Head Coach Walt Krystopik Jackson Memorial

In his fourth season as the head coach of his alma mater, Krystopik took the Jaguars to the top of the Shore Conference and led them to their fourth NJSIAA title in program history to earn Shore Sports Network Coach of the Year honors.

Jackson Memorial finished 11-1 and captured its first Central Jersey Group IV title since going undefeated in 2005 by knocking off Middletown South, 21-18, at Rutgers University. The Jaguars ended Red Bank Catholic’s 40-game winning streak against Shore Conference competition with a 33-27 overtime victory during the regular season on their way to finishing No. 1 in the Shore Sports Network Top 10 rankings. They also finished as the top-ranked public school team in New Jersey. Jackson Memorial produced two 1,000-yard rushers, Mike Gawlik and Vinny Lee, for the first time in program history, and averaged 35.2 points per game to set a single-season school record with 423 points.

Krystopik has a 30-13 record in his four seasons as head coach, which includes leading the Jaguars to the Class A South title in 2013. A 1993 Jackson Memorial graduate, he played running back for Monmouth University from 1993-1996 in the infancy of the Hawks’ program, and then finished his degree at Thomas Edison State College in 1997.

He began his coaching career as a volunteer assistant at Jackson Memorial in 1998 under former coach Chris Barnes. He later served as the defensive coordinator under former coach Mike Smith from 2004-2010 before ascending to the head coach position in 2011.

Head Coach Mark Costantino Shore Regional

One of the Shore Conference’s winningest active coaches, “Coach Coz” helped the Blue Devils add two more championships to their crowded trophy case this past fall.

They finished 11-1, repeated as Class B Central champions, and won their first Central Jersey Group I title since 2010 in their third straight trip to the finals.

The Blue Devils were the Shore’s stingiest defense, allowing a conference-low 61 points (5.1 ppg) and posting six shutouts. They captured their sixth state title with a 42-12 win over South Hunterdon, marking their third state championship under Costantino.

Costantino also will be inducted into the Shore Football Coaches Foundation Hall of Fame at halftime of this year’s U.S. Army All-Shore Gridiron Classic. He has a career record of 153-85-1 since starting his tenure as head coach in 1992, and has led the Blue Devils to seven division titles, 14 state playoff appearances, seven appearances in the state finals, and state titles in 1997, 2010 and 2014. This is Costantino’s second time as head coach of the Monmouth County squad in the Gridiron Classic, as he led Monmouth to victory in the 1998 game.

He started his coaching career in 1987 as an assistant at Shore Regional under head coach Bob Rolak after finishing up his collegiate playing career at William Paterson University.

SFCF 2015 Hall of Fame Inductees ark Costantino

The career wins leader in Shore Regional history and one of the Shore Conference’s winningest active coaches, Costantino has made the Blue Devils a perennial power and one of the best small-school programs in New Jersey.

“Coach Coz” helped the Blue Devils add two more championships this past fall. They finished 11-1, repeated as Class B Central champions, and won their first Central Jersey Group I title since 2010 in their third straight trip to the finals. Costantino also is serving as the Monmouth County head coach in this year’s U.S. Army All-Shore Gridiron Classic.

His teams are known for physical defense and a punishing running game out of the Wing-T, which Shore Regional has employed as an offense since 1976. This past fall, the Blue Devils were the Shore’s stingiest defense, allowing a conference-low 61 points (5.1 ppg) and posting six shutouts. They captured their sixth state title in history with a 42-12 win over South Hunterdon.

He has a career record of 153-85-1 since beginning his tenure as head coach in 1992, and has led the Blue Devils to seven division titles, 14 state playoff appearances, seven appearances in the state finals, and state titles in 1997, 2010 and 2014. This is Costantino’s second time as head coach of the Monmouth County squad in the Gridiron Classic, as he led Monmouth to victory in the 1998 game.

16

Costantino started his coaching career in 1987 as an assistant under head coach Bob Rolak after finishing up his collegiate playing career at William Paterson University. He credits Rolak and former Shore head coaches Pete Sciarabba and Nick Cammarano as mentors who prepared him for when he eventually took over the head job.

