PennEast Pipeline Gains FERC Approval, Faces Local Battles

More than three years after its pipeline project was first announced, PennEast last month received Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) approval to build the 120-mile pipeline in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The 120-mile pipeline would bring natural gas from Luzerne County in northeastern Pennsylvania across the Delaware River near Riegelsville, Pennsylvania, across Hunterdon County to the edge of Mercer County near Pennington. With approvals still needed from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP), the Delaware River Basin Commission (DRBC) and others, and widespread opposition from environmental groups, municipalities, property owners and other individuals, as well as New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy, the PennEast Pipeline project is likely to remain a battleground for many months, perhaps years to come. Taking the first step towards litigation, the Delaware Riverkeeper Network (DRN) filed a rehearing request with FERC on January 24, asking the agency to reconsider its approval. “From a lack of need to its devastating impacts on the environment, to the demonstrated false, misleading, and missing information provided by the PennEast companies to FERC, there is no way to support approval of this project,” said Delaware Riverkeeper leader Maya van Rossum. She continued, in a statement issued last month, “Our grounds for legal challenge are strong and we will pursue them. We also have many other battle fronts, including preventing permits from the state of New Jersey, defeating permits issued by Pennsylvania, and preventing approval by the Delaware River Basin Commission. We will fight on and we will win.” Citing the vast natural gas reserves in the Marcellus Shale of northeastern Pennsylvania, PennEast argues that the pipeline would significantly lower energy prices and provide a host of additional benefits for New Jersey residents. “Approval of the PennEast Pipeline is a major victory for New Jersey and Pennslvania families and businesses,” said Anthony Cox, chair of the PennEast Pipeline Company LLC Board of Managers. “They will reap the benefits of accessing one of the most affordable and abundant supplies of natural gas in all Continued on Page 10

Schools’ Space Crunch Spurs Innovative Plans Princeton Public Schools (PPS) are crowded, but the challenge for the community, its educators, and architects as they look ahead to an October 2 facilities referendum is not just to provide more room for students and staff, but to create the kinds of spaces that will help to transform the learning endeavor from a traditional industrial-age process to a 21st-century model. In describing the town hall meetings held last Thursday with architect Prakash Nair and education expert Heidi Hayes Jacobs and attended by a total of about 150 community members, PPS Superintendent Steve Cochrane said, “There was an excitement about how the transformation of space in our schools could also transform learning district-wide.” Emphasizing that “schools should reflect the world for which we are preparing our students,” Cochrane noted that par-

ticipants at the meetings showed “an appreciation for how the skills our students need for the contemporary world, skills such as collaboration, creativity, critical thinking, and problem solving, could be learned better in flexible, comfortable spaces that inspire students to apply and create knowledge—not just be recipients of it.” Cochrane also asserted the need to provide the time and the training for teachers to use the space in new ways. “I think people left with the sense that this referendum is not just about expanding space, but about transforming learning,” he said. “We are not, for example, adding a large addition at the high school, but looking instead to renovate and repurpose interior spaces, such as courtyards and hallways, to create welcoming, inspiring, and smaller learning communities.” He added, “We are growing in num-

bers, yes, but we are looking to use the transformation of space to create a stronger sense of community and human connection.” Nair, in showing slides of schools around the world designed by his architecture firm Fielding Nair International (FNI), cited the growing “relevance gap” between what children are learning inside and outside school, warning that schools are in danger of going the way of the post office in becoming obsolete. He praised PPS for its record of accomplishment and for its outstanding students and teachers, but “when it comes to buildings, you’re way behind the times,” he said.

Ongoing Issues at Griggs Farm Are Among Council Topics The continuing efforts to aid victims of the December 27, 2017 fire at Griggs Farm were the subject of some discussion at a meeting of Princeton Council Monday night, February 12. The governing body also held a brief work session on the 2018 budget, and passed a resolution regarding the renovation of the Mary Moss Playground. A public hearing and Council vote regarding McCaffrey’s Supermarket’s plan to purchase the liquor license owned by the now-closed CoolVines store was postponed until March 12. A local resident who has been helping people displaced by the Griggs Farm fire suggested that Council create a special fund that would kick in immediately should another disaster occur. Such a fund, which would be nonprofit, would ensure that guidelines would be in place and relief would be provided more quickly. While numerous individuals and organizations have contributed time, money, and supplies to help those made homeless by the fire, the response could have been better coordinated, according to Lawrence resident Martha Friend, who also spoke. “Taking nothing away from Princeton Community Housing and Princeton Human Services and their 24/7 work, there was a problem and balls were dropped,” she said. “We have to do this better. There are still people in incredible crisis. There have been some very generous people, Continued on Page 4

Preparedness Committee, suggested there should be some sort of insurance for the municipality to help cover those who are not insured. “There are lots of natural disasters that are predictable and increasing in frequency,” he said. Council voted unanimously to make a vacant unit at the Waxwood apartments on Quarry Street available for one of the Griggs Farm residents, for about a year or until the building is rebuilt. Under normal circumstances, the Waxwood units are given priority to people who meet the neighborhood preference qualification. But that requirement is waived in this situation. Council voted to award a construction contract to the Edison firm V&K Construction for work on the Mary

Mass Incarceration, Civil Rights Discussed at University Event

Michelle Alexander, author of The New Jim Crow, will discuss mass incarceration, criminal justice, and civil rights with Princeton University’s Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor on Monday, February 26, 6 p.m. at the University’s McCosh Hall. Alexander is a civil rights lawyer, social justice advocate, legal scholar, and visiting professor at Union Theological Seminary. Her 2010 book The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness argues that the United States’s criminal justice system functions as a system of racial control even as it formally adheres to the principle of color blindness. The bestseller received numerous awards including the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Non-fiction, and the National Council on Crime and Delinquency Prevention for a Safer Society Award. Taylor, assistant professor in the Department of African American Studies, is the author of From #Black Lives Matter to Black Liberation, an examination of the history and politics of Black America and the development of the social movement Black Lives Matter in response to police violence in the U.S. The book received the Lannan Foundation’s Cultural Freedom Award for an Especially Notable Book. The event is free and open to the public.

None of them claim culinary backgrounds. But the quartet of ambitious restauranteurs behind Tacoria Mexican Street Kitchen, currently under construction at 110 Nassau Street, immersed themselves in the art of food preparation before opening their first eatery in New Brunswick two years ago. “We’re all making tacos now,” said Sean Patel, of the partners and best friends. “We went to a kind of cooking camp for 30 days, 10 to

12 hours a day. And we’re now on our third location.” Projected to open in midspring, the Princeton branch of Tacoria follows successful locations in New Brunswick and Montclair. Opening here has long been a dream. “We have been coming to Princeton since we were young kids,” says Patel,

Ajihei on Chambers Street changed hands and is now Ajiten, still specializing in Japanese cuisine.

The Frutta Bowls chain is planning to move into the space that was a longtime home to Hulit’s Shoes. who is 35 and lives in North —Anne Levin Brunswick. “I wasn’t smart enough to get into Princeton [University] so I guess this is my way of making that up,” he joked. Between them, the four MONDAY partners have backgrounds in biology, economics, enFor Princeton gineering, and information technology. They knew they had a lot to learn before venturing into the food business. “It was a three-year project before we opened up,” Patel said. “We love to travel and we went everywhere. We consulted with different chefs and talked to everyone we could.” There was no room for a freezer in the first Tacoria in New Brunswick, so the partners learned to make do with fresh ingredients. “We went with that model and it has actually worked out great,” Patel said. Offering a fresh take on Mexican food, Tacoria is “quick, on the go, and with an average ticket of $10 to $11,” said Patel. “We’re not an expensive meal by any means.” Tacoria is one of several restaurants to appear on the local scene in recent months. While some empty storefronts illustrate challenges in the retail market, there is, lately, no shortage of dining options in different styles and price ranges. There have been some closings and relocations, too, adding to t he chang ing scene. Recently, Tre Piani in Forrestal Village closed its doors. So did Taco Truck in Princeton Shopping Center, but it has been replaced by Surf Taco. Also in the shopping center, Chopt began serving its trademark salads just before Thanksgiving. Edo Ramen on Witherspoon Street closed, but Lan Ramen popped up around the corner on Hulfish Street, in the downstairs space once occupied by Infini-T, the cafe that was irreparably damaged by a storm in 2016.

Celebrating Excellence In Education On Friday, February 23, the Princeton High School choirs, community choir volunteers, and praise dancers will collaborate for a celebration of gospel music in recognition of Black History Month. The concert, a biannual tradition at Princeton High School, will celebrate the artistic contributions of African Americans through the rich and diverse genres of American gospel music. The concert, titled A Spirituals and Gospel Festival, will feature students from all PHS choirs, as well as singers and praise dancers from the First Baptist Church of Princeton, Witherspoon Street Presbyterian Church, and Mt. Pisgah AME Church. A Spirituals and Gospel Festival will be the culmination of a weeklong musical celebration of Black History Month throughout the Princeton Public School District and will feature guest musician Raymond Wise, Ph.D. This weeklong celebration will highlight the evolution of gospel music, from spiritual to contemporary gospel. Dr. Wise will lead workshops and rehearsals with the PHS choirs to teach students about the history of gospel music and authentic gospel performance, and elementary and middle school students will participate in assemblies led by Dr. Wise and featuring the PHS Chamber Choir. Dr. Wise began his musical career at three years old, singing gospel music with his family’s singing group, The Wise Singers. Dr. Wise has appeared on radio and television, recorded 22 albums, performed with opera singers, orchestras, dance companies, professional recording groups, and has toured extensively throughout the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia, as a singer, dancer, pianist, composer, choral director, lecturer, and teacher. As founder and president of Raise Productions, he played a key role in establishing The Center For The Gospel Arts in Columbus, Ohio, which provides educational training for gospel artists and the community. Past guest musicians for the Black History Month concert have included trombonist Wycliffe Gordon, drummer Lenny White, blues musicians Lucky and Tamara Peterson, and gospel singer William Heard.

Principal Gary Snyder’s observation that “We need to break down walls, both literally and figuratively,” Nair described the current PHS building with its additions over the decades as “a 100-year-old model, completely out of date, suitable for educating students for the industrial age.” Nair went on to propose “three bold moves” to create “a school heart,” “a collaborative hub,” and “flexible learning zones,” with skylights built over the three courtyards. Jacobs, whose latest of more than 13 books is titled Bold Moves for Schools : How We Create Remarkable Lear ning Environments, emphasized that the future in education and in the larger world will be significantly different from the past. “Learners create and share knowledge differently from previous generations,” she said. Discussing the need for educators to understand “new literacies: digital, media, and global,” Jacobs warned, “Knowledge is burgeoning in every field every day.” Contemporary teachers and students, she said, need to be “literate self-navigators; r e s p on s ibl e r i s k- t a ke r s ; professional learners; social contractors, listening with understanding; media critics, communicating with clarity; savvy media-makers, working interdependently; mindful citizens; global ambassadors; and innovative designers.

