Varsity Basketball had its best season in years, Fencing won gold at the District 5 tournament, ice hockey made its third consecutive Cohen Cup final, squash went to its second Nationals in Philadelphia, swimming placed third in the Union County Championships, and a number of athletes achieved personal bests in winter track.
