TCNJ tops Rutgers-Camden in NJAC men’s basketball

CAMDEN CITY, N.J. (Feb. 5, 2020) – The College of New Jersey men’s basketball team grabbed a 35-21 halftime lead and held off Rutgers University-Camden, 77-64, in a New Jersey Athletic Conference game here Wednesday night.

The Lions improve to 13-8 overall and 10-4 in the NJAC with their 11th straight win over the Scarlet Raptors. They lead the all-time series, 68-18.

Rutgers-Camden falls to 7-14 overall and 4-10 in the NJAC.

The Scarlet Raptors held a few early leads, with the last coming at 12-11 before the Lions took the lead for good on a three-pointer from freshman guard Anthony DiCaro. Leading 23-19, the Lions rattled off nine straight points on the way to their 35-21 halftime lead.

The Scarlet Raptors sliced the margin to eight points (55-47) midway through the second half on a layup by junior guard

Arian Azemi,

but the Lions padded their lead back to 17 points 64-47 before Rutgers-Camden made a late-game run. A 17-7 spurt, capped by a three-pointer from freshman forward

Dylan Trow,

cut the gap to 71-64 with 3:26 remaining, but that was as close as the Raptors could get. TCNJ scored the final six points of the game, with the final four scored by senior guard Randall Walko, who was named the NJAC Player of the Week on Monday.

Walko and junior forward Travis Jocelyn finished with 17 points apiece for the Lions, while senior forward Ryan Jensen added 15 points. Jenson also led the Lions with nine rebounds, helping TCNJ take a 44-31 advantage off the boards.

Despite the loss, the Scarlet Raptors accomplished a few individual milestones in the game. Senior forward

Isaac Destin

notched a game-high 29 points and 13 rebounds for his eighth double-double of the season. The 29 points moved him into seventh place on the career scoring list with 1,219, passing Ray Pace, who had 1,201 points in two seasons from 1975-77.

Azemi, meanwhile, collected two steals to hike his season mark to 72, setting a new single-season program record. He passed the previous mark of 71, shared by Joshua Askew (2009-10) and Marvin Young (1980-81).

Azemi also added 18 points and a game-high five assists, while sophomore forward

Jake Petrik

scored 13 points.

Prosecutor Files Motion to Dismiss Indictment Against Kevin Baker/Sean Washington

Camden City, N.J. (February 4, 20200-– Acting Prosecutor Jill Mayer today announced that the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office will file a motion to dismiss the indictment against Kevin Baker and Sean Washington and retract its notice of intent to appeal this case to the New Jersey Supreme Court.

After full consideration of the recent Appellate Division opinion reversing the convictions of Baker and Washington and granting them new trials, the Prosecutor’s Office will not re-try the defendants for the murders of Rodney Turner and Margaret Wilson.  This decision was made in consultation with the Office of Public Integrity and Accountability within the Attorney General’s Office.

On January 28, 1995, 35-year-old Turner and 40-year-old Wilson were fatally shot outside the Roosevelt Manor Apartments in Camden.  In 1996, Baker and Washington were convicted of murder and other related charges by a jury and sentenced to life in prison.  Over the past 25 years, the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office has successfully defended the convictions through multiple layers of state and federal appeals.  While the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office disagrees with the Appellate Division’s basis for a new trial, the Office respects the decision of the court.  Notably, the Appellate Division did not declare Baker and Washington “actually innocent” and did not find error with the initial prosecution of this matter or the majority of the rulings made by the trial court during the trial and post-conviction relief hearings.

In deciding to dismiss, the Prosecutor’s Office considered the totality of the circumstances, including the passage of time and the impact it would have on re-trying the defendants and proving the case beyond a reasonable doubt.  Considering our mandate to pursue the interests of justice at all times, retrial after this length of time is not feasible in this particular case.

Camden County PD Sergeant Lydia Perez Retires After 25-Years-of-Service

CONGRATULATIONS–The Camden County Police Department held a special ceremony on January 31 to honor Sgt. Lydia Perez, who retired after 25 years of distinguished law enforcement service in Camden City.

Sgt. Perez was recognized by the Camden County Police Department in 2015 for her outstanding work. The following is from that proclamation.

She joined the former Camden Police Department in 1994. Four years later, she was assigned a critical role overseeing the department’s Uniform Crime Reporting. Sergeant Perez has served in that role since 1998 with the former city department and now with the Camden County Police Department.

Every week, Sergeant Perez reviews hundreds of police reports and must ensure that each crime that occurs is properly classified in accordance with the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting standards and that these numbers are reported accurately to the New Jersey State Police.

Despite handling a daily volume of reports that is exponentially higher than most other police departments, Sergeant Perez has been recognized by the State Police as being one of the best and most accurate UCR reporters in the entire state for more than a decade. She regularly achieves UCR accuracy rates of 98 percent and above. During the recent New Jersey State Police audit of Camden County Police Department UCR crime statistics, the department was found to have achieved a 100 percent accuracy mark in correctly classifying crimes for the first quarter of 2015.

“She really takes the time and dedication to do the job based on the FBI guidelines. With her accuracy, she’s one of the top UCR reporters in the state,” said Lieutenant Spencer Hildebrand of the New Jersey State Police.

