Gloucester City HS Football suffers 1st Loss

UPDATE SEPT. 17:

EDITOR'S NOTE: We received one inquiry about the response time of the

ClearysNoteBook files

Gloucester City ambulance, and a second inquiry about the type of injuries the players suffered. 

 

We spoke with a Gloucester City Police Officer who was at the game. He told us that the Gloucester City ambulance most likely was on another call, however, both the Bellmawr and Westville ambulance responded to the call. He said before those ambulances arrived a GCFD truck came and firefighters treated the injuries.

As for the injuries, he said four GHS players had to be taken to the hospital. Two were in the first quarter. The first player had a concussion and they evaluated him for a while before deciding to call for an ambulance. The other player also had a concussion. The third and fourth players injured were transported by the Gloucester City ambulance; one broke his hand and the last one suffered what they thought may have been internal injuries but was later determined to be bruising in the abdominal area.

The police officer said that GHS has three athletic trainers and an orthopedic surgeon from Rothman on the sideline at every game so these players are always in good hands.

JEER—For three years if not longer the windows and siding on the Gloucester City Municipal building, Broadway, and Monmouth Street have been in need of paint and repair. Mayor and council are supposed to set the example for residents to follow. Instill in each one of us a sense of community pride.  Is it too much to ask of the council to maintain this historic building? We don’t think so. Recently three municipal employees were seen laying commemorative bricks at Proprietor's Park; instead give them a brush and put them to work painting this property. The poor condition of the municipal building was made public by CNBNews in 2013 and again in 2014. Why the delay to repair it? What possible excuse could our city government have for allowing this structure to deteriorate?

After a 1-2-3 tenth inning by Masterson, RCGC came to bat in a tied game in the bottom of tenth for the Roadrunners. with no outs a double by Matt Woods (Eastern HS) off the top of the centerfield  fence with a runner on first put  runners on 2nd and 3rd.

Tyler Mondile pitches no-hitter for No. 5 Gloucester Cath. in 7-0 win over Pennsville

BROOKLAWN N.J. APRIL 6, 2016)With the 2016 stage sure to be bright, Mondile’s opening act Wednesday afternoon did not disappoint, as he fired a no-hitter in Gloucester Catholic’s 7-0 victory over Tri-County Conference opponent Pennsville.

At least 15 MLB scouts attended to watch Mondile strike out 10 with two walks on about 75 pitches. His velocity sat between 90-92 mph, with his first and last pitches of the game topping out at 93. Mondile is ranked No. 72 in the Baseball America High School Top 100 for the Class of 2016.

“I did rear back for that last one,” said Mondile. “I wanted to finish the game the right way. I was getting ahead with my fastball then going to my (curveball and change-up) and having them a little off-balance.”

“(The no-hitter) kind of crept up on us,” first-year Gloucester Catholic coach Adam Tussey said. “I knew he was throwing the ball well and not a lot of guys had been on base. But that’s not something surprising with Tyler. He comes out and throws strikes and three pitches were working for him today. When he has that going on, he’s going to be pretty tough to hit.”

For now, the plan is to keep Mondile throwing every fifth day and let him build up his pitch count. Once the Rams return from their senior trip, Tussey said they would be able to have Mondile on track to pitch each Saturday as they build for a potential faceoff against No. 1 overall prospect Jason Groome and Barnegat on May 16 at Campbell’s Field.

BROOKLAWN N.J. April 1, 2016 (CNBNewsnet)--Gloucester Catholic Head Coach Adam Tussey (photo left) notched his 1st win as the new coach by beating Kingsway High School  7 - 1 in the Rams home opener. Tussey who took over for Mike Rucci who departed for Rowan University was left a team needing to fill seven spots. The 2015 team loaded with future college players took not only seven fielding positions but Tussey needed to replace four pitchers.

Tussey looking to continue the Rams past success without any interruption is looking at team leaders for help. With returning pitchers Tyler Mondile (Florida State signee) and Eric Grafton (Mercer County College) will be  providing leadership and stability on the mound or in the dugout.

Against Kingsway Tussey called on 6' 7" lefty Grafton. From the 1st pitch, Grafton showed the dominance which was expected from Coach Tussey.

The young Rams provided Grafton all the runs he needed in the second when the home team plated two runs. Over the next couple innings the Rams opened up a 5 - 1 lead before closing out the 7 - 1 victory.