Cochrane pointed out, “We’re still in the process,” of planning for the referendum, with more meetings ahead with students, teachers, and the larger community. The architects will return next month to share more details, especially regarding the proposed new school for grades five and six on the Valley Road site. PPS will submit preliminary building plans to the State Department of Education in April. No cost estimates have been determined at this point, but Cochrane, emphasizing the importance of responsible investment, mentioned that the tax burden would be somewhat mitigated by the possibility of money from the state and PPS’s plan to retire debt obligations in 2022 and 2023. —Donald Gilpin

Tax Cuts and Jobs Act Is Topic of Lunch Talk

Melinda D’Antuono and Douglas Smith of A xiom CPAs are speakers at the Gotham Princeton Lunch event, at 12:30 p.m. on Friday February 23 at Agricola Restaurant on Witherspoon Street. They will discuss the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that was passed at the end of 2017, the most sweeping tax law change since 1986. The provisions of the act significantly affect individuals and business alike. However, few provisions in the recently enacted Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Act, PL 115-97, 12/22/2017) are likely to have a greater impact or create more confusion than the new Code Sec.

199A deduction for non-corporate taxpayers for qualified business income: the Qualified Business Income (Pass-Through) Deduction Under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The deduction, effective for tax years beginning after Dec. 31, 2017 and before Jan. 1, 2026, is generally 20 percent of a taxpayer’s qualified business income from partnerships, S corporations, or sole proprietorships (i.e., the net amount of items of income, gain, deduction, and loss with respect to the trades or businesses). However, very little about the deduction, with its limitations, phaseouts, thresholds, and special definitions, is simple. The speakers will explore the intricacies of these provisions and translate them into layman’s terms to help explain the impact on businesses.

Concierge Medicine

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a new trend in healthcare, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gaining momentum in our area. 0g AO`OV 3[WZg 5WZPS`b =`WUW\OZZg ^cPZWaVSR W\ >`W\QSb]\ ;OUOhW\S 2` 0O`PO`O / 0`]e\ ZSTb O\R 2` :g\\S 0 9]aa]e ]T >`W\QSb]\ :WTSabgZS ;SRWQW\S

or the past two years, Dr. Lynne B. Kossow and Dr. Barbara A. Brown of Princeton Lifestyle Medicine have offered their patients far more than the traditional primary care practice. Most doctors see 25-30 patients a day for an average of 15 minutes, but Drs. Kossow and Brown see six to eight patients a day for up to an hour. In addition to providing treatment for acute illnesses, the doctors act as their clientsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; healthcare coaches through Lifestyle Medicine, a scientiďŹ c approach to patient wellness by effecting changes in areas such as diet, physical activity, and stress management. With the current shortage of primary care physicians and the abundance of high volume practices, this type of individualized attention is rare. However, by switching to a concierge format, doctors like Kossow and Brown are able to practice medicine that consists of this broad-spectrum care. Concierge medicine, also known as retainer-based medicine, is an umbrella term for private medical care wherein patients pay an out-of-pocket fee in exchange for enhanced care. Born in the 1990s, concierge medicine was once thought of as a service for the wealthy that charged patients a lofty fee for luxury medicine. In recent years, it has evolved to accommodate patients across all income brackets, leading to expanding interest among patients and their primary care doctors. According to a survey released by the American Academy of Private Physicians at the AAPP 2015 Fall Summit, more than 45 percent of 862 independent physicians would consider a concierge or similar membership model in the next three years. This may be due in part to our aging population needing increased and varied medical services, leading to an imbalanced patient/doctor ratio. The implementation of the Affordable Care Act has increased the number of insured patients, putting a further strain on primary care doctors. As a result, physicians are often unable to dedicate enough time to each patient. In the hopes of increasing both job and patient satisfaction in a ďŹ nancially sustainable way, primary physicians like Dr. Kossow and Dr. Brown are looking toward concierge medicine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where conventional medicine is failing is in the prevention and reversal of chronic diseases that are becoming an epidemic in the United States today,â&#x20AC;? explain the doctors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The current insurance model is built upon a problem-based economic reimbursement that encourages doctors to address medical problems very quickly. This leads to most doctors rushing to see 25-30 patients per day in order to make ends meetâ&#x20AC;ŚThis is not how we have ever practiced. We always want to have the time to address the root cause of diseases that are preventable today.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;For the past two years, we have been offering our Lifestyle Medicine Concierge Program as an optional program for our patients,â&#x20AC;? they continue. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lifestyle Medicine is a 21st century approach to healthcare that consolidates the very best characteristics of traditional medicine with the profound impact of lifestyle behaviors on health. As our program grew, it became readily apparent to us that integrating Lifestyle Medicine into our internal medicine practice

was the best way for us to continue to provide exceptional careâ&#x20AC;Ś We feel that the concierge model is the only way to effectively [do that].â&#x20AC;? Concierge medical practices come in various forms, including those that reject insurance plans all together, but this is not the case for Princeton Lifestyle Medicine. Dr. Kossow and Dr. Brown accept insurance for all covered medical services. In addition, their patients pay an annual fee of $1,200 for the Lifestyle Medicine Concierge program, which gives them access to an elevated level of care. Trained at the Institute of Lifestyle Medicine at Harvard Medical School, the doctors are at the vanguard of their ďŹ eld, having lectured about their practice development model at The Institute of Lifestyle Medicine Conference in 2015. They are also members of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine and the American College of Physicians. Dr. Kossow and Dr. Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s practice is unique in that it offers patients comprehensive conventional medical care combined with lifestyle counseling. Patients interested in a natural approach to disease prevention are provided in-depth, individualized coaching based on their needs. The doctors can assist with everything from quitting smoking to creating a manageable diet and exercise plan. According to the doctors, this is an evidence-based practice that has been shown to prevent, reverse, or slow down heart attacks, strokes, high blood pressure, diabetes, dementia, and some cancers. The concierge model offers Princeton Lifestyle Medicine patients additional beneďŹ ts including access to the doctorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; emails, cell phone numbers, and private phone line, extended patient ofďŹ ce visits, a one-hour consultation, and same or next day appointments. As a result, patients see Drs. Kossow and Brown not only as accomplished medical doctors, but health advocates, mentors, and even friends. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our practice structure allows us to spend more time educating our patients about what may be going on with them medically,â&#x20AC;? the doctors explain. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are better able to work with them as partners in their care and advocate for them with their specialists or if they are in the hospital. We provide tremendous support and guidance to them and their caretakers or family. We are happy to have this enhanced communication with our patients. It allows us to make social visits when they are hospitalized at the University Medical Center of Princeton at Plainsboro so that we can stay in close touch while they are receiving care.â&#x20AC;? Concierge practices like Princeton Lifestyle Medicine focus the healthcare system on its most vital component: the patient-doctor relationship. The model emphasizes quality care instead of quick care, beneďŹ tting both parties. This is helping revive medical studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; interest in internal medicine, which is predicted to increase the number of primary care doctors and revitalize our healthcare system. As leaders in both concierge and Lifestyle medicine, it comes as no surprise that Dr. Kossow and Dr. Brown are at the forefront of this effort, bringing Princeton into the future of healthcare.

of North America. PennEast will lower gas and electricity costs, increase reliability, improve air quality, and make the region more competitive for jobs in the coming decades.” Attorney Timothy Duggan, chair of Stark & Stark’s Eminent Domain Appeal Group, who represents individuals and businesses in challenging eminent domain proceedings, pointed out that gaining FERC approval empowers PennEast to file complaints using eminent domain to access properties for surveys and tests; to take easements rights to construct the pipeline; and to seek court determination of just compensation for easements or land. Duggan, who represents a number of property owners, noted, however, “PennEast has a long way to go to get approvals in New Jersey.” Commenting on Murphy’s opposition to the pipeline, Duggan said, “I hope that

emboldens NJDEP to give the PennEast application strict scrutiny. They’ll be fair, but they’ll insist that PennEast cross every ’t’ and dot every ‘i.’” Duggan went on to state that despite the contrary position taken by PennEast and FERC, “Studies have shown that there is not a significant need for more natural gas in New Jersey.” He added that appropriate compensation for land or easements taken by PennEast is another bone of contention. “Offers for compensation are not even close to being realistic, according to my clients. With a private company using the government’s power to take property, it’s not surprising that property owners object.” Duggan urged local residents to stay informed and get involved, even if the pipeline is not slated to pass through their property. “There has been land taken for pipelines in Princeton in the past,” he said. “All property owners should take an interest in this issue and be

active. Stay involved.” Earlier this month the NJDEP for the third time rejected the PennEast application, stating that it was missing information, but stipulated that PennEast could reapply. Since the PennEast pipeline was first announced, several groups have organized to fight the pipeline. As these groups challenge the issuance of the FERC certificate and ask for a rehearing in hopes that FERC will overturn their decision, PennEast continues to move forward with eminent domain complaints against property owners. PennEast also intends to reapply for approval for additional permits. “The pipeline will be cutting through communities, preserved open space, and farmland. The PennEast Pipeline would threaten the entire valley including 91 acres of wetlands and over 44 miles of forest, over 1,600 acres total,” the Sierra Club of New Jersey warned earlier this week in urging area residents to attend a meeting to “stand up and fight PennEast.” —Donald Gilpin

To the Editor: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take it personally.â&#x20AC;? Those words of wisdom were repeated again and again during my childhood. iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m regularly reminded of this wisdom when i feel offended by a president who has a habit of making inflammatory and insensitive remarks. Simply reacting and taking his comments as a personal affront isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t helpful in solving anything. But how do we respond or protest in some meaningful way? Last year, we saw nFL football players bring attention to racial and social injustices by going down on bended knee. in 1777, during the darkest hours of our countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s revolutionary struggles, the future first president of the United States was found on bended knee seeking guidance from divine providence. it might be well worth your time to do a quick internet search for â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Prayer at Valley Forge,â&#x20AC;? a painting by arnold Friberg. in the late 19th century, Reverend Mary Baker Eddy was asked â&#x20AC;&#x153;What are your politics?â&#x20AC;? She responded, â&#x20AC;&#x153;i have none, in reality other than to help support a righteous government: to love God supremely, and my neighbor as myself.â&#x20AC;? Princeton is a community where we care for our neighbors. So far in 2018, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been an outpouring of love and care for those 35 individuals affected by the Griggs Farm fire. We also had a multi-faith service at First Baptist Church on Green Street that not only honored Martin Luther King Jr., but brought together many faith traditions to share prayers and brotherly love to address threats to peace and prosperity in these revolutionary times. america means hope, the hope that good will conquer evil and that we will find ourselves on the side of good. Dr. Martin Luther Kingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s enduring legacy of not taking things personally is illustrated in an approach that can be useful today: â&#x20AC;&#x153;i have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.â&#x20AC;? These are a few reasons why iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll try a bended-knee approach to celebrating Presidentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Day.