Costantino also has been active in the Shore Football Coaches Foundation, serving as president and vice president over the years as well as serving on multiple committees. He

currently is a trustee for the SFCF. Costantino lives in West Long Branch with his wife, Felicia, and their two children, Michelle and Mark. The younger Costantino was an AllShore player for his father who helped the Blue Devils reach the Central Jersey Group I final in 2012.

hris Barnes

A former star running back at Middletown North, Barnes was the architect of two outstanding programs at Jackson Memorial and Wall during his 16 years as a head coach.

After a tremendous high school career for the Lions in which he became the program’s all-time leading rusher under legendary coach Vic Kubu, Barnes went on to play at Syracuse University from 1984-87. He began his coaching career in 1988 as an assistant at Middletown North under head coach Mike Galos before returning to Syracuse in 1989 as

Barnes lives in Brielle with his wife, Julia, and their three daughters. He is more than content to spend most afternoons on the sidelines as a devoted spectator for his children's soccer, lacrosse and softball games, and he continues to serve in the field of education as a School Counselor at Wall High School.

hris Christopher

A longtime fixture on the local sports scene, Christopher has worked for numerous newspapers and covered Shore Conference football for nearly 40 years.

He began writing sports at only eight years old for the Ocean County Daily Times in Lakewood, which was owned by his father, Sam. The elder Christopher died at 87 years old in February after a career in which his name became synonymous with Ocean County journalism.

Chris has carried on the family tradition by writing for the Jackson News, a weekly paper that was owned by his father, the Ocean County Observer, and The Asbury Park Press during his career. He currently covers high school, college, recreational and youth sports for The Two River Times in Red Bank and The Coaster in Asbury Park.

Christopher has won three New Jersey Press Association sportswriting awards during his career, and at one point wrote for 17 different newspapers and their websites at one time. He has covered all levels of sports, from youth to the professionals, and has interviewed everyone from Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson to T-ball players. He has also worked in sports on local cable television and local radio.

a student assistant under Hall of Famer Dick MacPherson.

He then rejoined the high school ranks, serving as the quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator at Middletown North from 1990-93. In 1994, he got his first head coaching job at Jackson Memorial, where he transformed a program that had little success in its history into a championship squad. He coached the Jaguars from 1994-99, which included the program’s first state playoff win in history in 1999. Barnes set the foundation that resulted in back-to-back undefeated seasons in 2000 and 2001 under former coach Reggie Lawrence for Jackson Memorial’s first state titles.

Barnes left Jackson Memorial to take the head job at Wall, which he brought to its greatest heights since its heyday in the early 1980s under Hall of Famer John Amabile.

From 2000-2011, Barnes led the Crimson Knights to five division titles, nine state playoff appearances, two trips to the state finals, and the 2002 Central Jersey Group III championship. The 2002 season marked Wall's third state title in history and first since 1983. Wall was 90-38 during Barnes’ tenure and also produced an NFL player, current Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Tim Wright.

Barnes has been an active member of the Shore Conference Football Coaches Foundation from its inception, serving in various positions for the association, including president, committee meeting facilitator and contributor to college recruiting fairs. He also has the unique distinction of having coached both the Monmouth County and Ocean County teams in the U.S. Army All-Shore Gridiron Classic, including a win by Monmouth in 2003.

SHORESPORTSNETWORK.COM

However, Christopher has always considered Shore Conference high school football his first love, enjoying the players, the coaches, the fans, the cheerleaders, the bands and the referees, and he loves the smell of hot dogs on a Saturday afternoon in high school stadiums. He believes high school football is one of the few remaining pieces of community in what is unfortunately becoming a more impersonal society. He also takes a deep interest in chronicling the exploits of the numerous former Shore Conference athletes who have starred in collegiate and professional sports.

Christopher covered local luminaries like former Central Regional pitcher Al Leiter, who starred for the Golden Eagles in the 1980s and went on to fame with the New York Mets and Yankees, Toronto Blue Jays and Miami Marlins. Currently, Christopher is proudly covering the Lakewood BlueClaws, one of the top draws in minor-league baseball, which he has covered since their inception in 2000. Still, he says “there is nothing like covering Shore Conference sports.”

fourth straight trip to the state finals. They tied the school record for wins with their third straight 11win season and also won their fifth straight division title. They graduate a tremendous senior class led by first-team All-Shore picks Kyle Mullen, Imamu Mayfield, Mike Caggiano, and Dan Debner, but have proven they are immune to graduation losses with their run over the past few years.

