SHORE CONFERENCE WEEKLY AWARDS
COACH OF THE WEEK
VICKI GILLEN– Toms River North- She has put together one of the best coaching jobs we have seen in recent years. Losing her star point guard and still not missing a beat. TRN won the WOBM and did it in grand style. She has her team in the Top Ten and mostly likely the Top 20 this week.
PLAYER OF THE WEEK
ASHLEY TUTZAUER-Jr- Tom River North- She had an electrifying preformance in the WOBM. Her 32 point explosion in the final was nothing short of show stopping. Right now she is as good as anyone shooting the rock. Tutzauer has stepped up big this year AGAIN. Last week she was at her best!
FRESHMAN OF THE WEEK
KAYLA RICHARDSON- Middletown South- This was just a matter of time. She is the most versatile freshman in the state. Her impact on Middletown South cannot be understated. She was sensation in Florida this past weekend. her 12 point, 7 rebound, 3 assists and 2 steals in game two, of South’s FLA trip was just a peek into the future. My guess is that she will win more of these awards than any other freshman.
TEAM OF THE WEEK-
TOMS RIVER NORTH- There is no question that TRN north is the real deal. Not only are they 7-0 entering the New Year, they have a WOBM title under their belt. Amanda Johnson has been sensational. She averaged double figures in the final 3 games of the WOBM. Jenna Paul and Ashley Tutzauer have set the standard in Ocean.
1. MANASQUAN– The clear favorite.
2. RUMSON FAIR HEAVEN– Nobody has two better wins.
3. ST. JOHN VIANNEY– Again the gold standard for playing real games.
4. ST ROSE– Lost may help down the road. They will need to stay Sharpe until next real challenge.
5. RED BANK CATHOLIC– Hayley Moore could be just what they need with Montange out.
6. MIDDLETOWN SOUTH– Will need to be competitive Thursday.
7. TOM RIVER NORTH– Waiting on a Top 20 phone call
8. NEPTUNE- Injuries ..but divisional play helps until they get healthy again
9. POINT. BORO– Hughes and Lassen are not done
10. RED BANK REGIONAL– James Young and crew believe it’s there year.
