Beacon bulldozes Marlboro, sets up rematch in Section 9 final

BEACON – Coming into the Section 9 Class B football semifinals, Beacon understood what it needed to do in order to come out on top. The Bulldogs needed to completely stunt a dangerous Marlboro rushing attack led by Shawn DeLaigle, and the hope was that everything else would fall into place after that. The chips fell favorably for Beacon. Now, all that's left is to go chase a championship plaque. Hosting the Dukes in semifinal action, the Bulldogs defense completely smothered Marlboro in the mist all night en route to a commanding 34-0 victory on Friday night, November 6. "Every defensive person on the field did their job," senior offensive and defensive lineman Jay Adams said after the game. "From the defensive lineman to the linebackers, safeties and cornerbacks. We all did our job." Equaling the efforts of the front seven on defense, Beacon's (9-1) usually potent offensive unit showed its big play potential early and often in this one. Elijah Epps broke free on a 33-yard run to the far left sideline to open up scoring with his first of two first half touchdowns just before JahReal Whitted rushed from 44 yards out to put the Bulldogs up multiple

25 Famous New Yorkers You Didn’t Know Graduated From Harvard University

Harvard University sits in Cambridge, Massachusetts, hundreds of miles from the streets of New York City and the towns and villages of New York State. Yet there is a remarkable New York story within its alumni history. Students who grew up in Brooklyn apartments, on Long Island, in the Bronx, beside the Hudson River, and in Upstate cities traveled to Harvard and later became presidents, scientists, writers, actors, judges, and business leaders. Some are so strongly identified with New York that their college years in Massachusetts are easy to overlook.

A NYC assistant principal got a $50,000 raise to $192,374 to lead a proposed AI high school, then the city scrapped it and he kept the salary

A New York City assistant principal is still collecting a nearly $200,000 salary for a high school that never opened, as reported by the New York Post . Caleb Haraguchi-Combs was tapped to lead a proposed artificial intelligence and computer technology high school in FiDi, which came with a significant pay bump, but the project was scrapped. Haraguchi-Combs, 33, saw his annual salary jump by $50,000 to $192,374 when he was promoted to “project director” in January, a role that typically transitions into the principal of a new school. He previously served as an assistant principal at Manhattan Center for Science and Mathematics in East Harlem, where he made $141,960 a year. A school official said Haraguchi-Combs is no longer at that school. The proposed Next Generation Technology High School never got the green light. Schools Chancellor Kamar Samuels reportedly killed the proposal in April amid backlash over its merit-based admissions model and concerns about artificial intelligence in schools. Haraguchi-Combs has reportedly continued to collect his principal-level pay. Nobody seems to agree on what his job is now Reporters approached Haraguchi-Combs outside his home, where he declined to say where he currently works. He reportedly responded, “You came to my

Phillipsburg football rocks East Orange to reach fifth straight final

This article was updated with more information. EAST ORANGE – The Phillipsburg High School football team used some razzle and dazzle but mostly stuck to its go-to formula — power running and stout defense — in a 31-13 win over East Orange in the NJSIAA North 2 Group 5 semifinals at Paul Robeson Stadium on Saturday, Nov. 7. The third-seeded Stateliners will host next week’s sectional final Friday night against No. 4-seeded Passaic Tech, which upset top-seeded Elizabeth 35-0 in the other semifinal. Phillipsburg (8-2) seeks its third consecutive title and is playing in its fifth straight sectional final. The Liners got there behind three Shane Moore touchdown runs of 6, 1 and 38 yards as P’burg opened a 21-6 lead at halftime. “Just overall, a great effort for our guys,” Phillipsburg coach Frank Duffy said. “I said run the football, make the quarterback uncomfortable and be great in special teams. Do something special. We did that. That was the recipe for success today.” Old Bridge football forces 5 turnovers, shuts out Williamstown 35-0 Football playoff roundup for Big Central Conference, local Central NJ Duffy said it was important to establish the run game early and to take East Orange

Powerhouse LA high school football coach mired in controversy fires back at peeved parents: ‘I will not apologize’

The California high school football coach mired in controversy over potential recruiting violations said bluntly this week he has no intentions of apologizing for the way he’s running his program. Just after Westlake head coach Rick Clausen was called out by several of his own players’ parents in a scathing letter to the school, the 44-year-old told the California Post on Thursday he’s not fretting about the complaints one bit. Westlake head coach Rick Clausen instructs the offense during football practice at Westlake High School, Tuesday, Aug. 11, 2026. USA TODAY Network via Reuters Connect “It’s comical, to be honest with you,” Clausen said. “But with what goes on in today’s society, nothing shocks me in any way, shape or form.” Clausen took over a floundering Westlake program in 2025 and immediately turned the team around, going 10-1 in his first year and 7-3 so far in Year Two. The team was 0-10 in 2024.
