Rescuing horses ‘It’s our
time’
By SEAN LAJOIEThe Sun
After losing the district title toMarlton for the second year in arow, receiving the second place in-vitation to the state tournamentonce again was a bitter pill toswallow for Rich O’Brien’s Med-ford Renegades.
It was an honor nonetheless tobe invited to play in a tournamentagainst the best teams in thestate, and the Renegades hadgreat success doing so.
However when they foundthemselves coming up short in
the state finals both years, it wasonce again to their long-time ri-vals.
It began to get into the heads of the kids every time they took thefield against the team in red, re-gardless of how much successthey were having to that point,that it was sure to come crashingdown.

“Marlton is a great team, andthere is a lot of mutual respect foreach other, but we always seemedto make some crucial mistakeswhen we played them,” O’Briensaid.
A successful regular seasonculminated in the team finishingwith a record of 27-8, but whenthe 10U Cal Ripken District Tour-
nament schedule came out, theteam saw that it would be openingup against Marlton.
“I was really surprised to hearfrom the team that they werehappy we were playing them first.They were up for the challengeand ready to get the monkey off their backs,” O’Brien said.
In the first game of districts,Medford beat Marlton 13-4, thefirst time defeating this teamsince the boys were 8 years old.
However the resilient bunchfrom Marlton worked their waythrough the losers bracket andwas able to get another shot
against Medford for the thirdyear in a row in the district final.
After two years of finishingrunner up, Medford beat Marltonin a barnburner by a score of 6-5to win the 10U Cal Ripken District5 Title in Southampton.
Great pitching by Max Kauferand Jackson Logar, awesome de-fensive play by Brett Balzan,Manny Roach and Dean Bialous,
and Oskar Heino's timely walk-off double to win the final game werethe major highlights that led tothe team finally breaking throughagainst their rivals.
“When we finally beat Marltonin the district tournament theboys were elated and they reallystarted to believe in themselves,which gave them a lot of confi-dence going into the state tourna-ment,”
After winning the district tour-nament, the team went on to the10U Cal Ripken State Tourna-ment in Hamilton.
In the opening game of the
state tournament, the team facedthe District 2 champions, BrickAmerican.
Nick O'Brien led the wayagainst Brick America in the 13-0Renegade victory. O'Brien pitcheda complete game shut out andwent 3-3 with five RBIs, includinga three-run home run to put thegame out of reach.

few more weeks. That’s all
that we have left of summer.
Technically, there are about
six weeks left, but in the lives of us
New Jersey residents, Labor Day –
when most schools go back in session
for the 2015-2016 year – marks the end
to our summer.
No more beach. No more pool. No
more fun – OK, maybe that’s a bit dra-
matic.
But it’s not all doom and gloom with
summer gone. In fact, there’s plenty to
be excited about, and we’ve been hard
at work covering this excitement al-
ready.
Our senior associate editor, Mike
Monostra, loves this time of year.
That’s because the end of August
means the start of one of his pas-
sions – covering sports. Mike has been
on the summer sports camp trail for a
week or so now, and he will continue to
be out and about on local fields as our
high school teams continue to prepare
for the upcoming season.
Soon, you’ll see some of the photos
Mike and our other editors have taken
at these camps. Soon, you’ll begin read-
ing more about the teams, players and
coaches who are involved in the games
they love. And soon, on Sept. 9 to be
exact, you’ll be receiving The Sun’s
High School Fall Sports Preview guide.
Our fall sports preview special sec-
tion is a stand-alone piece previewing
each high school fall sport, with full
schedules for the entire season and fea-
ture stories as well.
Mike is reaching out to every high
school coach and athletic director for
the fall season for the section. But
we’re calling on parents, coaches and
even players to participate as well.
Sports will be a major focus of up-
coming issues of The Sun, as you’ll
soon see. And not just high school var-
sity sports. We want to cover the JV
and freshman teams, as well as all the
community sports teams.
But we can’t do it all by ourselves.
We need the help of the extended com-
munity. Have a story idea, a score, a
picture? Send it over.
If we can’t send an editor out to do a
full-length story and photoshoot, we’ll
make sure your team, sport, league or
club is still covered.
Our doors are always open – as are
our phone lines and inboxes. Let’s
make this fall sports season one to re-
member!