NJ Vietnam Veteransâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Memorial Foundation Marks the 20th Anniversary of Its Museum

To the Editor: On behalf of everyone at the new Jersey Vietnam Veteransâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Memorial Foundation (nJVVMF), as we begin a new year, i extend best wishes to our community and to all who serve our country. as a private not-for-profit organization, the nJVVMF is fully self-sustaining. We rely on the support of our community, both financially and through participation, to meet and exceed our mission. an easy way to support our work is by checking line 61 on the nJ state tax form to make a self-designated donation. We are grateful for all levels of support as these donations cover a significant portion of our annual operating expenses. For those unfamiliar with us, the Foundation operates the new Jersey Vietnam Veteransâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Memorial and its companion Vietnam Era Museum. This unique site in Holmdel, new Jersey pays tribute to the 1,563 new Jerseyans who did not return home from the Vietnam War while placing their sacrifice in the larger context of the tumultuous Vietnam Era, a period of history that still affects new Jersey families and communities today. as executive director, i am honored to spend time with our community of veterans and visitors. Through our ceremonies, public programs, exhibitions, and class trips, we work with an incredibly diverse community that allows us to explore the complexities of the Vietnam Era in a way that is relevant to people today. This year marks the 20th anniversary of our museum and an exciting period of expansion for us through programs, resources, and a planned expansion of our public spaces. i see firsthand the impact that these offerings have on our community. This is especially apparent with the nearly 10,000 students

Residents Deserve More Information Before Voting on Board of Ed Facilities Referendum

To the Editor: The October 2 Board of Education Facilities Referendum is actually a vote on major changes to our educational system. On February 8 Superintendent Steve Cochrane, architect Prakesh nair, and educator Heidi Hayes Jacobs presented their plans for the future of our schools â&#x20AC;&#x201D; new pedagogy and open plan buildings with few interior walls that are a rebranded version of the failed open space schools of the 60s and 70s. approving the construction funding gives de facto approval to drastically changing how students will be taught. The presentation was heavy on PR and theoretical educational philosophy but lacked hard data. as a former teacher, teacher trainer, and textbook creator, i question many of their assumptions. My online research yielded many negative reviews but not one positive review of schools that have enacted this new plan. Princeton residents deserve more information before we vote on these changes. as a resident who will be asked to absorb another tax increase and more importantly, as someone who cares about education, i urge Mr. Cochrane, the School Board, local newspapers, and Princetonians to research open plan school buildings and open space schools. We need to know how this change will affect all students. We need information about successful and unsuccessful schools. if that means postponing the referendum, so be it. This radical change is consequential and deserves extensive community-wide discussion. Parents, be aware that the proposed plan is an experiment that we cannot afford to have fail. The prime losers will be your children. Taxpayers, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re being asked to pay for new construction and renovations that involve extensive structural changes, including removing walls and corridors. Failure will mean rebuilding the schools. The quality of our schools is a major attraction of raising children in Princeton. What will happen if this new scheme does not succeed?

McCarter Hosts â&#x20AC;&#x153;Relaxed Performanceâ&#x20AC;? Designed for People on Autism Spectrum

To the Editor: On Saturday, February 3, the popular childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s performer Dan Zanes brought his new sensory friendly folk opera to McCarter to the delight and enjoyment of our audience. This new production, which premiered in December at the Kennedy Center, offered a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Relaxed Performanceâ&#x20AC;? concert to an audience of more than 400 people from our community. This marks the sixth season that McCarter has offered a Relaxed Performance for people on the autism spectrum or who have sensory sensitivities and their family members. These productions feature slight adjustments to the lighting, special effects, and music which allows everyone to enjoy the magic of a live performance in a thoughtfully altered environment. Zaneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Night Train 57 is the first time McCarter has presented a Relaxed Performance specifically designed as such. We are grateful to Dan Zanes for creating a joyous, interactive performance for a family audience, many of whom have limited opportunities to enjoy a concert or performance together. McCarter, in collaboration with five other theatres in the area (Delaware Theatre Company, Montgomery Theater, Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival, Peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Light, and Theatre Horizon) is working to program more Relaxed Performances, share best practices, and develop a public calendar of these events in the region. We are grateful for the contributions of JaZams, a beloved local toy store, which provided â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;fidgetsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x201D; small toys for our audience members to quietly fidget with while watching the performance. We also acknowledge our incredible volunteer ushers who received special training for this production. Finally, we thank The Karma Foundation for their leadership support of these Relaxed Performances at McCarter; they have generously funded this program since its inception. Hundreds of our areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s families have enjoyed a performance together in the last six years through the foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dedication to the community!

John Bailey usually waits until August to hold the Joint Effor t Safe Streets Program, his annual week of community-focused activities in Princeton’s Witherspoon-Jackson neighborhood, where he grew up. But this year, the Denverbased political consultant is making two pilgrimages to his hometown. Bailey has organized a three- day festival March 15-17. The main purpose is to honor Princeton Councilman Lance Liverman, who will step down from Princeton Council after 15 years on the governing body and numerous other services to the community. The festival will also pay tribute to Women’s Histor y Month, with special recognition of depar ting Councilwoman Heather Howard. “We’ll continue the usual program in August,” Bailey said this week. “But it’s 2018. It’s a new day and I think we need to be more vigilant and awake as individuals and as a community. With Dr. [ Mar tin Luther] King’s birthday, Black History Month, and Lance retiring, it just made sense to use him as a lightning rod to bring the community together. He represents all the good things Princeton is about. And I didn’t want issues to come up in April or during the summer without acknowledging his extraordinary service.” Liverman will be honored March 15 at the First Baptist Church of Princeton,

30 Green Street, with a community reception at 5 p.m. A recognition program follows at 6:15 p.m. Testimon ials, proclamat ions, music, song, and dance are planned. The following evening at 5 p.m., a community reception and history program will be held at Studio Hillier, 190 Witherspoon Street, to present the WitherspoonJackson Community Heritage Trail plaques to Princeton’s four historic black chu rch e s. Wit h e r s p o on Jackson was designated the town’s 20th historic district in April, 2016. “It was important that we continue keeping our history,” said Shirley Satterfield, a local historian and longtime resident of the neighborhood. “So John and I came up w ith the Witherspoon-Jackson Cultural and Historical Society, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the research, preservation, understanding, appreciation, and celebration of the rich and proud histor y of African A mer icans in Pr inceton, New Jersey.” The four churches — Mt. Pisgah AME, Witherspoon Street Presbyterian, First Baptist, and Morningstar Church of God in Christ, will each be presented with a plaque. “When I do a tour or a presentation, I always let people know how important these churches have been in our community,” Satterfield said. “A lot of people don’t know that the

Morningstar Church of God in Christ, which is on Birch Avenue, has been t here since 1941. It was started by the Lee family. All of the churches except Witherspoon started in private homes.” The final event on March 17 is a “Critical Issues Update” and a Council Candidates Forum at 10 a.m. at Witherspoon Street Presby terian Church. So far, six people have announced their intention to run for the Council seats being vacated by Liverman and Howard. Alvin McGowen is the latest to declare he will run. “T here might be more candidates by March 17, and the more the merrier,” s a i d B a i l e y. “P r i n c e ton is unique. We have some very good folks and it will be interesting to hear from them.” —Anne Levin

MUSIC REVIEW

The Dryden Ensemble Presents an Afternoon Concert of Bach Cantatas

ew composers these days are required to produce musical works at the factory pace of 18th-century composer Johann Sebastian Bach, who churned out six-movement cantatas just about every week as part of his church responsibilities in Leipzig. The Baroque specialty musicians who comprise the Dryden Ensemble are no strangers to the music of Bach, and for its concert this past weekend looked to the more unknown works of the Baroque master to create an afternoon performance of vocal and instrumental music. For the Dryden CantataFest at Princeton Theological Seminary’s Miller Chapel on Sunday afternoon, a small string ensemble, two oboes, and a chamber organ were joined by four vocal soloists to present three complete cantatas of Bach, as well as selections from other Bach works, all dating from a two-year period when the composer was at his most prolific. A vocal quartet that comprised of soprano Teresa Wakim, alto Kristen DubenionSmith, tenor Jason McStoots, and baritone William Sharp carried most of the performance load, easily switching among arias, recitatives, and four-part chorales to convey texts set by Bach for specific Sundays in the liturgical year. The three principal cantatas performed, Cantatas 111, 85, and 138, were each composed for a particular occasion, with texts drawn from both the Bible and literary librettists. All four singers had extensive experience with the music of Bach’s time, and worked together well to present a well-balanced vocal palette with an informed approach to the music. The most commanding from the outset was bass William Sharp, who may have presented his most impressive singing in the last bass aria on the program, from the 1723 Cantata 138. In this aria, with words of confidence and faith, Bach seemed to set all the key verbs in the sentences with extended vocal runs, all of which were handled solidly by Sharp. Sharp showed from his first aria in the opening Cantata 111 that he could easily control the stage yet sing sensitively when necessary, with particularly expressive interpretation of the recitative texts. Tenor

McStoots also sang with a great deal of vocal color, keeping sound and diction well forward so as not to overwhelm the space at Miller Chapel, and like Sharp caressed texts well in recitative selections. Alto Dubenion-Smith was responsible for one of the most difficult vocal passages — the aria “Jesus ist einer guter Hirt (Jesus is a good shepherd)” from Cantata 85. In this aria Dubenion-Smith was accompanied on her very quickmoving vocal part by an equally as virtuosic violoncello piccolo — a five-string cello newly-invented in Bach’s time, but which did not survive the 19th century. Cellist Rebecca Humphrey accompanied Dubenion-Smith on this unusual instrument, playing cleanly and precisely, as Dubenion-Smith’s voice matched well the texture of lower strings and keyboard continuo. Soprano Wakim took a historically accurate approach to the vocal lines, singing with little or no vibrato for most of her arias. Wakim’s voice was like a vocal glaze over the rest of the quartet in chorales in which all four singers performed, but the minimal spin on the sound made it difficult to hear her at times in lower registers. When paired with Dubenion-Smith in a joyful duet from Cantata 3, the two singers were well-matched, accompanied by unison oboes. he Dryden Ensemble is more often known for instrumental performances, and Sunday’s concert emphasis on vocal works was refreshing. Oboists Jane McKinley and Julie Brye provided solid accompaniment, often in dialog with the singers, on both oboe and oboe d’amore. Throughout the concert, Webb Wiggins played consistent yet subtle continuo support from a chamber organ. The cantatas selected showcased a variety of instruments in different combinations, and although there were not many instrumental musicians in this performance, there was a wide variety of orchestral colors. The Dryden Ensemble may have presented only one composer on Sunday afternoon, but proved there was certainly no shortage of imagination in the music of Bach. —Nancy Plum

The Dryden Ensemble’s next Princeton performance will be on Sunday, March 4 at 3 p.m. in Miller Chapel. Harpsichordist Adam Pearl will perform Bach’s “Goldberg Variations.” For information visit www.drydenensemble.com.