“Sergeant Perez demonstrates her commitment every day through her hard work and the high standard she sets for UCR reporting. She is a tremendous asset to this department,” said Assistant Chief Orlando Cuevas.

For her continued excellence and dedication to her job, we honor Sergeant Lydia Perez as Camden County Police Department Officer of the Week.

On behalf of the residents and community you served, CNBNews would like to thank you for your dedication. And, we wish you the best in your retirement.

He operated the first postal service from a one-story frame building he owned on the southeast corner of King and Market Streets. From 1847 he was active in the administration of the school system, first as treasurer and later as acting superintendent. Dr. Mulford was an incorporator of the first building and loan association and Cedar Grove Cemetery and an organizer of the First Presbyterian Church, Cloud Lodge, and Arwames Lodge of Odd Fellows.

James L. Hines, one of the town\’s most highly respected citizens, was a well-known businessman and politician. He served as justice of the peace and mayor of Gloucester and was a member of the state legislature for two terms. Mr. Hines was an incorporator of the Mutual Building and Loan Association and Cedar Grove Cemetery. He was also very active in the First Methodist Church.

John Butts, handyman on William Thompson\’s estate, was a well-liked and respected Negro member of the city. The same young people who kept other Negroes out of the town would spend hours with him. Social workers came to Gloucester looking for poor blacks to help. They finally located John and asked him where the Negroes were. Mr. Butts very politely answered, \”Here I is!,\”

William D. Antrim, inventor, who lived at 920 Gaunt Street, was awarded patents on an oven door hinge and on an oven for gas ranges by the United States Patent Office in 1931.

John Owens, born in Gloucester in 1857, began building the model boats for the Memorial Day ceremonies in 1901. He continued this service until he was 92 and had constructed 48 boats for the celebration.

Henry S. Holmes, Gloucester\’s Indian fighter, served in three wars. He enlisted during the Indian Wars of 1890-92, was part of the Rough Riders during the Spanish American War, and fought in Mexico under Pershing. He was fond of telling stories about the days when Gloucester had about 150 farms.

The Rt. Rev. Msgr. M.E. Bric was the guiding light of St. Mary\’s parish from 1913 until his death. Under his administration of the parish the educational system was developed from an elementary school to a complete system known for high academic standards.

John A. Lynch dedicated 40 years of his time, effort, and concern to the public school system as a member of the Board of Education. Twenty-one of those years, he was president of the board. Mr. Lynch was also very active in the First Methodist Church and Cloud Lodge.

Emma Burns, organizer of a women\’s club in the city, was instrumental in starting the Gloucester Public Library. She was also involved in the activities of the D.A.R.

Grace A. Demarest devoted many years of service as a volunteer with the American Red cross. She also was active in promoting the Gloucester Library. Mrs. Demarest worked in canteens for servicemen during both world wars.

Miss Priscilla Redfield taught in the public schools from 1850 to 1903 and Miss Rose McBride taught from 1896 to 1949. Each contributed 53 years of service

to the children of Gloucester City.

Mary Ethel Costello, for whom a school has been named, dedicated her life to the children of the city. She inspired many others, including her sister Margaret, to become teachers. Miss Costello\’s high academic and personal standards were guidelines for many.

Sister Agnes De Lourdes put many children on the road to knowledge in the 50 years she devoted to the students of St. Mary\’s Grammar School.

Judith Unger Scott, former resident and graduate of Gloucester High School, became a well-known author of books for teens. Two of the books were Lessons in Loveliness and Manners for Moderns.

(Hundreds of others, male and female, have made Gloucester the fine place to live that it is. Those described above are simply examples of the many. Perhaps someday a biographical dictionary will be written-a Who\’s Who of Gloucester.)

Eleanor Jane Hansen, 81, of Haddonfield, NJ

Eleanor Jane Hansen, 81, of Haddonfield, NJ, passed away on Friday, January 30

th

at Virtua Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital after a brief illness. Born on January 19, 1939 in New York, NY, she was raised in midtown Manhattan by her parents Cornelius and Ella Curtin. In the mid-70s, Eleanor moved to Atlantic County, NJ, and in her late 30s, she attended Stockton State College, graduating with a

bachelor’s degree in 1980. She then obtained her master’s degree in English from Rutgers University, which launched her 30-year career as a college writing instructor. Over the years, Eleanor taught at Stockton State College, Rowan University, Atlantic Community College, and, in her later years, at Thomas Edison University.

An avid reader and sports fan (Dodgers and Redskins), Eleanor was beloved by her students due to her strong presence in the classroom and her wide range of interests. Whether it was pop culture, modern sports, contemporary music, current and classic literature, history, or politics, Eleanor’s vast knowledge base was treasured by her students. She did not miss an episode of Jeopardy, and she usually dominated. Eleanor was also a major cat lover and supporter.

She is survived by her two sons Thomas and John Hansen (wife Holli Hansen) and her five grandchildren Christian, Nicholas, Benjamin, Olivia, and Crystal Hansen.

At the request of the family, cremation is private and there is no service.

In lieu of flowers, donations in her name can be made to American Association of University Women. Condolences and Memories may be shared at
