The Scarlets won 23 of 27 contests, and three of the four defeats were by 1-0 scores, "The only legitimate loss we had was to Park Ridge 4-1 in the County final," said Gsell. "And even in that one we had the tying run at the plate in the late innings." len Navatoski had Iacabino in trouble with two out in the fifth, but McArow came on to strike out Andy Langer and end the threat. "It was and muggy, and Mike had been running the bases," said Gsell. "So when he tired, we brought in Matt and he kept us in the game. If we had fallen two or three runs behind, it would have been tougher to come back." Ridgefield Park had great opportunities in the fifth and sixth innings, but double plays killed both chances.

Iacabino hit into a twin killing in a bases-loaded, one-out situation in the fifth and Bob Lawlor bounced into a double play with men on first and second and one out in the sixth. "We scored our share of runs this year, but basically we won on defense and pitching," said Gsell. "This is the best year by far in Ridgefield Park history. We won the game-winning drive. Magro scored on an- error for the tally.

who finished unbeaten with his ninth victory, relieved starter Mike Iacabino in the fifth inning and hurled one-hit ball the final 2 13 innings. "MATT IS the kind of pitcher who'll throw the ball in tight or down and away, ac- cording to bis opposition," said Gsell. "But we knew nothing about our opponent," Gsell contin-. ued, "so we figured we'd start Mike. He's only given up one earned run all year.

He's the kind of guy who won't walk anybody or make the foolish mistake." Iacabino was touched for a run in the second on a single by Dennis Helmstetter, a sacrifice, a groundout and a single by Jack Marold.

"We had them in trouble all game and I was sure the law of averages would be with us this time," said Gsell. "He had to get the third one past Lakeland wins State Group 2 title. See Page C-8.

my cleanup hitter. And he couldn't." Joe Magro became the instant hero when he slashed a Terry Barnes' two-strike de livery, to right-center for a double, chasing home, three runs and sparking the Scarlets to a 4-1 triumph over Franklin Township in the Group 3 final. "We had the pressure on every inning," said Gsell. "We had eight men left on base and twice we hit into inning-ending double plays. The pitcher starter Mike Sokolos-ki was great.

Whenever he needed a strikeout pitch or a double play ball, he came up with it." Sokoloski started the seventh by walking. Hank Teel, but fanned Roy Lawlor for the first out. Frank Dyer singled Teel to third and stole second. Mike O'Shea walked to load the bases, and Sokoloski exited in favor of Barnes. Winning pitcher Matt McA row grounded into a force play at the plate for the second out, but Magro followed with his rinm.uiw RMnfitM Pfc.

She told my mother that she'd read about me in the paper so much and felt like she knew me. "And she wished me luck. I guess I should thank her, too." With that kind of Inspiration, Ancona was recovered sufficiently enough from the prom to bring back Bergen's only first place in the boys' competition.

Glen Rock sprinter Venesa Hugley won the 100 in 11-flat and Ridgewood's Jane Green overcame her nervousness and her archrival to win the 880 in 2:20.8. Ancona might have been able to double in yesterday's meet, having qualified for the 120 highs last week. But he figured a few more hours sleep were worth it "I got home at 3 o'clock this morning," he said. "I knew they were having the trials for the highs in the morning, but I didn't think I'd be able to run in them without falling asleep." "Besides I bad a better chance in the Intermediates." While Ancona slept yesterday morning. Green worried about her race.

"I was so scared I'd lose again to that girl from Princeton Kathy Woodbridge who beat Green in 'the state meet but finished second yesterday, "I lost to her by two-tenths of a second the last time and Mr. Brown Ridge wood coach Jock Brown wasn't too happy. I didn't want to see him angry again. I don't like it when he yells. I was so worried about losing I almost cried." MISS HUGLEY was favored to win her specialty and took her victory in stride.

"I'm just glad this is finally all over." Venesa said. "Everyone was getting so worked up about this. I'M glad it's over and I'm glad I won. I don't think I could have faced everyone if I came home a loser. Vanesa scored all six Glea Rock points, while Mary Say ers took a fourth In the high jump to help Ridgewood finish in a tie for seventh place with eight points.

Manalapan (1? points) raa away with the girls' team title, while Umoa and Montclair tied for the boys' title with 13 points each.