Xiaofu Zhou in Concert With Yuan Ping

On Friday, February 23 at 8 p.m., acclaimed musicians Xiaofu Zhou and Yuan Ping will perform together at Miller Chapel on 64 Mercer Street in Princeton. Pieces performed include Schubert’s Violin Sonata in A Minor, D. 385; Dvoˇrák’s Four Romantic Pieces, Op. 75; Brahms’s Violin Sonata No. 1, Op. 78; and Kreisler’s Schön Rosmarin. Tickets are $30, $20 for students. Visit NJ23. eventbrite.com for tickets. In the years following his highly acclaimed New York City debut in Carnegie Recital Hall in 1995, Xiaofu Zhou has been giving concerts as both violinist and violist over a span of over two decades, from solo recitals, to chamber music, to concertos. He has performed as soloist with orchestras, notably The Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia in nine performances which include double violin concertos, violin and viola concertos with Arnold Steinhardt. Pianist Yuan Ping attended the Primary Music School affiliated to the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, and graduated from the Conservatory with honors in 1998. In 2001, he pursued further education at Tokyo University of the Arts in Japan where he studied with Hitoshi Kobayashi, a jury mem-

ber of the International Chopin Piano Competition, and also took his master’s degree. Yuan Ping is a prize winner in numerous international piano competitions, and he often cooperates with leading orchestras and conductors in China and abroad. He has been praised by the critics as a pianist that can “tackle the most demanding technical challenges,” and “indisputably a master pianist of a new generation.”

The concert is part of the 2017-18 season for Jazz at Princeton University, led by acclaimed saxophonist/composer Rudresh Mahanthappa. “I am thrilled to build upon what we started last year in presenting the myriad voices that make up this living art form of jazz,” says Mahanthappa. “Danilo Pérez is a gifted artist who fearlessly melds elements of jazz and world music to create something completely original, and a wonderful example of a musician who successfully integrates art and activism. Working with someone as virtuosic, creative, and sensitive as Danilo will be an invaluable experience for our students, one that I’m excited they’ll be able to share with the larger community in a public concert.”

On Valentine’s Day: Wardell Gray’s Cry, Anne Elliott’s Labor of Love

he phrase “labor of love” has been haunting me ever since I saw Anne Elliott’s drawings of her husband, Peter Gruen, who died in August. I’ve been an admirer of my former Town Topics colleague’s work for almost 15 years. Last week admiration gave way to awe. You know when you’re in the presence of what Henry James, among others, calls “the real thing.” The gallery attitude — you stop, you look, you move on, you go home, you think of other things — no longer pertains. Not this time, not when you’ve witnessed what happens when love and art become one. Now and then in my life I’ve discovered artists whose work resonated so powerfully that I had to write about it, not for myself except to satisfy my feeling for the subject, but to alert others, to make them see or read or listen. In fact that’s often the motive force behind these columns, and this week’s is no exception. I was blindsided by the playing of tenor saxophonist Wardell Gray 20 years ago, and have written about his life and his music in several publications, and more than once in these pages, usually around the second week of February. He was born in Oklahoma City a day before Valentine’s Day in 1921. He was left for dead in the desert outside Las Vegas on May 25, 1955. The Food of Love Looking for a way to bring together Wardell Gray, love, Black History Month, and Valentines Day, who better to turn to but Shakespeare, the Elizabethan equivalent of the internet. There are passages that could be read in that light all through Emerson’s essay, “Shakespeare; Or the Poet,” in which the Bard “is like some saint whose history is to be rendered into all languages, into verse and prose, into songs and pictures, and cut up into proverbs …. So it fares with the wise Shakespeare and his book of life. He wrote the airs for all our modern music: he wrote the text of modern life.” A plunge into the web of the Works takes me to Twelfth Night, first performed in February 1602, its opening words, “If music be the food of love, play on” spoken by Orsino, Duke of Illyria, a line undoubtedly smiled upon by the Duke of Ellington, who paid tribute to the Bard in his 1957 album Such Sweet Thunder and liked to tell his audiences “I love you madly.” He Rides and Reads Speaking through Orsino on “the spirit of love,” Shakespeare tells us “So full of shapes is fancy/That it alone is high fantastical.” For weeks now I’ve been listening to jazz’s high fantastical not as purveyed by the Duke, but by the Count, and never more powerfully than when Wardell Gray is soloing. Call it love, infatuation, fancy, or what you will, it’s how I feel when Wardell cuts loose over the full bore power of Basie’s big band driven by the underthe-radar heroics of guitarist Freddie Green. Gray’s most famous solo, on Neal Hefti’s “Little Pony,” has been translated into vocalese and sung at breakneck speed on the Lambert Hendricks Ross LP Sing a Song of Basie, but all the jazz in the world is no match for a passage in Emerson’s es-

say on Shakespeare I can’t resist bringing in, given how well it coincides with the metaphorical thrust of “Little Pony.” For Emerson, Shakespeare’s “means are as admirable as his ends; every subordinate invention, by which he helps himself to connect some irreconcilable opposites, is a poem too. He is not reduced to dismount and walk, because his horses are running off with him in some distant direction: he always rides.” That’s Wardell Gray with Basie: he always rides, and he also reads Shakespeare. His “copious comments” on the Bard once moved a Melody Maker interviewer to frame the conversation in terms of a “literary tea party.” The only other subject Gray enthused about in that July 31, 1954 interview was Basie. “Count’s new band is so much together. It is the band in modern music.”

the band to sign it. When the concert’s over, the first person he heads for is guitarist Freddie Green, who smiles, shakes hands, and says a few kind words, every bit the quiet, subtle, sympathetic presence suggested by his demeanor on the bandstand. Everyone, including the Count, signs the kid’s album. The lead tenor that night is Frank Foster. Closing my eyes on the scene half a century later, I imagine my teenage self approaching the player who wasn’t there but should have been. The tall thin ghost towers over me. His shadow is as long as the room is wide. Death in Las Vegas Decades before I discovered Wardell Gray, Freddie Green was my favorite member of the Basie band. He was the opposite of a virtuoso, never soloing, his labor of

The sound of Wardell Gray in full fantastical flight with Basie at the Royal Roost in 1948 has been described by Mike Zwerin in his book, Close Enough to Jazz, as “the cry,” a sound Zwerin says has never left his head (“I will go to my grave with it”), calling it “A direct audial objectification of the soul. You know it when you hear it.” It’s a cry that goes deep if you’ve listened to Gray’s music, know something of his life and loves, and know, too, that if he’d stayed with Basie, he might not have died an ugly death at the age of 34, less than a year after the Melody Maker article. A Night in May One night in late May 1955, a high school junior crashes a fraternity house event with a copy of Basie’s first Dance Session album in his hand, hoping to get

love keeping the 4/4 rhythm. It’s said that the only solo he ever took was on a song called “On the Sentimental Side.” Searching just now for the track on YouTube, all I can find is Billie Holiday’s version from 1938, a Valentine’s Day coincidence since she and Freddie were lovers off and on for years. Green went on to have “the longest job in jazz history,” staying with Basie from March 1937 until the night of March 1, 1987, when he died of a stroke after playing the first two sets of a show in Las Vegas, where his friend and bandmate Wardell Gray had played, and died, some 30 years before. Green died in his hotel room watching TV. Gray died “under mysterious circumstances” after playing a set with Benny Carter’s orchestra at the Moulin Rouge, the first mixed-race casino.

That was in late May, the same time his former Basie bandmates were signing my album. Dorothy Gray Calls In June 2003, shortly after my article in the Village Voice came out, the phone rang, my wife answered. “It’s someone called Dorothy Gray,” she said. It took about ten seconds to register. Wardell’s widow was calling me. We talked for 20 minutes and there were several other phone calls before she died later that year. She told me how they met, connecting because they both had the same birthday, February 13, on the eve of Valentine’s Day. They would have married then but someone passed along some misinformation and it was ten years before they actually tied the knot, as she put it. “We did it twice,” she said. “Two weddings. First in Chicago, then in Las Vegas.” I didn’t ask her why she wanted to be married in Las Vegas. As Hemingway would put it, it was better not to think about Las Vegas. “Sounds and Sweet Airs” Wardell Gray was doomed to fall to the lure of drugs, even though he’d cautioned others for years against using. As a reader of Shakespeare, he must have connected with certain characters. While he might have found something of himself in Hamlet, there’s a character and a passage in The Tempest that would have caught his attention. It’s when Caliban hears “Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not. /Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments/Will hum about mine ears.” If you know Wardell Gray’s story, there’s special poignance in the speech’s concluding lines: “and then, in dreaming/The clouds methought would open and show riches/Ready to drop upon me that, when I wak’d,/I cried to dream again.” Labor of Love tried to set aside my feelings for Anne Elliott’s contribution to the group show, “The Impact of Art,” but, obviously, I couldn’t let it go. Or it wouldn’t let me go. In her note for the exhibit brochure, she mentions being “totally absorbed” with her husband’s care, “too sad and distracted” to continue with her studio work. But then, “I decided to start again … during our last months together. I began drawing his face, turning once again to my art. I suppose I wanted to keep him with me always in a way. Doing the portraits was an expression of love for him.” —Stuart Mitchner Wardell Gray’s music is all over the internet and available on CD at the Princeton Public Library, along with the oral history DVD Forgotten Tenor. The photograph showing him with his wife Dorothy looking on was taken circa 1950, around the time of their marriage. “The Impact of Art” will be on view at Art Times Two, the gallery at Princeton Brain and Spine, through August of this year. The other artists represented are Karen Fitzgerald, Shellie Jacobson, Charlene Lutz, Sarah Morejohn, and Maria G Pisano. For more information visit www.arttimestwogallery.com.

CINEMA REVIEW

The Shape of Water

Monster Meets Girl in Romantic Science Fiction Fantasy

he Shape of Water is clearly a favorite in this year’s Oscar sweepstakes. The science fiction fantasy about love across species lines was nominated for 13 Academy Awards, in six major categories: Best Picture, Director, Original Screenplay, Lead Actress (Sally Hawkins), Supporting Actress (Octavia Spencer), and Supporting Actor (Richard Jenkins). Writer/director Guillermo del Toro was apparently inspired by Creature from the Black Lagoon, a classic horror film from the 50s. This variation on the theme portrays the merman as being misunderstood instead of evil. The story is set in Baltimore in 1962, and opens inside a top secret government laboratory. There, a half-fish/ half-human creature (Doug Jones) is being kept under wraps in a giant vat of gelatinous, green soup by Colonel Richard Strickland (Michael Shannon). Strickland discovered the primordial monster in the Amazon and brought it to his lab to study. Strickland mistreats the creature because he lost two fingers when he was capturing it. Marine biologist Dr.

