Catching Up

Let's catch up on the action that's taken place over the last few days.

Saturday was the big day for singles tournaments.  Dybuk75 has a great writeup of the North Jersey version, won by Nick Greco of Fair Lawn and Gabby Pangaro of Clifton. And the ever-efficient Manchester township bowling program has a website for the South Jersey version, won by Matthew Stephens of Egg Harbor and Dana Henry of Ocean Township.

Some teams skipped the singles for team competition at the Warren Wheeler tournament, won by Woodbridge Boys and Brick Township Girls.

In regular season play, Woodbridge maintains their game-average lead, firing 3041 & 3188 in the days before their tournament win, but Brick Memorial is running them down, shooting 3069 & 3216 on the same days. East Brunswick (3005) had a subpar day, for them, but clearly remains a top team.

Monroe posted an impressive 3085 on Thursday - East Brunswick won't have an easy path to GMC supremacy. Sussex Tech looks again to be the class of Northwest Jersey, breaking the 3000 barrier with a 3005. Montville's had an up-and-down start to the season, but they still have talent as evidenced by the 3003 they carded on Thursday, led by Erik Katterman's 712.

You miss a day or two and the honor scores pile up.  Here's a great big list of 700s posted since Thursday.

Alec Hehir, Brick Memorial 704
Ethan Goldring, Watchung Hills 704
Jordan Shackleford, Westampton Tech 712
Stephen Cracchiolo, Colonia 702
Andrew Handel, Seton Hall Prep 705
Angelo Salici, South Plainfield 731
David Neil, Pompton Lakes 300-703
Matthew Burzynski, Dickinson 756
Andrew Lazarchick, Brick Memorial 740
Kyle Bilawsky, Woodbridge 713
John Drost, Woodbridge 724
Jason Smith, Edison 707
Francis Vitelli, North Hunterdon 706
Austin Devereux, Manasquan 706
Matthew Young, Eastern 733
Dylan Ryan, Keansburg 701
Kyle Schellberg, Dumont
Joe Paolillo, Clifton 748
Gerald Chidichimo, Old Bridge 714

Overall, the girls side is just as crowded with quality teams, but the #1 squad is even more clear.  Brick Memorial is off to a dominant start at 12-0 in conference play, their last two matches at 3004 and 3124 (which featured 4 series over 600).

Brick Township is the clear #2 at this point, shooting 2768 on Friday to go with their Wheeler win.  Beyond that is a little stickier, as a bunch of teams can point to quality results that merit consideration.  Toms River South shot 2581 and carries a game average over 173.  Warren Hills is right there with TRS at 173.  Manchester has shot 2659 & 2624 the last two times out. Toms River North posted 2634 on Thursday.  Teaneck, Edison and Wayne Valley have impressive early-season tournament results.  It's crowded.

The 600s have been flying also.