Writer: No good way outof nuclear deal with IranAs more details about the nuclear deal
with Iran continue to trickle in, it is becom-ing alarmingly clear that we have beenboxed in, with no attractive ways out.
The outcome will be the same, whetherCongress goes along, or doesn't.
Our negotiating partners, China, Russia,Germany, France and the UK, have allgiven the agreement the green light. Alongwith our government, they have gone be-fore the UN to request the lifting of all
sanctions on Iran, including the sanctionson ballistic missiles and all non-nuclearweaponry.
Politics is like a game of chess, whoevercan anticipate the final move will win. Wehave only the president, the state depart-
ment, and their advisors to blame for the
final outcome of our negotiations withIran. Obviously, they didn't see this coming.An interesting question is whether
strategically, diplomatically, short term orlong term will we be better off being out-side of the deal, or inside. In other words,should Congress approve the deal, or not.
If we decide to be outside, could we po-tentially sanction companies (Russian,Chinese, European) who do business withIran? I think not.
We will be isolating ourselves from therest of the world, which could be very dam-aging to us economically.
Recently, two prominent Democrats,Chuck Schumer and Eliot Engle, declaredtheir intention not to support the Iran deal.Did they do that thinking that the deal willpass in Congress without their support, ordo they really want Congress to nullify it? I
believe it is the former.
Others that are still contemplating a "no"vote are Democrats Robert Menendez andTed Deutch.
As bad news about the deal dominate theheadlines, it could potentially hurt Democ-rats in the upcoming elections. Many De-mocrats, traditionally ones who are loyal tothe president, may feel compelled to flip tosave their congressional seat.
We could be seeing an avalanche of "no"votes.
What is interesting is that as Hillary isstill processing the Keystone XL pipelinedeal after seven years, it only took her a
couple of days, without even having readthe final wording of the deal, to endorse it.She may now be too late to realize that sup-porting the agreement with Iran mightcost her the general election. We shall see.

By SEAN LAJOIEThe Sun
Earlier this month, the YMCA’sCamp Ockanickon in Medford ex-perienced a scare with the lakethat it uses for campers to swimin.
The Camp Ockanickon Face-book page issued a statement onAug. 5 that members of the camp
community had been experienc-ing flu-like symptoms, and thatthey have been in continual con-tact with the Burlington CountyDepartment of Health and wouldbe closing the lake as a precau-tion.
This lake is used by three of the YMCA camps in the area:Camp Ockanickon, Camp Matol-lionequay and Lake Stockwell.
“On Monday, Aug. 3, we hadseveral people call and say thatthey were experiencing vomiting
after swimming in our lake onSaturday, Aug. 1. Even thoughthere was a stomach bug goingaround town, we closed the lakeand contacted the health depart-ment as a precaution,” CEO of the camp Mark Dibble said.
A common concern when itcomes to lake contamination thistime of year is a disease calledFecal coliform.
Fecal coliform bacteria are the
most common microbiologicalcontaminants of natural waters.
It lives in the digestive tracks of warm-blooded animals, includingbirds, and is excreted in the feces.
Although most of these bacte-ria are not harmful and are partof the normal digestive system,some are pathogenic to humans.Those that are pathogenic cancause diseases such as gastroen-
teritis, ear infections, typhoid,dysentery, hepatitis A andcholera when campers acciden-tally swallow the water.
However the camp has been ontop of the testing of the watersince well before this incident. Ithad already been testing thewater weekly and can confirmthat the sickness that was goingaround had nothing to do withthe water that the campers werein.
“We test every week for col-iform bacteria. A risky level is 200
ppm. The test that we did after weclosed the lake came back at 10

ppm. This was obviously a greatresult, and we reopened the lake.We have them tested every week,and we’ve never had a bad resultthis summer,” Dibble said.
In total, there were fewer than25 kids who ended up getting sickout of more than 900 total
campers.The lake was only closed for a48-hour period, and the effect it
left on the camp was minimalother than generating a five-fig-ure bill for a company to come inand disinfect over the weekend.
However Dibble indicated thatthe customers’ piece of mind waswell worth the money.
The lake was officially re-opened two weeks ago, and thingshave been going swimminglysince then.
Last summer the camp had asimilar scare when a number of
children fell ill from stomachbugs.“This year the number of peo-
ple who fell ill was significantlyfewer,” Dibble said. “We probablyoverreacted by closing the lakebut we felt an abundance of pre-caution was warranted. “
The camp is appreciative of how well the community handledthe minor setback.
“People have handled it verywell. Our customers have all beenvery supportive. It’s not unusualfor the lakes in Medford to closewhen the bacteria tests come
back high, so for our local cus-tomers this was par for thecourse,” Dibble said.

