No. 7 Spotswood girls keep winning, entertain Woodbridge as Barrons seek to find footing

When it comes to wins and losses, the Spotswood and Woodbridge girls’ basketball teams are at opposite ends of the spectrum in the New Year.

The Chargers are 7-2, 4-0 in the GMC White Division – their first year up after winning back-to-back Blue titles – and have won 19 straight divisional games going back to a late 2023 loss to Highland Park.

Woodbridge is having an off year after losing several key players to graduation, just 1-6 so far.

But on a micro level, with the Barrons picking up their first win of the season against Perth Amboy last Thursday, they’ve split their first two games of calendar year 2025. And head coach Bobby Timinsky thinks they’ve begun to see the corner, if not turn it.

And he hopes it makes a big turn Tuesday night, when Woodbridge visits No. 7 Spotswood for a White Division tilt you can hear right here on Central Jersey Sports Radio. Mike Pavlichko will call all the action, with pregame at 6:15, and tip-off at 6:30. Click here to listen.

Spotswood, on the other hand, has senior Lizzie Calandruccio, who’s poised to become the second all-time leading girls’ scorer in school history by the time her career is all said and done. She’s fourth now, with 1,135 points, averaging 13.2 a game, and should end up only behind Beth Dickinson, the only 2,000-point scorer ever at Spotswood, boys’ or girls’.

And then there’s Gabrielle Hill, a sophomore leading the team with 16.7 points a game, part of an up-and-coming sophomore group that also includes fellow starter Cat Caro, who leads the Chargers in assists with 22.

But Woodbridge has some players, too. Junior Angel Smith is one Timinski has built around. She’s leading in scoring at 17.7 a game, and also leads the Barrons with 6.7 rebounds per game.

It was 2013, and brothers Bobby and Mark Timinski – standout high school basketball players in their day – had a mattress and furniture business, with a warehouse in Edison. And they had a lot of extra space.

Basketball junkies their whole lives – Bobby played at St. Joe’s and Colonia while Mark played scholastically in Florida before playing for the Gators in College – they decided to open a training facility with the leftover space.

And the rest, as they say, is history.

Basketball players can work in small groups as seen here, or individually, at Basketball Warehouse in Edison.

Bobby says they noticed while there were a slew of travel and AAU teams around, there were few places to work on the fundamentals of the game.

Basketball Warehouse welcomes basketball players ranging from age 8 through those already in college, and hosts summer camps, as well as individual and group sessions, where players can work at their own pace.

Mike Pavlichko got a chance to talk with Bobby Timinski about the origins of Basketball Warehouse, and why it’s the ideal place to go for anyone looking to up their game on the court, at any level.
