Blue Devils Flip the Script and Finish on Top of Raiders in Sectional Semifinals

Going into the fifth round of penalty kicks, Westfield was leading 4-3. When the Scotch Plains-Fanwood player shot the ball, it was do-or-die; if he made it, the pressure would shift back to Westfield, but if he missed it, his season would end. Westfield junior goalkeeper Dominik Kotowicz waited for the shot and read it perfectly, falling on top of the ball. No goal. Westfield survives penalty kicks and secures a semifinal victory to advance to the state finals.

Madison blanks Pompton Lakes for second straight field hockey title

POMPTON LAKES − Madison needed less than 60 minutes to accomplish what 19 other teams failed to do over Pompton Lakes' first 23 games of the season. Fueled by two first-half goals from sophomore Summer Graziano and a dominant defense performance, the Dodgers shut out Pompton Lakes, 4-0 in the North, Group 1 final on Nov. 11 at Lakeside Middle School, repeating as sectional champions and securing the 18th sectional crown in program history. The result was even more impressive considering Pompton Lakes (19-3-2) had allowed just four goals all season entering the championship match. Madison (18-6) matched that total in a single afternoon while becoming just the third team to shut out the Cardinals this fall. “It was so important for us to get those early goals. It’s a big win for us, especially coming back from the hard loss in the [Morris] county final,” Graziano said. “It’s big for our team and our seniors who really want to go all the way. Now we get to continue to play in the states, which is a lot of fun.” Graziano put Madison in front with 4:45 remaining in the first quarter, then struck again just over four minutes into

Ex-Raritan councilman says mall developer owes him $414K | Exclusive

RARITAN BOROUGH – A former borough councilman and former chairman of the Somerset County Republican Party is suing the developer of the Raritan Mall, alleging he is owed $414,000 in consulting fees. Al Gaburo Jr., who served on the Borough Council from 1996 to 1999 and as county GOP chairman from 2010 to 2020, filed the lawsuit Nov. 5 in Somerset County Superior Court against Raritan Mall LLC, Raritan Urban Renewal LLC and Leonid "Lenny" Dimentman. The lawsuit alleges Gaburo and his now-dissolved company, Patriot Development & Consulting Group LLC, are owed the money for consulting services connected with the controversial redevelopment of the mall at Route 206 and Orlando Drive. According to the lawsuit, Gaburo was to receive "$1,500 per door" in four installments tied to borough approvals, the start of construction and issuance of the final certificate of occupancy. The borough has approved 276 apartments, including 42 affordable units . The project received preliminary Planning Board approval in March on a 6-2 vote, followed by formal approval in July. The affordable units will help the borough meet its goal of zoning for 99 affordable housing units by 2035. Developer disputes allegations in Raritan Mall lawsuit "We dispute the
