CHARLES CIOLINO, Clifton DAVID FERGUSON, Eastslde LUIGI MINERVA, Passaic Valley Innovations keep fishers from missing the boat 1 mm )' great surprises of the year is this Colombian-born player who developed into a lethal shooter with 24 goals and 10 assists. "He played a half-season with us last year, but I never expected what he did this season," says coach Harry Bassett.

"He developed tremendously over the summer." At one summer camp, the attacking midfielder was so sensational that North Carolina State became interested and followed him the entire season. "He has a tremendous touch, a phenomenal passer," Bassett says. "One of the best that I've seen in a long time." BRIAN SADLOCK, Ramapo Another true defensive stopper. A three-year starter, Sadlock helped the Green Raiders to an amazing 44-2-1 record in the tough Northern Bergen Interscholastic League. "What makes him so good is that when there was a loose ball, he usually won it," says Baumgarten.

"He's so good that he makes the other defenders' jobs easier." JOE ALTAMURA, Lyndhurst "He worked very hard to become a good scorer after being primarily a feeder," says Arata, "and that includes the summers." It's obvious all the practice paid off because he tied for the County goal-scoring championship with 25 to go with 10 assists. "He could have had more but most times I took him out after he scored twice and I never left him in after three," says Arata. His best weapon is a powerful right-footed shot. Among the schools seeking his talent are Fairleigh Dickinson, St. Peter's, William Paterson, and Mont-clair State.

DEREK FRANK, Dwight-Englewood One of the more skillful players in the county who demonstrated his talents during the Bergen tournament. He kept the Bulldogs alive when he tied the championship game with Tenafly. He then twice in overtime of the replay for a 3-1 victory. "He plays end-to-end says Schmid, "and contributes a lot on defense. A very gifted player." Frank, who alternated with Franco from forward to midfield, registered 16 goals and 11 assists and should be more effective next season.

ANDERS GRABE, Ramapo A powerful shot, especially on direct kicks, contributed to a 24-goal season to go with 12 assists. "He's one of the best one-on-one players around," says Baumgarten. "What makes him so effective is that he keeps the ball in tight, making it tough to take away." Schools in all divisions, from Richmond to Trenton, are interested in the forward. SAVERINO ROMANO, Bergen Catholic "He's one of the toughest players IVe ever coached," says Hugh Beattie. "And he did his best scoring against the best schools, such as the two goals he had against Clifton." Despite being marked by one or two players, Romano delivered 19 goals and assisted on nine others.

"He never panics," Beattie says, "and besides having an outstanding shot from the right side, he is great in the air." Reminder to coaches High school varsity coaches are responsible for calling in results of their home games as well as any games played outside Bergen, Hudson, Passaic, and Morris counties or against schools not covered by The Record. Coaches or scorekeepers phoning in games to The Record should have the following information ready when calling: league and overall records fcr both teams, the score by periods, and the scoring summaries and highlights for both teams, including first and last names. For basketball we also need some play by play. Results of day games must be called in to The Record between 5 and 8 p.m. the day of the event Sunday through Friday and 2-7 p.m.

Saturdays. Night events should be called in no later than 10:30 p.m. Call in results to 646-4430. By Bob Kurland Record Staff Writer Dwight-Englewood never had placed a player on the Bergen County Coaches Association All-Bergen soccer team. But that changed this season when Gregg Franco and Derek Frank were voted to the first unit.

The two enabled the Bulldogs to become the first small school to win the Bergen County tournament. Frank joins Tenafly's Ted Flogaites as the only underclassmen on the team. And the lone returnee is slick midfielder Dave Fitzmaurice, who with two other selectees, Anders Grabe and Brian Sadlock, led Ramapo to an 18-3 record. The coaches chose one goalie, seven backs, which included defenders and midfielders, and four forwards. Here are the individuals: JIM FUCCI, Cllffslde Park The three-year starter came up with a sensational final season to help the Red Raiders finish third in the Group 3-4 poll.

"He's the best goalie I've had in 25 years of coaching," says Ron Merrill. "If we didn't have him, we would have been a .500 team." Fucci came up big in the crucial contests, turning in a spectacular performance in upsetting previously unbeaten Ramapo, 1-0, in the opening round of the Bergen County tournament. And in two wins over Englewood, he had 34 saves. Overall he averaged 11.2 saves per game. The netminder, who had nine shutouts, could wind up playing for Springfield.

DAVID FITZMAURICE, Ramapo Simple is the way to describe the midfielder's game. He goes out on the field and gets the job done without any excessive flourishes. "He has such great vision of the game that he makes the other players better," says coach Evan Baumgarten. "He definitely was our Most Valuable Player and one of the best in the state." Last year he was voted to the team, after scoring seven goals and collecting 10 assists. This year he picked up his level of play and finished with 14 goals and 15 assists.