Hoffstetler (Michael Stuhlbarg) has been ordered to study its unusual lungs. The plot thickens when two cleaning ladies Elisa (Hawkins) and Zelda (Spencer) discover the classified amphibian in its vat. Elisa is a lonely mute with not much going on in her life. To her, the merman is better than no man at all. Since they are both mutes, she is able to establish a means of communicating with the creature. Friendship turns into mutual attraction and it gradually blossoms into love. Anything can happen when you’re dealing with magical realism. Some other examples of this otherworldly genre are Black Swan, Birdman, and del Toro’s Pan’s Labyrinth. While this critic generally prefers pictures solidly grounded in reality, The Shape of Water certainly is engaging and visually captivating and is recommended for open-minded fans of the supernatural. Very Good (HHH). Rated R for violence, profanity, sexuality, and nudity. Running time: 123 minutes. Production Studios: Double Dare You Productions/Bull Productions/ TSG Entertainment. Distributor: Fox Searchlight. —Kam Williams

Tiger Men’s Lax Aims to Keep Improving, Focusing on Being Sharper in Crunch Time

ast spring, the Princeton University men’s lacrosse team showed marked progress in Matt Madalon’s first full season at the helm of the program. The Tigers went 9-6 and reached the Ivy League tournament semifinals in 2017 after going 5-8 the year before with no postseason appearance. As Madalon looks ahead to the 2018 campaign, he believes his players need to be just a little sharper to continue the team’s upward trajectory. “To take the next step, we want to play the game a little faster and think the game a little faster,” said Madalon, whose team opens the season by hosting Monmouth on

February 17. “In most of our losses last year, we were in the right spot, but just played with a little bit of hesitation. We want to make sure that these guys are prepared so when they are in the moment, they will play fast, make the right decisions, and be consistent.” Madalon will be relying on a consistent scoring punch from superstar sophomore Michael Sowers who set a program singleseason scoring record in his debut campaign with 82 points, notching 41 goals and 41 assists. “Michael will do anything it takes to be better; he is an outstanding kid,” said Madalon.

“He did such a wonderful job his freshman year; he was lucky to have Gavin McBride last year as senior. It impacted his ability to come in and be a college player and a star immediately. He has come back for year two, continuing to work. His skill level is outstanding; he has done a nice job bringing the young guys along, too.” The Tigers will feature a number of other young guys on attack: sophomore Philip Robertson (3 goals), sophomore Andrew Bowman (1 assist), junior Carter Flaig (1 goals, 2 assists), junior Emmet Cordrey (1 goals, 2 assists), and freshman Chris Brown. “We have got incredible depth down there; everyone is getting the feel of things,” said Madalon. While Princeton lost an incredible player in the midfield to graduation in the versatile Zach Currier (24 goals, 34 assists, 58 points, 130 ground balls, a team-best 21 caused turnovers and a .564 winning percentage on his 202 face-offs as a senior), Madalon believes that senior co-captains Austin Sims (27 goals, 9 assists) and Riley Thompson (18 goals, 22 as-

sists) can fill that void. “Austin was on pace to be an All American last year before he got hurt; he is a heck of a player,” said Madalon, who will also be using senior Braedon Gait (1 goal), sophomore Connor McCarthy (4 goals, 1 assist), junior Dawson MacKenzie (9 goals, 3 assists), and junior Strib Walker in the midfield. “He is a great kid and he is a great leader for us. He has got a lot of experience winning for the U.S. U19 team, so he knows what it looks like. We are going to be leaning on him in the midfield. Riley is a mini offensive coordinator on the field. He is so impressive, lax IQ wise, skill wise and understanding how to make everyone around him better.” In the defensive midfield, the Tigers boast four impressive players in senior J.P. Caputo, junior Mike Morean, sophomore Chase Williams, and sophomore Jasper Arnold. “We over supported them last year and we are going to put a little more on their plate this year,” said Madalon. Madalon is expecting good support from the defensive unit. “Nick Bauer got a ton of game experience as a freshman last year; he is playing a bit of long pole

RECORD PACE: Princeton University men’s lacrosse player Michael Sowers heads to goal in a game last year during a record-breaking freshman campaign which saw him score a program single-season record of 82 points on 41 goals and 41 assists. Star attackman Sowers will look to pick up where he left off as Princeton opens its 2018 season by hosting Monmouth on February 17. (Photo by Frank Wojciechowski) and bit of close defense,” said Madalon. “We have two newcomers, George Baughan and Andrew Song, who are going to push immediately for playing time. These are dynamic guys at the longstick midfield position; we are excited for that. Senior Danny Winschuh and sophomore Arman Medghalchi will anchor the close defense. We bring junior Aran Roberts back into the fold after a medical leave, so between him, Nick Bauer, and sophomore David Sturtz, we are really excited about those guys on the bottom of our defense.” The return of senior All-Ivy goalie Tyler Blaisdell (11.48 goals against average, .579 save percentage) is another cause of excitement for the Tigers. “Tyler brings a lot of personality to our locker room. I push him really, really hard,” said Madalon, who is also looking at former Hun star and sophomore Jon Levine along with freshman

Ben Churchill and Erik Peters between the pipes. “He did a great job of changing his style last year as a junior and really buying into our goaltending theory. He is doing a nice job, he continues to grow.” Senior tri-captain Sam Bonafede, sophomore Ralph Chrappa, sophomore Philip Thompson and freshman Jack-Henry Vara will be sharing the face-off job. “We are bringing Sam back. He has the most experience,” said Madalon. “We have four different face-off guys with four different skill sets. We will be able to roll out different weapons at different times as we see fit.” Princeton will need to show some skill and grit in order to overcome Monmouth on Saturday. “It is going to be a tough opener for us. They are team that brings back a lot of experience, and they are well coached,” said Madalon, noting that the Hawks won the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) crown last year on the way to the NCAA tournament. “In these early season games, for our staff, it is a lot more about us than anyone else. We want to make sure that we play Princeton lacrosse. If we play Princeton lacrosse, we think we can be successful. With the short preseason in the Ivy League, we are just making sure that we are buttoned up with polices, procedures, protocols, systems and just getting guys on the right page, playing our speed.” —Bill Alden

Gabrielle Rush relishes her role as a key substitute for the Princeton University women’s basketball team. “I think of myself as the spark off the bench, whether things are going bad or not or if we are losing or winning,” said Rush. “Coming in off the bench, I have had a chance to watch for a few minutes, which I think is a real advantage. I can see how they are playing on defense and how they might be guarding me. On offense, I see what I need to do that is not being done or what I continue to be doing that is being done.” Last Friday against visiting Harvard, Rush got it done, hitting two straight threepointers in the waning moments of the first quarter as Princeton jumped out to a 17-7 lead on the way to an 80-47 rout of the Crimson. “It is always nice to get hot early; I think Abby [Meyers] had two back-to-back right after that too,” said Rush, who ended up with a careerhigh 19 points on 6-of-9 shooting, including 4-of-6 from three-point range. “Once someone can open up the basket, ever yone is feeling more confident.

Thankfully that was me tonight but other nights, it is other people. It was good to get that going in the first quarter though because we didn’t let them back in it after that point.” Chipping in six rebounds along with an assist and a steal in the win over the Crimson, Rush is showing a more diversified game this season. “My shot was not so good the first half of the season; during that time when I was in a very long slump I was trying to work on on my defense and getting more confident on that end,” said Rush. “Once you are hitting shots they come out and close harder so it is much easier to drive so I think the shooting helps me. Once I start making shots, everything seems to fall into place.” P r i nce ton h e ad coach Courtney Banghart liked the way her players took carer of business defensively against Harvard. “This team is so fun to coach, I thought defensively we were really solid, we forced them into Plan B all the time,” said Banghart. “I thought against Yale (a

GIFT OF GAB: Princeton University women’s basketball player Gabrielle Rush puts up a shot in recent action. Last Friday, junior guard Rush scored a career-high 19 points to help Princeton defeat Harvard 80-47.

73-59 loss on February 2) we were a little slow after the break on 50/50 balls and defensive accountability. I thought we were excellent there tonight.” The Tigers were also excellent on offense, hitting 28of-64 shots (43.8 percent) with 18 assisted buckets. “We shared the ball really well; they are really selfless and they are learning to move the ball better, which is great,” said Banghart, whose team lit it up a night later, rolling to an 82-63 win over Dartmouth as it improved to 16-4 overall and 6-1 Ivy League. “We had 39 bench points so obviously we are getting a lot from the bench.” Banghart credited Rush with giving Princeton a lift off the bench at both ends of the court. “I know Rush to be a great shooter but she is more than a shooter with the way she competes and how much she has improved overall defensively over time,” said Banghart. “She had six rebounds and a lot of times she was in the right spot defensively. When you are a shooter and you can find gaps with the dribble, it opens it up for everybody else. When things weren’t going well for her, I think she looked around and thought I have got to do other things. She has a really competitive spirit and that fits me well.” Princeton has gotten another good player back in the fold as junior Qalea Ismail recently returned to action after being sidelined last season by a knee injury. “That kid was in the training room everyday, including Sundays, for a year and a half,” said Banghart of Ismail, who tallied eight points in the win over Harvard. “It is such a lonely injury while the team continues to evolve. She brings us such a different dynamic on both ends. She is long, tall, fast, and quick, and she can shoot it. She is a full go.” With Princeton slated to host Penn on February 13 in a battle for first place, Banghart believes that some home cooking can get her squad in a rhythm. “It is a chance for these guys to play in front of their home fans and they are huge games,” said Banghart, whose team hits the road later this week for games at Cornell on February 16 and at Columbia on February 17. “It is nice. You go through the ebbs and flows. We had no games for three weeks and then we have two games. This is like we are in game mode now and hopefully for a while.” Rush, for her part, believes the Tigers are getting in a good flow. “Three games in five days is a lot and after dropping one to Yale and being in a fight for first place, it definitely feels good to beat Harvard at home,” said Rush. “It is always good to get a win against them and since they were just in first place, now we reclaimed that.” —Bill Alden

