Allendale, N.J…. The Bergen County Jamboree played at Northern Highlands H.S. were entertaining and at times suspenseful, but in the end Ramsey, Teaneck, Pascack Hills and Ramapo will move on!

                                                                                     RAMSEY  44     ST. MARY’S  36

Carroll(pictured with grandfather,Charlie) finished with 21 points and 6 rebounds and went 11-16 from the free throw line! St. Mary’s lost a couple key players during the contest as Senior Naseer Walker left early in the 1st with back spasms and Sophomore Marc Dadika was lost in the 4th with a shoulder injury!

Senior Evan Schumer hit a 30 foot “triple” at the buzzer to lift Pascack Hills to a 47-46 win over Old Tappan! Pasacack Hills led most of the game but Old Tappan had a never say die attitude and seemed to have pulled off the mini comeback as Junior Justin Minaya hit two free throws , then hit what looked like the game winner on a short runner! That’s when Schumer stole the spotlight as he took a pass from Junior Kevin Michael and knocked down the 30 footer! Schumer(right) finished with 21 points to lead the way for Hills! Minaya led Old Tappan with 16 points and Junior Kevin Eifert added 13!

The final score was not indicative of how hard Dwight-Englewood competed with the Jamboree’s #1 seed! Ramapo grinded their way to a 44-32 win as Senior Ryan Curtiss led the scoring with 17 and Senior Matt Latka made big shots late on his way to 15 points! Dwight-Englewood cut the lead to 3 in the fourth, but a late Ramapo run closed the deal! Freshman Jordan McKoy led Dwight-Englewood with 11 points!
