today. This fishing is great for novices and children. There is lots of action and they can easily handle the fish. The Jamaica is sailing Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. Day trips sail every day at 7:30 a.m. Family Fun Fishing Trips sail Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday at 4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Fishing and fireworks trips sail every Thursday night from 5 to 10 p.m. Presently we are catching fluke on the 4:30 p.m. trips. For reservations and information call 732-528- 5014 or go to our website at www.bigjamaica.com.” Captain Ryan of the Jamaica II out of Brielle reports “We had excellent fluke fishing several trips this past week when condi- tions were perfect. Lots of nice fat 4-5 pounders in the mix with shorts and way too many big sea bass. Heather James from Lincroft had a limit of fluke to 6 pounds, Dave Nelson from Princeton had a limit to 5 pounds, Ralph Moinari from North Haledon had a limit to 6 pounds, Sig Morton from Camden had a limit of fluke to 5 pounds. we are fishing rough bottom in 55 to 70 feet of water. The monthly pool leader is still Donny Patrick from Trenton 7.8 pound fluke. We sail Half Day Fluke daily except Mondays 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. All Day Marathon 7:30 a.m. every Monday.” Jim Freda covers fishing for Star News Group. He can be emailed at jimfre- da@optonline.net. FISHING TIPS BY JIM FREDA It is a good time for local fishing TIP OF THE WEEK FROM JIM FREDA If you cannot get bunker when you go out, try mov- ing out to 55 feet of water from Spring Lake down to Asbury and just blind cast out swimming plugs rfom your boat. Striped bass have been holding on in these waters.