Featuring Depth, Speed All Over the Field, PU Women’s Lacrosse Shooting for Final 4 With Olivia Hompe triggering the attack and Ellie DeGarmo anchoring the defense, the Princeton University women’s lacrosse team has been a dominant force in the Ivy League over the last four years. The Tigers won or shared the Ivy crown every season over that span with attacker Hompe ending up as the program’s all-time scoring leader with 282 points and a two -time All-American and netminder DeGarmo emerging as a two-time AllAmerican and the national goalie of the year in 2016. W hile Hompe and De Garmo graduated last June, their influence is being felt as Princeton’s retuning players look to build on their legacy. “The juniors have been to the NCAA tournament every year and getting so close, especially last year, is motivating for everybody to work really hard,” said Princeton head coach Chris Sailer, who guided the Tigers to a 15-4 record and the NCAA quarterfinals in 2017. “The upperclassmen have done a great job of bringing the freshmen along. They are doing awesome too. It is definitely a motivated group.” With Princeton playing at Temple (1-0) on February 17 in its season opener, Sailer is confident that her attack group will be formidable. “We have a lot kids who scored goals but Olivia obviously was such a force in all sorts of different ways on the field so we are definitely going to need more people to produce,” said Sailer. “We have talented kids returning. Tess D’Orsi (38 goals and 13 assists in 2017 as a freshman) was a big scorer for us last year. Colby Chanenchuk (14 goals, 38 assists as a junior) was a big feeder. You have Allie Rogers (13 goals, 10 assists as a sophomore) who is really quick footed and incredibly dynamic in terms of lateral movement and her ability to get in and get good dodges. We have a freshman, Kyla Sears, who is a major threat on offense for us. She is a great finisher and has incredible hands. She is going to be a big part of the offensive unit along with Julia Haney (5 goals, 2 assists as a sophomore), who has been doing a great job.” The Tigers boast some great threats in the midfield. “The midfield is our most experienced unit; we have Ellie McNulty (23 goals, 8 assists as a junior) back; she is a phenomenal competitor and is doing a great job on the draw,” said Sailer. “We have Elizabeth George (27 goals, 9 assists as a sophomore) another draw kid for us and a powerful dodger. She makes things happen on the field. Cammie Sullivan (11 goals, 3 assists as a junior) is one of

our senior captains. She is a great two-way player. She is an awesome defender and showing offense. Kathryn Hallett (22 goals, 9 assists as a sophomore) is incredibly speedy and is looking to play an even bigger role this year. Those four are really experienced.” In addition to those four, sophomore Annie Cory (9 goals, 2 assists), junior Izzy Mangan, and freshman Jordan Marcus will round out the midfield unit. At goalie, the trio of senior Mary Kate McDonough, sophomore Winnie Brandfield-Harvey, and freshman Sam Fish are vying for the starting spot, “We have three of them and they are doing pretty well, we are still evaluating,” said Sailer. “The good news is that they are all pretty good. They all have their strengths and areas that they can continue to work on. With Ellie for the last three years she played every game; it may be a different situation when we determine a starter. I would imagine that you would see some other goalie get time as well during the season.” The defense will be be spearheaded by juniors Alex Argo and Nonie Andersen. “Our two returning defenders, Alex and Nonie, are going to be the anchors of that group,” said Sailer. “Argo is just so tough and Nonie with her speed and conditioning.” The defensive group will feature a number of young faces. “We are bringing two freshman defenders into that starting mix,” added Sailer. “We have Olivia Pugh who has a good stick and is really smart defensively. She

can get interceptions and is a great stick checker. Mary Murphy has done a great job, she has the inside nod for the other starting spot. She is athletic, smart and has been working really hard learning the systems. Those four, at this point, will be our starting defense. We have Maddie Staczek, a sophomore, who will be a good option in that defensive end. Marge Donovan is another freshman defender who is going to be working for some time.” In Sailer’s view, the keys to success for the Tigers center on how the team fills the void left by DeGarmo and Hompe. “The goalies need to make saves and be efficient on the clears; that is a point of emphasis for us with a new person in that position,” said Sailer. “T hen on of fens e, we need to be developing more of those scorers with kids ready and eager to have the ball when it is crunch time. It is how well we all play together as a team. I think our speed is going be good, especially through the defense and the midfield.” Princeton will be looking to get off to fast start against Temple, who topped Rutgers 12-8 in its season opener last Saturday. “They have been a strong team in their conference the last three years; they tend to be pretty tough and competitive kids so I think it should be be an exciting first game for us,” said Sailer of the Owls, who have Princeton High standout Julia Ryan on their roster. “We need to be doing what we do well at a good level and adjusting to whatever we see from Temple. People are throwing all sort of different defenses at people these days.” —Bill Alden

Falck Relishes Final Baker Rink Homestand As PU Women’s Hockey Battles Top 10 Foes

For Kiersten Falck, getting honored on her Senior Night last Saturday as the Princeton University women’s hockey team hosted St. Lawrence was a bit surreal. “I remember our seniors, when it was their senior night and I was a freshman, just how exciting it was for them and how excited we were for them,” said senior captain and star forward Falck, a 5’5 native of Ham Lake, Minn. “Now, in the blink of an eye, I am sharing the same spot three years later.” Coming off a thrilling 2-0 win over top-ranked and defending national champion Clarkson on Fr iday, the Tigers found themselves in another exciting contest against the No. 8 Saints. Princeton rallied from deficits of 1-0 and 2-1 only to lose 3-2 in overtime. “St. Lawrence is a completely different team than Clarkson. It is definitely tough; they are quick,” said Falck who assisted on Princeton’s first goal in the loss to the Saints. “We put in a lot more emotion today; a little bit more poise would have been awesome. You get what you get. Senior Day is always tough because sometimes there is a little bit too much emotion.” While some tears flowed after the loss to St. Lawrence, Falck believed that t h e w i n ov e r C l a r k s o n showed Princeton how good it can be. “After the win over Clarkson last night, it felt like everyone was together,” said Falck. “Everyone came to out to play; it felt like one of our best efforts. It is certainly a positive coming out with two points, especially against the No 1 team. We broke their 15-game win streak. Everyone has a sense that

we can do this; we can play with any team that we really want to.” With Pr inceton hav ing gone 7-3-1 in its last 11 games to move to 11-124 overall and 8-9-1 ECAC Hockey, Falck believes the squad is headed in the right direction. “We definitely picked it up after Christmas. I am not sure what it was,” said Falck, who now has 18 points on three goals and 15 assists this season. “People make the argument that we have a younger team and they needed a little push, a little oomph, and a little time. I think the time was good for us so hopefully we are moving on to do better. I think that is what everyone wants. We have got our last weekend of the regular season and then on to playoffs.” P r i nce ton h e ad coach Cara Morey will be sad to see Falck and the team’s other senior, backup goalie Alysia DaSilva, move on. “Falck is a leader on and off the ice; she brings so much passion and energy,” said Morey of Falck, who has 60 points in her career with 13 goals and 47 assists. “She is a difficult kid to play against and it is just sheer speed and grit. Sils has been there every time we have needed her. Any time her number is called, she has stepped up and performed. It is a really tough role to be a goalie that is competing for ice time and being a really supportive teammate to her other goalie partners. She has had to deal with adversity and she did a really good job with it.” The Tigers dealt with adversity well against St. Lawrence as Keiko DeClerck notched a goal to make it a 1-1 game early in the second period and then Claire

Thompson fired in a onetimer on a power play to knot the contest at 2-2 with 2:27 remaining in regulation. “We did rally twice. I am very proud of the girls because they don’t give up,” said Morey. “They keep going and they keep fighting so that was huge.” DaSilva got the start between the pipes and made some huge stops as she recorded 30 saves. “Sils played ver y, ver y well,” said Morey. “You can’t really blame her for those goals. She did what she needed to do.” In Morey’s view, Princeton is in a very good place with ECACH quarterfinals around the corner. “We are playing some of our best hockey right now so we just have to know that we can play with anybody,” said Morey. “ T h i s w e e ke n d r e a l l y proved that, which is the most important thing. I think that we are probably one of the most feared teams coming into the playoffs. We are going to have to go on the road and I am pretty sure that there is nobody in the ECAC that wants to face the Tigers right now.” Falck, for her part, has relished the winding road she has taken over her college career. “Princeton was somewhere where I wanted to put in my hard work that I done previously and keep pushing and challenging myself,” said Falck. “I can’t say enough good things about it. It is about the accomplishments and things you come out with. Right now I am writing a thesis and it sucks during it, but I can post pictures after I finish showing that I wrote a book.” —Bill Alden

PU Sports Roundup PU Men’s Hoops Has 0-3 Week

After the Princeton Universit y men’s basketball team fell to Penn 82- 65 last week, Mitch Henderson was hoping that a trip to New England would help get his squad back on the right track. “ We have Myle s [ Ste phens ], Amir [ Bell ], and Devin [Cannady] who have been through some really big games on the road,” said Princeton head coach Henderson after the February 6 setback as he looked ahead to games at Har vard on February 9 and Dartmouth a day later. “Sometimes when you go on the road, things come together a little more; your focus tends to get a little more laser-like, so I am hopeful that will come and be true for us.” Unfortunately, things did not come together for the Tigers as they fell 66-51 at Harvard and then lost 72-56 to Dartmouth in dropping to 11-12 overall and 3-5 Ivy League. With the Tigers now in fifth place in the league standings, they will need to display renewed focus as they play at Columbia on February 16 and at Cornell on February 17 to come up with wins and get back into the top 4 and in position to make the Ivy postseason tournament.

place from February 16-18. “We are hosting the NESCACs at Williams this year, so that is exciting,” said Deardorff. “A lot of people will come and cheer; I think that the energy will be really good.” Deardorff is excited by the progress she has made over her college career. “My mental approach to the sport in general was my biggest improvement,” said Deardorff. “In high school, I had successes and I really enjoyed the sport, but my approach was probably more immature. If I had a bad race, it would bother me a lot. College taught me you can be doing really poorly and you can be lacking confidence but things will turn out OK.” Noting that the team is split into three groups — sprints, middle distance, and long distance — for training, Deardorff has gained confidence in her conditioning. “We are doing two doubles per week and we also do lift,” said Deardorff. “It is extremely specialized and I think that is probably the most beneficial part of college swimming.” Competing mainly in the 200 fly along with the 200 and 400 IM this winter, Deardorff is feeling hale and hearty. “Individually I think things are going pretty well,” said Deardorff. “My training is good and, knock on wood, I am healthy.” Looking ahead to the postseason as Williams shoots for its fifth straight NES CAC title and another NCAA run, Deardorff knows that the Ephs can’t get ahead of themselves. “What we really try to emphasize right now as we are going into NESCACs and championship season is not to focus on nationals,” said Deardorff. “It is definitely something that stresses a lot of people out. You need to focus on t he moment ; somet h ing our coach always says is be where your feet are, don’t look too far ahead and don’t think about what you did yesterday.”

