The Big East Conference’s national clout was hurt by the defection of Miami in 2004. The last conference team to make the College World Series was Louisville in 2007. After: Rutgers could emerge as the class of the conference. You find the best baseball either down South or out West. The power conferences are the ACC, Pac-10 and SEC.

  • Chief's Report
    CHIEF’S REPORT PISCATAWAY HIGH SCHOOL HIGHLIGHTS Jason Lester, Principal May 2016 MESSAGE FROM MR. LESTER This month, I had the distinct pleasure of being a tour guide as part of a reunion weekend of PHS alumni from the classes of the 1960s. As we walked throughout the school, it was evident that I was in the presence of the founding members who bleed “Black and Gold” and formed some of the rich traditions we still have today. Like many new generation P’Way family members, I cannot imagine PHS without the Anthony wing. Our family members that graduated in the sixties never had the luxury of the Anthony building because it was not built until 1974, five years after the graduating class of 1969. May 14th marked the first time that many members walked through the halls of the Susan B. Anthony “new building” as well as the “brand new” G-wing, which connects the Anthony Building to the Patton Building. The pride on their faces was priceless. I am so honored to have been able to tour with such a passionate and remarkable group of PHS alumni. Special thank you to Mr. and Mrs. Szymonowicz for organizing this reunion event. We live in a tremendous community with a great deal of support. I am proud to announce that investors Bank has awarded PHS $50,000 to support our health and physical education programs. Mr. Daniel Eatman, Assistant Vice President and Branch Manager of investors Bank on Stelton Road, has been very instrumental and a strong advocate for our school as well as for the district.

Cupids Advice: Music is truly beautiful, because it effects everybody in different ways. For every problem in life, there is a solution in a song. Music and relationships and love go hand-in-hand for multiple reasons. We dance with our partners, go to concerts together, have a special song that we refer to as ‘our song’ and we even describe our feelings for them through lyrics: 1. Choose your song as a couple: Many couples have a special song that they identify as their song. Pick ‘our song’ as a couple. Then every time you hear it you will both think of each other.
