Communities are in mourning from Toms River and Ocean County up to Niagara Falls, New York after hearing of the passing of 23-year old Patrick Romano this weekend in a house fire.

The days are getting closer and closer to the Toms River Field of Dreams turning from dream into reality.

Toms River's Todd Frazier has signed his latest contract to continue his Major League Baseball career.

Sports have a way of bringing us together and bringing out the best in us as individuals and a community, especially during the hard times.

The Toms River East Raiders went from major underdogs to a team moments away from competing for a state sectional title in 2019 while winning a division title with a 9-2 record, winning their first playoff game in 10 years and completing a four-year rebuild under head coach Kyle Sandberg.

Toms River's Todd Frazier will be playing close to home yet again after the New York Mets reacquired him at the 2020 MLB Trade Deadline.

This won't be a normal, typical summer in Ocean County as much as we wish it would be and as beaches and boardwalks reopen there will be restrictions and rules to follow.

The rebuilding process for any team takes a long time to turn things around and as Kyle Sandberg enters his fourth season as Head Coach, he's encouraged by the progress he has seen on the field and is expecting more out of his players in 2019.