Excelling for Williams Women’s Swimming, PHS Grad Deardorff Primed for Postseason

MAKING WAVES: Madeleine Deardorff displays her breaststroke form in action for the Williams College women’s swim team. Former Princeton High standout Deardorff is enjoying a fine sophomore campaign for the Ephs, who are hosting the New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) championships this weekend. Williams has won four straight NESCAC titles and took second at the NCAA Division III championships last winter. (Photo Provided by Williams College Sports Information) In reflecting on her Williams exper ience, Deardorff has enjoyed making the most out of every moment, in and out of the water. “My biggest thing was that Division III really does give you the opportunity to embrace challenges academically and with swimm i n g,” s a i d D e a r d or f f, who is planning to major in political science. “I am really, really glad that I chose to do D-III and Williams is the perfect thing for me.” —Bill Alden

Showing MCT Experience With Overtime Goal, Goldberg Helps PHS Boys’ Hockey Make Semis Keith Goldberg has fond memories of helping Hun School boys’ hockey team win its fourth straight Mercer County Tournament title last winter. “I was able to play in the championship game,” said Goldberg. “That was a big deal.” Transferring to Princeton High for the 2017-18 school year, junior forward Goldberg enjoyed a big moment for his new team in this year’s MCT as the Little Tigers faced Robbinsville in a quarterfinal contest last Wednesday. With the teams knotted at 3-3 in overtime, Goldberg swooped up the ice on a breakaway and fired the puck into the back of the net for the game-winning goal. “I just saw the puck pop out on the wall and I started skating up; Aidan Trainer and I were going up twoon-two and all of a sudden I look up and the other defenseman fell down,” said Goldberg, recalling the winning tally. “I just pulled it to the right, protected the puck, and went past him. I saw the entire left side of the net wide open.” With PHS trailing 1-0 after the first period and 2-0 early in the second period, Goldberg acknowledged that it took a while for the Little Tigers to get going against the Ravens. “I just don’t think we were ready in the first,” said Goldberg. “We came out in the second and we knew what we had to do. I think by the end of the third period, we kept them to maybe two or three shots.” By virtue of the win, PHS was slated to face thirdseeded Notre Dame in the

semis on February 13 with the victor advancing to the title game on February 16 at the Mercer County Skating Center. In Goldberg’s view, rallying for the win over Robbinsville should teach PHS a valuable lesson. “This game can help us a little bit, I think this shows us we can’t come in cocky,” said Goldberg. “We have to come in working hard every game; we can’t take a shift off.” For G oldb erg, com ing across town to PHS has been a positive experience. “I was friends with everyone at PHS; I played with some of the guys,” said Goldberg. “At Hun, I didn’t play as much. I was on the third line.” After sitting out the first 30 days of the season as a transfer under NJSIA A rules, Goldberg has been making a big impact for the Little Tigers. “I was ready to be with the boys,” said Goldberg. “Usually I am with Aidan; he is a really good player with good vision, good hands, and a good shot. I can always feed him the puck and he feeds me the puck. We score a lot.” PH S h e a d c o ach T i m Chase wasn’t surprised to see Goldberg score the winning goal against Robbinsville. “That was a great play,” said Chase. “He brings a lot of fire and energy. He is a big guy and he plays with a lot of emotion. We need more of that.” The Little Tigers didn’t show enough emotion in the early stages against the Ravens. “It is hard to play a team

three or four times and beat them every time and get up for it, but that is no excuse,” said Chase. “They played well in the first period and our guys didn’t. I think about halfway through the game, we turned it on. Our nemesis is our defensive end; we had sloppy turnovers and a shorthanded goal. We have actually been pretty good on the penalty killing, but for some reason today we were chasing all over the place, and you can’t do that on a penalty kill.” In Chase’s view, PHS could benefit from the close call. “It should wake them up to see that every game counts and every period counts,” said Chase. “You can’t take a period off.” Having split two regular season meetings with Notre Dame, losing 4-3 on January 10 and then winning 3-2 on February 2, the Little Tigers, now 15-7-2, can’t afford any lapses in round three against the Irish. “They have a good goalie, so we are going to have to do what we did here a little better and crash the net,” said Chase. “You can’t take it lightly on defense. One mistake and the puck could be in the back of our net. We have just got to sharpen up. Even if you are dominating the play, you still got to make sure that you take care of our zone.” Goldberg, for his part, is looking for PHS to be sharper at the offensive end. “We have to work hard and get a lot of shots,” said Goldberg. “In the past two games with them, we have dominated in shots, but then we only have three goals. I am going to tell the team we have to finish the quality shots.” —Bill Alden

YOU’RE NOT THE AVERAGE PERSON.

Producing Another Dramatic Late Rally, PHS Boys’ Track Wins 3rd Straight Sectional Last year, the Princeton High boys’ track team trailed 41-22 late in the Central Group 4 indoor sectional meet but rallied to win the title. As PHS competed in this year’s sectional last Saturday at Bennett Center in Toms River, it found itself in a similar predicament as it trailed 44-27 heading into the 3,200 and 4x400 relay. “We got down because WW/P-South laid down some good performances in the mile (taking first and third) and really over performed there,” said PHS boys’ head coach Ben Samara who got a second place finish from senior stalwart Will Hare in the 1,600-meter run with junior star Acasio Pinheiro taking sixth. “That is when things started looking dicey for us.” Although things may have looked bleak, Samara was confident his athletes could mount another rally. “We knew based on the last two years that we are never out of it,” said Samara. “Anything can happen, and those guys even have that attitude now, so we knew that the two-mile was going to be the start of the comeback and we just tried to work our way back into things.” With Pinheiro and Hare going one-two in the 3,200 and the 4x400 relay taking third, PHS worked its way back into a 51-51 tie with WW/P-South, earning its third straight sectional crown. The performance of Pinheiro and Hare in the 3,200 showed that PHS wasn’t going to go down without a fight. “Acasio is an incredibly talented runner and he came off that mile and put in a really good time in the twomile,” said Samara of Pinheiro, who clocked a time of 9:08.05 with Hare just behind in 9:08.87. “Will fought so hard in

that mile and very similar to last year with Alex Roth, who was just nipped in the mile and came back with a great performance in the two-mile. He is the heart of our team and he showed that again.” Senior throwing star Paul Brennan showed his talent, winning the shot put with a heave of 55’8. “As much as we rely on Paul, it is nice to be able say that he over performed even what we expected of him, with a personal best in such a big meet, and really dominated the competition in the way that he did,” said Samara. “It says a lot about what he is going to do moving forward.” While Simon Schenk fell short of his school record of 15’0 in the pole vault, his best jump of 14’6 was good enough for second in the sectional. “He had a little bit of an off day, but if an off day for him is 14’6, I think he is going to be OK,” said Samara. “The coolest thing is that you have two of the three best vaulters in the state in the same section. They are going see each other next week in the Group meet and at the Meet of Champions. It is going to be a lot of fun.” It was a lot of fun for Samara to see his 4x400 relay come through as it took third and earned the six points PHS needed to pull out a tie. “We looked at those guys and we just said do it; you are going to do it because you have to do it, and that is the bottom line,” said Samara, noting that the quartet of junior Nils Wildberg, junior Jackson McCarthy, junior Jack Whetstone, and sophomore Matt Perello was seeded eighth. “They went out there, laid down the most impressive clutch performance I have seen since I started at PHS. It was incredible to see their dedication, determination, and heart that they showed. It just embodies everything we have been about for the

last few years.” That dedication and determination has helped keep PHS in the winner’s circle. “At that point, we were happy to share the title, having been where we were and coming back from being down for a third year in row,” said Samara. “To say we got a three-peat sectional title is something really, really special.” Achieving that feat led to a raucous celebration on the track. “As much as they laid their emotions out in the race, they laid their emotions out after the race,” said Samara. “Every team had their eyes on them because our guys were just screaming, laughing, hugging each other like we had just won the lottery. It was amazing.” Noting that PHS has benefitted from some good fortune in its title run, Samara knows that you have to be in it to win it. “We have had some luck along the way, but every time one of our guys mentions the luck that we have, I tell them to be in a position to win three years in a row the way we have says something about our team,” said Samara. “They say you make your own luck.” As PHS heads into the state Group 4 meet this weekend, it will need some luck to came away with a state crown with powerhouse East Orange looming in the competition. “They are real talented in the sprints and we are real talented in the distance and the shot, and pole vault so our events don’t overlap at all,” said Samara. “Neither of us can stop each cypher from getting our points. It is just who gets more points. We will have to see; we may just go after some top individual titles or we may go after the team title. It will be a tall order.” —Bill Alden

Jalynn Spaulding went scoreless in the first quarter as the Stuart Country Day School basketball team hosted Newark Academy in the state Prep B semifinals last Sunday, but she played a key role as the Tartans built a 15-8 lead. W hile Spauldingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shot was off, she displayed an all- cour t game, crashing the boards and setting up teammates with some deft passing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have really good teammates so when that happens, they pick up the slack up for me,â&#x20AC;? said Spaulding. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I am not scoring, I try to rebound and feed them. I really love to get my teammates involved.â&#x20AC;? As the game unfolded, Spaulding got involved in the scoring, ending up with 13 points as the second-seeded Tartans pulled away to a 6729 victory over third-seeded Newark and will now host fourth-seeded Academy of St. Elizabeth in the Prep B title game on February 14. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Throughout the game,

coach [Justin Leith] gave us the mindset that is 0-0 every quarter so the score didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter,â&#x20AC;? said Spaulding, who also contributed 10 rebounds and seven assists in the win. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was go out and play hard.â&#x20AC;? For Spaulding, making it to the Prep B title game in her final campaign with Stuart is special. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it is pretty big,â&#x20AC;? said Spaulding. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a good accomplish ment for t he school and for us as a team. I am just happy that we are getting there.â&#x20AC;? The teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chemistry has played a big role in its success. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just feel that we bond really well together and we really mesh well,â&#x20AC;? said Spaulding. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel like when one of us is off, the other ones pick up the slack.â&#x20AC;? With Stuar t bringing a 15-7 record into the title game, Spaulding believes the Tartans are getting better and better. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As every game goes on, we are playing more as a team so it is working out for

us,â&#x20AC;? said Spaulding. Stuart head coach Justin Leith liked the team defense displayed by the Tartans in the win over Newark. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The whole emphasis was defense, defense, defense; it is a cliche at this point, but that is what it is all about,â&#x20AC;? said Leith. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is focusing on defense; if we start making baskets early that is fine.â&#x20AC;? Stuartâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stifling pressure broke down the Minutemen in the second quarter as the Tartans outscored them 20-7 on the way to building a 35-15 halftime lead. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our press starts to wear on teams; they can break it one or two times, but we match up and figure out what they are trying to do to beat us,â&#x20AC;? said Leith. At t h e of fe n s ive e n d, Stuart showed superb balance as freshman Nia Melvin scored a game-high 21

points with junior star BeyShana Clark chipping in 16 and sophomore guard Jasmine Hansford adding nine in addition to the 13 contributed by Spaulding. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This team shares the basketball extremely well; there is not a selfish person on the team,â&#x20AC;? said Leith. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is so fun to coach. Some teams that you coach, you have to address something like that, but they love each other and love playing with each other. It is great.â&#x20AC;? While it is great for the Tartans to make the Prep B final, Leith wants his team to close the deal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was one of our goals but it is not to just get there but to win it,â&#x20AC;? said Leith. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are one step away from doing that and hopefully we will.â&#x20AC;? Spaulding has stepped up her game as a senior. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jalynn is fantastic; she is a great kid,â&#x20AC;? said Leith. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She is a different player this year by the way she rebounds. Last year she wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really

get in there. Her go-to now when she is frustrated is to rebound, which is the best thing that you can ask from someone. She rebounds, she is moving the ball, she is scoring. She has always done that so it is great to have.â&#x20AC;? Hansford has been giving Stuart another good scoring option in the backcourt. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jasmine has been shooting the ball so much better,â&#x20AC;? said Leith. â&#x20AC;&#x153;S he has b e en pre t t y consistent. In our last 10 games, she has been close to 10 points or above every game.â&#x20AC;? In Leithâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s view, his squad has been raising the level of its game down the stretch. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The goal is to peak around now; they showed today that they are getting there,â&#x20AC;? said Leith. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We certainly need to work on boxing out. There are small things that we need to tweak so we are not playing our best yet but we are drawing close.â&#x20AC;?

