It is hard to believe the 2024 football season has come to an end with the finals of Group 2 and Group 4 Championships which were held at Rutgers this past Wednesday.

Phillipsburg was the first Big Central Conference team to advance to an Overall Group Championship game in the league’s short history.

When I began the BCC Camp Caravan Tour on August 12, my goal was to be sure I saw all 59 teams over the last two years, whether it was at a preseason practice, scrimmage or game. Mission accomplished!

This year I was able to see in person 48 of the 59 teams in the aforementioned scenarios and 2 others in a 7 vs 7 Passing Tournament.

I am also grateful to Joe Bellamy of Bellamy & Sons Paving, Carleigh Stillwagon of Elite Custom Apparel and Bob Trivosonno of Metro Team Sports for helping me honor 59 players from the BCC as members of the 2024 Borden’s Ballers Football Team.

A BIG THANK YOU TO MIKE PAVLICHKO & THE CREW AT CJSR!

Happy Holidays to all the Coaches, Players, Team Managers and your families!
