This final weekend of October should a great one when it comes to sports, although it does not appear the weather will cooperate…at least not for the first half.
The Breeders Cup gets underway at Monmouth Park with three million-dollar races on tap for today…the final three of a 10-race card which begins at 12:30. Saturday is the big day with eight races and live TV coverage all day on ESPN.
If College Football is your thing well there’s Rutgers hosting 6th ranked West Virginia at high noon on Saturday while in the evening top-ranked Ohio State travels to Happy Valley to take on Penn State.
Certainly the weather figures to be a factor with the high school football schedule which features two games tonight which will decide or at least have a lot to say about division championships. Holmdel and Point Boro are two of the three undefeated teams left at the shore and they meet at Al Saner Field to determine the National Division champs. At the same time Wall visits Red Bank Catholic with a win by the Crimson Knights giving them the Liberty Division title.
Shore Conference Tournament soccer crowns will be on the line Saturday night at Neptune with Howell battling Manalapan in the Boys Final before Jackson Memorial takes on Brick Memorial for the Girls title.
The weather has already forced a postponement with the Shore Conference Boys & Girls Cross Country Championships moved from Saturday to Monday afternoon at Holmdel Park.
Oh…and the World Series moves to Colorado for games Saturday & Sunday Night.
Pardon me as I take care of a couple of items involving the town of Beachwood, where I happen to live. The PTO’s Children’s Fair and Craft Show scheduled for tomorrow at Beachwood Elementary School has been moved to Sunday (11am-3pm) because of the weather forecast as the event will be held outside and inside.
The Beachwood Soccer Club will host a Gift Basket Auction on Saturday, November 3rd at T.R. Intermediate South in Beachwood with doors opening at 5:30. Tickets can be obtained by calling (732) 473-0915.