Virginia and Richmond are among the many schools who have expressed an interest. GREGG FRANCO, Dwight-Englewood A second-team selection last year when he scored 28 goals, Franco was considered only a shooter by some coaches. But this season he alternated from the frontline to the midfield and demonstrated he was a multi-dimensional player who not only could shoot (20 goals), but could pass (15 assists) and play tough defense. "He was our man to go to," says coach Chris Schmid. "He has a high level of individual skills and is not a selfish player.

If anything, he didn't shoot enough." TED FLOGAITES, Tenafly "He was the key to our offense," says coach Bill Jaeger. And opposing coaches support Jaeger's statement, because they thought it was crucial to stop the midfielder. Flogaites is a fine dribbler, a strong passer, and tough on defense. He also scored 13 goals and assisted on six more. And with another year to go, the future looks very bright for him and the Tigers.

JUAN MADRID, Hackensack The midfielder controlled the tempo of the game as he directed the offense. "He's a very accurate passer," says coach Gus Migliore, "and he had the uncanny ability to isolate players. And what I liked most about him was that he played every game at 100 miles per hour." The senior was tough to defend because he could work with either foot. He wound up with nine assists and five goals. WILLIAM PASTEWAIT, Lyndhurst The rugged stopper moved up from the third team with his outstanding defensive play.

"He was our field leader who was like a second coach," says coach Cap Arata. "While there are stoppers who are very involved with the offense, he was a pure defender who played at a non-stop pace." The senior hopes to take his skills to the Air Force Academy. However, if he doesn't get an appointment, he may play for New Hampshire. DARLENSON ROLDAN, Englewood One of the DON ECKER the year. Focus on spots with nearby access to deeper water.

Fish move up to more shallow food shelf areas to feed on minnows and other forage fish and crawfish. The better areas have several steps at different depths. From the angler's point of view, the best food shelf spots are situated so that the deeper dropoffs can be reached with longer casts. By studying maps of several lakes, the shore-based angler can create an inventory of likely hot spots in the same way as the boat angler. The idea is to move around until the fish are located.

Not every spot will produce on every trip. When a particular kind of spot and technique works, repeat the pattern in other locations. Tackle selection is more critical for the shore angler, who has to tote his gear. Bring only what you need, but include a wide enough range of hires to fish various depths. It's better to bring a variety rather than a dozen of the same type and purpose.

Include several jigs, some plain hooks, split shot, floats, and natural or live bait if weight and distance are not a problem. Wading can improve the range of shore-based anglers, but as in all wading, safety is vital. Soft or mucky bottoms, sharp drop-offs, and other hazards must be avoided. A good knowledge of the areas to be fished is mandatory. The serious shore angler catches plenty of fish, without the day's end boat ramp hassle, and at a far lower cost per trip.

It's a great way to enjoy the wonderful sport of fishing. A large percentage of freshwater lake and pond anglers do most of their fishing from shore. Dedicated though they may be, some share the feeling that they are not part of the freshwater fishing mainstream that seems to focus on high-powered boats, electronics, and the latest in super-fancy fishing gear. Ignored if not forgotten, they simply go fishing on their own, without the constant stream of how-to assistance and new ideas readily offered to their boat-based brethren. Fortunately, shore anglers can make good use of lots of the latest tackle, gear, techniques, and information, and can employ many of the same concepts used by boat anglers.

The first step: get serious about the sport and learn how to catch more and bigger fish with consistency. Study the species you seek, be it bass, trout, pickerel, catfish, or panfish. Read everything you can books, magazines; plus watch the many instructional videos on the market. Attend seminars, and ask plenty of questions. Experienced angling lecturers will talk about the types of habitat that should hold the most promise, and will cover how fish movements are influenced by seasonal changes.

A vital step become an informed lake map reader. These maps are as useful to shore anglers as those who fish from boats. An excellent source for maps of the lakes in our region is the International Map Company, 547 Shaler Ridgefield, NJ. 07657, phone (201) 943-5550 or 943-6566. 0UTD00HS Another source is New Jersey Sportsmen's Guides, P.O.

Box 100, Somerdale, J. 08083, phone (609) 665-8350 days, or (609) 783-1271 nights. They also have maps of the principal streams in our area. By studying the lake maps, it's possible to establish a variety of spots worth fishing. Figure out the best access.

If it's on public land, fine. If on private, it is often possible to gain access by polite inquiry. I know several anglers who have an inventory of private farm ponds to fish that can produce lar-gemouth bass up to eight pounds. But more of that in another column. Good shore fishing spots vary as to species and seasonal productivity.

During spawning periods, fish frequent shallow areas. Again, at times during the summer and fall, fish move into the shallows to feed, and will stay shallow if sufficient weed or brush cover is available. If such shallows are also close to deep water drops, some first-rate fishing is possible during much of.