Leith believes his team is poised to peak in the title game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it is refreshing to play someone you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t played a couple of times, to not know anything about them and just go in there,â&#x20AC;? said Leith, whose squad will also be competing in the Mercer County Tournament where it is seeded seventh and will host 10thseeded Princeton High in an opening round contest on February 15. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is really good for the girls, they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what to expect so it is just basketball.â&#x20AC;? Spaulding, for her part, is looking for the Tartans to keep playing good basketball. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are going to have to play as a team and do the same thing that we did today,â&#x20AC;? said Spaulding. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have to go in with the mindset that it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter what the score is, we have to work hard the whole game.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Bill Alden

With Aubry Looking to End on a High Note, Hun Boys’ Hockey Advances to MCT Semis

Nick Aubry and his teammates on the Hun School boys’ hockey team were pumped up as they faced Pennington in the Mercer County Tournament quarterfinals last Wednesday. “All of the guys came out fired up,” said Hun senior forward Aubry. “The music was blasting, we had a great time.” Aubry assisted on the second goal as top-seeded and four-time defending champion Hun jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first period over eighth-seeded Pennington. “I just had it in the corner, I tossed it up to our defense,” said Aubr y, recalling his feed to Brendan Mrotchek. “He got it in front, it was a bang-bang goal.” The goals kept coming for Hun as it pulled away to a 9-0 victory to take the first

step in its quest for a fifth straight county crown. The Raiders were slated to face fifth-seeded Paul VI in the MCT semis on February 13 with the victor advancing to the title game on February 16 at the Mercer County Skating Center. “We got a lot of the younger guys out to play and it was a great experience,” said Aubry, who picked up another assist later in the contest. Aubry, who has been with the Hun hockey program all four years, moving up to the varsity as a junior, is looking to end his high school career on a high note. “This is my second year on varsity,” said Aubry. “It was a so-so year for me. I am looking forward to having a good MCT and scoring some goals.” Hun head coach Ian

McNally sensed that his players were looking forward to another MCT run. “On the bus ride here today they were singing Taylor Swift songs,” said McNally. “They were warming up as if it was the first game of the season, yelling and screaming. It is a very positive energy. When we come to this, they are happy to play in it. Everyone really enjoys this tournament.” M c N a l l y e nj o y e d s e e ing Aubry have a big game against Pennington. “Nick has got offensive abilities; this is a year where it has been able to come through a little more,” said McNally. “He is getting ice time, he is getting top six linemates. I fully expect this is a tournament where he will put up a couple of points every game.” While the Raiders expect to be playing for another title, McNally knows accomplishing that won’t be easy. “Usually the semis and finals are against Notre Dame and Princeton High,” added McNally, whose team improved to 11-8-2 with a 6-4 win over St. Augustine last Monday in a regular season contest. “Those have been very good games. I think the final every year the last four years has been either a one or two goal game. That is the game where everybody gets to watch and their buddies come. They get to feel like that is the big last game of the season.” Aubry, for his part, is hoping that the Raiders save their best for last. “It will be a great, strong finish,” said Aubry. “It has been a .500 year, but this will cap it off and make it great.” —Bill Alden

Senior Washington Enjoys Last Home Weekend, Starring as Hun Boys’ Hoops Makes MAPL Semis Tyler Washington started his final home weekend for the Hun School boys’ basketball team with a bang. With sixth-seeded Hun trailing third-seeded Mercersburg Academy (Pa.) 7069 in the waning seconds of overtime last Friday evening in the opening round of the Mid-Atlantic Prep League (MAPL) tournament, senior guard Washington drained a three-pointer at the buzzer to give the Raiders a 72-70 victory. “It was crazy, it is not something you can recreate,” said senior guard Washington, who was mobbed in a corner of Shipley Pavilion by student fans after his dramatic bucket. “It is something that happens; you have to live in that moment. It was a great way to win. I felt like we deserved it. We lost to them earlier in the year by a good amount. We came out and we played really well.” A night later, things didn’t go so well for Hun as it fell 74-43 to second-seeded Hill School (Pa.) in the semis to drop to 4-17 on the season. “Even though we had 24 hours to rest and recover, it was still tough to come against a well-coached Hill team,” said Washington. “It was also hard because they didn’t miss tonight. In the second half, we cut into the lead a little bit but they didn’t miss.” Washington made a lot of shots in the evening, tallying 18 points, including eight in the fourth quarter. “This may be my last game here, so I wanted to go out on a good note and try to play as hard as possible,” said Washing ton, a 6’3, 180-pound native of Harlem, N.Y. While Hun didn’t achieve its goal of w in ning t he MAPL tourney, Washington enjoyed getting one last chance to perform in the friendly confines of Shipley Pavilion. “It was great to be at home, with the fan support and everybody coming out and hoping we could win a championship,” said Washington. “Unfortunately, we lost to Hill, but it was a good run.” Now, Washington is hoping Hun can have a good run as it competes in the state Prep A tourney where it is seeded fifth and slated to play at fourth-seeded Peddie on February 13 in a quarterfinal contest with the victor advancing to the semifinals in February 19. “Peddie hit a lot of threes against us the last time, so that is something we have to fix.” said Washington, in assessing the rematch with the Falcons, who defeated Hun 93-78 in their regular season meeting on January

24. “We just have to play hard. Our highest level of play was when we played against Westtown and only lost by eight (84-76 on December 2) and they were in the national rankings. We played a great game; we need to bottle that energy up and try to figure out how to do that again.” As a two-time captain of the team, Washington has worked hard to be a great teammate. “Being captain has been tough; it is a leadership role that I took on last year too,

so it wasn’t new to me,” said Washington, who is being recruited by Division I college hoops programs. “It taught me a lot about myself and my teammates. It is just trying to move forward to college where I hope I will have the experience again.” No matter where Washington ends up, he will always cherish his Hun experience. “Hun is a great place, it is one of a kind,” said Washington. “There are great people and it is a great program. I have had my ups and downs here, but the Mercersburg game was one of my favorite moments.” —Bill Alden

FINAL SHOT: Hun School boys’ basketball player Tyler Washington puts up a shot in a game earlier this season. Last Friday, senior star Washington hit a three-pointer at the buzzer to give sixth-seeded Hun a 72-70 overtime win against third-seeded Mercersburg Academy (Pa.) in the opening round of the MidAtlantic Prep League (MAPL) tournament. A day later, Washington tallied 18 points as the Raiders fell 74-43 to secondseeded Hill School (Pa.) in the semis. Hun, which dropped to 4-17 with the setback, will be competing in the state Prep A tourney where it is seeded fifth and slated to play at fourthseeded Peddie on February 13 in a quarterfinal contest with the victor advancing to the semifinals in February 19.

John Raymond Conover Jr.

John R. “Sonny” Conover Jr., 81, died on February 12 at the University Medical Center of Princeton at Plainsboro. Sonny lived on the 42acre family farm in a 200year old farmhouse for most of his life. As a youngster he lived with his siblings and parents, John R. Conover, Sr. and Helen Csaranko Conover, enjoying the outdoors and open space. As a young man he worked with his Uncle Paul Csaranko, who was a roofer, and joined the Roofers Union in Perth Amboy (now #4 in Newark). After a number of years, he formed his own business with his co-worker Joe, C&S Roofing, and worked until his early 60s when they sold the business after which he worked as a consultant for the next 10 years. He then retired and devoted his fulltime attention to the family farm, maintaining the property and pursuing his hobby of restoring tractors. He would express on many occasions that he could not be away from his home for

any length of time for he would miss the sky, air, the stars, and the openness of his childhood home. He was a neighbor to several boyhood friends, Bobby and Ray, who spent their retirement years supporting the local community (i.e., volunteering at The Ten Mile Run Cemetery). Sonny was married to Mar y Ann O’Keefe Conover who predeceased him in 2013. He will be greatly missed by his loving companion, Eleanor Yurish. Surviving Sonny are his two children, Catherine Conover and Robert Conover (Marisol); and his grandchildren Justin ( Tr ish ), A manda, Emily, and Hailey. He will be deeply missed by his younger brother, Eugene Paul Conover (Cheryl); and younger sisters Mary Ann Conover Jensen ( Peter) and Barbara Jean Conover Gross; his nieces and nephews, Melissa Porcelli (Joey), Amy Pascal (Joe), Matthew, Elizabeth, and Paul Jensen, and Christopher Gross; and great nieces and nephew, Olivia, Sasha, and Jordan. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made in Sonny’s memor y to The Ten Mile Run Cemeter y Association, 40 Old Coppermine Road, Princeton, NJ, 08540. A memorial visitation will be on Friday, February 16, 2018 from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. at M.J. Murphy Funeral Home, 616 Ridge Road at New Road Monmouth Junction, NJ 08852.

SUPERIOR HANDYMAN SERVICES:

WHAT IS PMI? The spring buying season is around the corner, and if you're shopping around, you've probably heard a lot about private mortgage insurance (or PMI) - and you may be wondering what it is. The answer, fortunately, is simple: PMI is a type of insurance that's required if your down payment is less than 20 percent of the home's price. It's intended to provide some protection to the mortgage company in case you wind up defaulting on your mortgage and your home goes into foreclosure. How much will your insurance cost? It varies based on the amount of your down payment and your credit score. Most insurance ranges from about 0.3 percent to 1.5 percent of your original mortgage, payable each year. The good news is, you can drop PMI once your remaining mortgage balance equals 80 percent. In fact, your lender is required to automatically drop PMI once the balance reaches 78 percent of your original mortgage amount. The exception: FHA loans where insurance is required; for these loans, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll pay the insurance for the life of the mortgage - it cannot be canceled once your balance drops below 80 percent of your

homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s value. Something to remember when shopping for your next home loan.
