IHA Freshman Sensation Jen Pash Rolling Downhill
Sunday May 10, 2009
Jen Pash is casually kicking the soccer ball in this picture, but there was nothing casual about her performance in the NNJIL Division C League Meet.
Jen, just a freshman, placed 4th in the 100, 3rd in the 200, 4th in the 400 and was on the winning 4x400 Relay team for IHA.
What a great way to wake up on Mother's Day, but to read GE in the Sport's section...over and over again.
Congratulations, Jen - Keep Sprinting!

Athlete of the Week: Anthony D'Alessandro - Mahwah H.S. Baseball
Tuesday, April 28, 2009

Baseball is more than just a game for Anthony D'Alessandro. It's been an ongoing adventure.
Baseball has given the Mahwah junior, one of the premier hitters in North Jersey, an opportunity for some serious travel.
Florida. Georgia. The Carolinas.
In fact, summers with his traveling team have been almost like a preview of college life.
"It really is as if I'm in college," said D'Alessandro, who had 12 hits in 17 at-bats last week, including the 100th hit of his high school career, to earn The Record Male Athlete of the Week honor. "I get to live on my own, maybe with a player or two. I get to meet a lot of new kids, and that's been fun."
D'Alessandro will be away with his traveling team through July. While his classmates are working summer jobs or hanging out at the pool, he'll get a steady diet of the things he loves most — baseballs.
D'Alessandro said he hasn't looked at colleges yet, and part of his dream is to someday play professionally. D'Alessandro gave up basketball to run winter track to stay in shape for baseball, and did well enough to earn All-NBIL honors in the 55 meters.
When D'Alessandro isn't playing baseball, he enjoys studying history.
"It's nice to learn about the past," said D'Alessandro, who is studying the Cold War. "Even in baseball, I'm into old records and stats and things like that."
And that's only fitting because D'Alessandro has been busy rewriting the Mahwah record books. He set school single-season records in hits (60) and batting average (.540) as a sophomore, and he's not through yet.
"I love hitting," said D'Alessandro, who has been playing since he was 7 years old. "In any other aspect of the game, you know you're supposed to make a great pitch or make a great catch. In hitting, you never know what is going to happen next."

Oh, "Mercy...Mercy!"
Mahwah trounces Demarest 14-3 in 5 innings
On Friday, April 24th GE closed a little early to catch some of our "In-Season" athlete's perform LIVE!
Unfortunately, we didn't see much as they already put a large number 14 on the scoreboard before our staff showed up.
We did get a chance to take this picture of Zak Palmer, the TBIRD's power hitting 2nd baseman as well as watch junior right hander, Ryan McGirr close out the Norseman in the 5th.
Congratulations, TBIRDS and GE...but we must travel to another game to watch centerfield phenom - Anthony D'Alessandro in action.

Highlands loses to Ramsey in Extra Innings
Thursday, April 23, 2009
As indicated in the Headline, the Highlanders lost to the undefeated Rams in extra innings, but it was great to see Eric "the Bear" pitch and hit live in his senior season.
Bear has been a GE Client since his freshman season when he was just a cub. Now a big, ole Bear - Eric had 5 strikeouts through two innings and launched a two run homer to help his own cause.
Anderson is headed to FDU to continue his baseball career, but we look forward to more highlights from The Bear as the season progresses.

Did you remember to thank the "behind the scenes" people who really make your operation run smoothly and ensure your company is first class?
GE didn't. In fact, we gave Kate Giordano her flowers on Tuesday so she knows that not only did we not forget to show our gratitude for ALL that she does, but surprised her with the flowers a day early.
Thanks for Everything you do, Kate.

"The Bear" Claws back at the NBIL
Strikes out 13 in 9-1 defeat of Fair Lawn
Two years ago, Eric Anderson was performing elevated dips at our gym assisted by performance trainer, Michael Barrett.
Yesterday, Eric "The Bear" Anderson put the Highlanders in the WIN column again with a 3 hit, 13 strikeout gem and added an RBI to his own cause.
The Bear has worked hard at GE for 4 years and we are proud to read his name in the box score every time Highlands has a baseball game.
Keep Clawing, Bear!