The Renegades then went on tobeat the district 3 champions, EggHarbor Township, by a score of 12-6, led by Jackson Logar'sstrong pitching effort and greatdefensive play by Brett Balzan atcatcher. Oskar Heino, BrettBalzan, Max Kaufer, Nick O'Brienand Manny Roach all had a multi-hit game in the win against EggHarbor Township.
The team then faced Washing-ton Township, and in a greatpitching dual won 2-0. MaxKaufer went five strong inningswith five strike outs to earn thewin, and Nick O'Brien came inthe game in the bottom of thesixth inning to get the save.
The state final was a rematchagainst Washington Township inwhich Washington Township
jumped out to an early 2-0 lead inthe top of the first inning, butMedford came right back in the
bottom of the first inning withtimely hitting by Oskar Heino,Nick O'Brien and Dylan Ter-williger to go up 4-2. JacksonLogar started the game andpitched three solid innings withfour strikeouts. Nick O'Brienpitched the last three innings andrecorded five strikeouts, includ-ing a strikeout to end the game inthe sixth inning with two outsand a man on third base.
The 5-4 win over WashingtonTownship earned the team the10U Cal Ripken southern NewJersey State title.
“Our mottos throughout thedistrict, state and regional tour-naments were ‘it's our time’ and‘no one has worked harder.’ We
just kept reminding the boys tokeep it simple and focus on onepitch at a time, one inning at atime and one game at a time,”O’Brien said.
After winning the southernNew Jersey State title, the team
went on to the 10U Cal RipkenMid-Atlantic Regional tourna-ment in Warrington, Pa., whichincluded the 10U Cal Ripken Statetitle winners from New Jersey,
New York, Pennsylvania, Mary-land and Delaware.
“The boys have dreamed aboutmaking the regional tournamentand representing Medford andSouthern New Jersey in thattournament for more than twoyears, and although we knew wewere improving, you never knowfor sure how the team will per-form in crunch time,” O’Briensaid.
The Medford Renegades fin-ished 3-1 after pool play with winsagainst northern New Jersey(Bridgewater-Raritan), westernNew York (Lou Gehrig/Buffalo)and southeastern PA (Warring-ton) and a loss to the eventualMid-Atlantic Regional winnerMaryland (Upper MontgomeryAthletic Club).
“We had a feeling we would becompetitive in the regional tour-nament because southern NewJersey has historically performedwell in regional play, but I had no
idea we would finish in the topfour teams of the Mid-AtlanticRegion,” O’Brien said.
Earning the second seed afterpool play, Medford went on to winits quarterfinal game againstBrandywine Youth Club in extrainnings, but unfortunately lost in
the semi-final game againstSouthwest Pennsylvania.The team performed well with
outstanding pitching efforts byMax Kaufer, Jackson Logar, NickO'Brien and Brett Balzan. O'Brien(.588 batting average), Kaufer(.579), Balzan (.375), Manny Roach(.333) and Liam Kennealy (.333)led the way offensively and strongdefensive play by Manny Roach,Dean Bialous, Oskar Heino,Dylan Terwilliger, James Moriar-ty, and Andrew Cobb kept the
team in every game.Though it was sobering to fi-
nally see the magical seasoncome to an end, coach O’Brienhuddled his team up one last time
and took a step back from beingin the moment to tell them howproud he was of them.
“To finish in the top four teamsin New Jersey, New York, Penn-sylvania, Maryland and Delawareis a pretty nice achievement. Theboys worked really hard all sea-son, they came together as a teamand they deserve all the successthey have accomplished,”O’Brien said.
Now that the team has finallyhad some down time, it has had achance to look back and reflect onthe summer and a season that itwill never forget.
The players and coaches attrib-uted a lot of their success to thesupport they received from thecommunity and from the families
of the team members.“It was a tremendous experi-
ence for the players and thecoaches. We had great team chem-istry this year and our fan sup-port was unbelievable. We hadmoms, dads, sisters, brothers,grandparents, aunts, uncles,cousins and friends of the teamtraveling to all of our games, sothe entire experience was some-thing that we will all cherish for avery long time,” O’Brien said.
From a baseball standpoint,the coaches spent a lot of time inthe offseason focusing on the de-fensive side of the game.
This team had always beenstrong with the bats so the coach-es figured if they could solidifythe defensive end and get hot atthe right time they could make arun like this.
They also held a team meetingback in April in which the coach-es had the players write downtheir goals for the year to help the
team focus and visualize what itwanted to achieve this year.
Little did they know, many of these goals would come true, andthe team would have a season fullof great memories.
“We had finally achieved whatwe were working so hard for allthese years. I had a blast this sea-son!” right fielder Andrew Cobbsaid. “We always had a great timeat all the hotels we stayed at andthat helped us become better
friends. I'm very proud of myteam for everything weachieved.”
“The experience was very ex-citing to travel all around for thetournaments this year, and Ithink it was a privilege to make itto that level of competition. Ifound joy in contributing to theteam's success,” center fielderManny Roach said.
O’Brien plans to coach theteam again next year in their 11Useason. A season that will surely
be approached by the boys with arenewed sense of confidence aftertheir sensational run and finallybreaking through against Marl-ton.
