12 the sports report GO MINUTEMEN! The winter sports season at Newark Academy provided many highlights to reflect upon. BASKETBALL The boys basketball team, led by the two newest members of the 1,000 point club, guards Mike Cutri and Ryan Keur, (who scored his 1,000th point against West Milford HS on February 23) played in the state tournament as the #2 seed in the North Non-Public ‘B’ section. The team has also won their third Colonial Hills, Hills Division championship in a row, an unprecedented achievement by our boys basketball program. Mike Cutri was chosen 1st team, Hills Division along with Joe Greenaway, and Ryan Keur was named to the second team. The girls basketball team finished its season with a 10-13 record. The 10 wins reflect the first double-digit victory total for the Lady Minutemen in the last four years. The season was highlighted by victories over conference foes Glen Ridge, Mountain Lakes and arch-rival MKA. Sophomore Maya Hayes was chosen first team All Hills Division and senior Alexa Gruber garnered second team status. WRESTLING Tom Jasterzbski and John Sternlicht each won Essex County wrestling championships in their respective weight classes for the second year in a row! Both boys went on to win District 14 championships and John qualified for the State championships. At States, John finished with a 4-2 record, landing him in 7th place. This is the second highest finish by a Newark Academy wrestler in school history (Jerome Greco finished 5th in 2004)! John finished with school records for most wins in a season (44), most pins in a season (34), most career wins (140) and most career pins (111). John’s 111 career pins also ranks him in 2nd place in New Jersey state history, an unbelievable individual achievement! FENCING The girls fencing epee squad, led by Ziann Lee, Ari Groveman and frosh Nyasia Jones won the Prep State Championship held at Princeton Day School on February 20. Overall, both the boys and girls teams finished third in the Preps. Zane Grodman, captain and one of the leading foil fencers in the state, achieved his 100th victory in his match against Randolph on February 26. This is very significant since it signals that Zane has won more than 80 percent of his career matches, a remarkable achievement. Zane was recognized for his achievements by being named 1st team All-State for the second year in a row. SWIMMING The boys and girls swim teams have completed their seasons with 6-3 and 5-4 records, respectively. The girls 400-yard freestyle team of Jacqueline Scala, Meghan Henshall, Grace McDonough and Ali Swanson set a school record in this event at the Prep Championships. Their time was 4:02.58.

NA ATHLETIC TEAMS HAVE A NEW LOOK! Various graphic images have appeared on NA team uniforms throughout the years (from the ad lumen to clip art) but there has never been one image that defined the NA Minuteman for the athletics department. This year, NA teams will have a fresh, unified look when the athletic mascot design (above) is incorporated onto team uniforms, sports programs, banners, and athletic equipment.