4. St. John Vianney (10-1)

T

he final 2014 top 10 rankings were compiled by a committee of Shore Sports Network’s Scott Stump, Bob Badders, Kevin Williams, Matt Harmon and Ed Sarluca.

By Scott Stump – Managing Editor

Jackson Memorial proved this season that it’s not how you start, it’s how you finish.

The Jaguars may not have won their division, but that didn’t stop them from unseating Red Bank Catholic as the No. 1 team in the Shore Conference to end the Caseys’ three-year reign atop the rankings. Jackson finished the season 11-1 after capturing its first Central Jersey Group IV title since 2005. In their final regular-season game, the Jaguars ended RBC’s 40-game winning streak against Shore Conference competition by winning a 33-27 overtime thriller on their home field.

They also emphatically avenged their lone loss of the season by beating Class A South champion Brick 44-0 in the sectional semifinals. The Jaguars not only finished atop the Shore, but also have finished the season ranked No. 2 in the state in most state-wide rankings while also finishing as the No. 1 public school team in New Jersey this fall.

Despite losing a quality senior class from an eight-win team a year ago, the Jaguars more than reloaded to come roaring to the front of the pack after being under the radar in the preseason.

With a pair of 1,000-yard rushers, sophomore Mike Gawlik and junior Vinny Lee, returning along with junior wide receiver/defensive back Kyle Johnson, junior kicker Jared Calhoun and a host of other talent, the Jaguars look to once again be right in the mix in 2015.

It was a banner season overall for the Shore Conference with a record six state champions, with five of them making the final Top 10 in one of the most competitive conferences in New Jersey.

Final Shore Sports Network Top 10 Recap 1. Jackson Memorial (11-1)

The Jaguars won their first Central Jersey Group IV title since 2005 and their fourth state title in history with a 21-18 win over No. 5 Middletown South under the guidance of Shore Sports Network Coach of the Year Walt Krystopik. They also boast a 33-27 win over No. 2 Red Bank Catholic and a 44-0 win over No. 6 Brick for an impressive resume that makes them the first public school team to finish No. 1 in the Shore since an undefeated Lacey squad in 2010. They also set a school record for points with 423 for the season and had a pair of 1,000-yard rushers in the same season for the first time in history. They lose a talented senior class filled with All-Shore selections but with a pair of 1,000-yard rushers returning in Vinny Lee and Mike Gawlik, they showed this season they have the ability to reload for another run.

2. Red Bank Catholic (11-1)

The Caseys may have lost their perch at the top, but they will gladly trade that for the fact that they brought home their first state championship since 1976. They made a dominating run to the Non-Public Group III title under coach Jim Portela, blasting Bishop Eustace 62-7, routing three-time defending champion St. Joseph’s-Montvale 44-14 and then taking care of Delbarton 45-20 in the final. They also picked up lop-sided wins over No. 3 Manalapan, No. 7 Neptune, and No. 9 Long Branch and won Class B North for their fifth straight division title. RBC won a school-record 11 games and set the singleseason school record for points scored with 543 to lead the Shore Conference. They graduate another outstanding senior class led by Shore Sports Network Defensive Player of the Year Jamie Gordinier, but with junior quarterback Eddie Hahn, junior running back/linebacker Dylan Murphy, junior two-way lineman Liam Smith and plenty more talent returning, they once again should be among the best in the Shore and the state in 2015.

3. Manalapan (11-1)

The Braves made history under coach Ed Gurrieri by capturing their first state title when they knocked off previously undefeated South Brunswick 21-7 to claim the Central Jersey Group V crown in their

36

The Lancers had their best season since the early 1980s in their first year under head coach Mark Ciccotelli, taking home the Class A Central title for their first division crown since 1982 and going undefeated against Shore Conference competition. They also won their first state playoff game since 1981 before falling to Delbarton in the Non-Public Group III semifinals. The Lancers had wins over No. 10 Rumson-Fair Haven, the Central Jersey Group II champion, as well as Central Jersey Group III champion Matawan and South Jersey Group III semifinalist Central, which was the Class B South cochampion. Their explosive offense averaged 42 points per game, second in the Shore Conference, and returns several of its key players next season, led by first-team All-Shore selection Anthony Brown, a junior quarterback. Wide receiver/cornerback Khalil Haskins, fullback/linebacker Calvin Beaty, lineman Micah Clark, wideout/defensive back Jeff Sheard, linebacker Tyler Tedeschi, and kicker Joe Rice all return next season to form what should once again be one of the Shore’s best teams.

5. Middletown South (9-3)

The Eagles reached their 11th state final in the past 14 years under coach Steve Antonucci and gave No. 1 Jackson Memorial a battle before falling 21-18 for their fifth straight loss in a state championship game. Their only losses were to No. 3 Manalapan, Central Jersey Group V finalist South Brunswick, and the Jaguars, and they had two wins over No. 7 Neptune.

With a loaded junior class led by the Rogers twins, Dylan and Cole, as well as quarterback/kicker Matt Mosquera, as well as a stellar sophomore class led by linebacker James McCarthy, this team has a ton of firepower returning to finally get over the hump and bring home its first state title since 2006 next season.

6. Brick (9-2)

The Green Dragons won their first division title since 2008 under coach Rob Dahl by claiming the Class A South crown and handing No. 1 Jackson Memorial its only loss of the season with a 30-24 overtime victory. Their two losses were a 44-0 loss to Jackson in the Central Jersey Group IV semifinals and a regular-season loss to Wall. They graduate a senior class headlined by quarterback Carmen Sclafani that made up nearly all of their starting lineup, so they will have a ton of production to replace next season to try to stay in the hunt in Class A South.

7. Neptune (8-3)

The Scarlet Fliers reached the Central Jersey Group IV semifinals in their first season under head coach Rodney Taylor before falling to Middletown South. Two of their three losses were to the Eagles and the other one was to No. 2 Red Bank Catholic. Their signature win was a 27-0 shutout of No. 9 Long Branch in which they held record-setting Long Branch senior tailback Dahmiere Willis to 17 yards rushing. Neptune graduates an outstanding class featuring the likes of Royal Moore, Oshane Curate, Andrew Holland-Samuels and Jaree Parrish, so there will be a lot for them to have to replace next fall.

8. Shore Regional (11-1)

The Blue Devils turned in one of their best seasons in their history under coach Mark Costantino as they marched to their first Central Jersey Group I title since 2010 and the sixth in their history after reaching the finals for the third straight year. They also captured their second straight Class B Central title thanks to the stingiest defense in the Shore, which allowed a conference-low 61 total points. They have a win over No. 10 Rumson-Fair Haven, and their only loss was to state finalist Dunellen while playing without two of their top players. While they graduate a strong senior class led by linebacker James Bedell and running back/defensive back Mike Moore, they return standout junior fullback/linebacker Doug Goldsmith as well as junior running back Tyreek McCain and others to gear up for another run.

9. Long Branch (8-3)

The story of the season for the Green Wave was senior tailback Dahmiere Willis, who earned Shore Sports Network Offensive Player of the Year honors after rushing for a Shore Conference-record 2,589 yards, the second-highest total in state history. Long Branch reached the Central Jersey Group III semifinals before falling to Carteret, a team it beat 31-6 earlier in the season. Their three losses were to Carteret, No. 7 Neptune and No. 2 RBC. The Green Wave also had a win over Central Jersey Group III champion Matawan in which Willis racked up a single-game school-record 370 yards rushing, and they beat Central Jersey Group II champion Rumson-Fair Haven. Long Branch loses a tremendous senior class led by Willis, linebackers Hunter Baillie and Brandon Lane, tight end/defensive end John Mimes, and cornerback Dave Colbert, but do return three junior starters on the offensive line and some promising skill talent.

10. Rumson-Fair Haven (9-3)

The Bulldogs won their second straight Central Jersey Group II title in two years under coach Bryan Batchler, blanking Delaware Valley 21-0 in another defensive gem in the finals. They also had a 31-10 regular-season win over Central Jersey Group III champion Matawan. Their losses were to No. 4 St. John Vianney, No. 8 Shore and No. 9 Long Branch, two of which came with star tailback Charlie Volker out of the lineup with an ankle injury. While Volker moves on to continue his career at Princeton and the Bulldogs lose some other solid seniors, their sophomore class is loaded, led by quarterback Mike O’Connor and linebacker Mike Ruane. They should be a legitimate threat to make it three straight state titles in 2015.
