EASTON, Pa. - The Lafayette volleyball team got a promising look into the future against La Salle on Friday night, as a trio of freshmen led the way in a 3-1 Leopards' victory. Lafayette took the match by set scores of 25-22, 15-25, 25-17 and 25-21. The contest was a part of the 2010 Lafayette College Invitational, which resumes tomorrow from Kirby Sports Center at 10 a.m.
The Leopards snap a three-match winning streak with the victory, moving to 4-6 on the season. La Salle drops to 3-10. The Explorers still hold the edge in the all-time series by a 13-7 count.
Freshman Molly Belcher, making her first collegiate start at setter, doled out 31 assists and shared the team-high of 18 digs to notch her first career double-double. Fellow freshman KARISSA CILIENTO(GE!) also had the first double-double of her young career, tallying personal career highs with 10 kills and 12 digs. First-year libero Mackenzie Larsen continued to fortify to Lafayette back row with 18 digs while also dropping in three service aces.
A pair of veterans also played a big part in the victory, as senior co-captain Kayly Elmer led all players with 14 kills and junior Alana Taylor contributed nine kills and three blocks. Rounding out the Lafayette attack were sophomores Alexandra Russo (four kills) and Kaitlynn Zoller (three kills), junior Mary Cunning (one kill) and Belcher (one kill).
In addition to Larsen's three aces, CILIENTO(GE!) and junior Christy Mebust each landed a pair and Elmer dropped in one. |

Connell will LEAD the RAMS vs. Mahwah tonight
Thursday, September 16, 2010
22 years ago, GE Owner-Pete Ohnegian played in a game under the lights for Ramsey H.S. vs. Northern Valley-Demarest. But there were shadows and the lights were temporary.
Tonight the RAMS & Captain - CORY CONNELL #70 will play in the first home game under "Permanent Lights" against cross-town rival, Mahwah H.S.
The TBIRDS won last year in a landslided victory against Ramsey's Junior Varsity. Tonight should be a game between two hungry teams that early on in the 2010 season will have A LOT TO PLAY FOR.
Best of Luck to Both Teams - because there is some light blue at GE and Coach Remo is a GE Friend. In the end, GE Owner will be pulling for THE RAMS as the Little GE TEAM will be at the game cheering for the HOME team. WARREN ROARK - GE Original - will be on the other sidelines and we know he is LIGHT Blue ALL THE WAY.
It WILL BE FUN - and that's what it is ALL about.

Gotta pick sides - but Cheering for GE comes first! |

Preparation to play BIG this Winter
Travis Stoller - NH Basketball - Sophomore
| |
 |
|
|
Travis Stoller could have just started his sophomore year taking classes and participating in some shoot-around basketball practices - but he has chosen to take his body and game to the next level.
Like most public high school athletic departments,Northern Highlands is focused on Fall sports in September and October. However at Good Energy - that is the optimum time for our Winter & Spring Athlete's to get an edge over the competition. Our Athlete's work hard and smart in the OFF-SEASON to maximize results IN-SEASON. Our Program is predicated on increasing speed, strength, flexibility, agility and conditioning which ALL helps in preventing injuries for our Athlete's.
We hope Travis Stoller (Bench Pressing) will maximize on the 12 weeks he is in our Off-Season Program 3x per week to go along with his travel basketball team, pick-up games at school, and of course school work and additional NH clubs he participates in as well.
Good Energy should be part of an Athlete's "ROUTINE" and that is what we are starting to convey to our clientele. Elite Athletes and Health conscious adults should incorporate fitness in their daily routine.
Travis will be way ahead of his competition physically by November 26th as well as MENTALLY because he knows he "put IN" the 36 Hours of HARD WORK with us to play better this Winter, and many of his teammates and competition are not.

KITTREDGE TO PLAY ON SATURDAY VS. OLE MISS
Tuesday, September 14, 2010
| |
 |
|
|
It's OFFICIAL!
During Vanderbilt Head Football Coach's Press Conference on Monday - Coach Caldwell said the following:
On which new players will be contributing on the offensive line:
"It will be [James] Kittredge and [Logan] Stewart. [Caleb] Welchans played guard for us and he had never done that before. We had experience players making mistakes and that's the frustrating part. We can't do as many plays as we thought we could. We have some things that we thought looked good but maybe it's just too much."
On becoming more physical:
"We have to create double team, trap them. There are a lot of things we can do and we're going to have to do better. Of course, we had some of that and we didn't execute and we went the wrong way and let a guy loose and now it's 2nd-and-15 because we made a mental mistake. Yes, physically we can compete with some people but when you make mistakes you can get a little intimidated and you start chasing yards, it's tough."
James was focused on Opening Day vs. Northwestern as you can see in the picture. However, he has now waited two weeks to SHOW WHAT HE CAN DO in the SEC!
We are excited at the Shop for James to break into the lineup and we know three things;
HE WILL PLAY AT FULL SPEED.
HE WILL PLAY WITH A NASTY STREAK.
AND HE WILL SELL OUT ON EVERY PLAY!
It is worth noting that the other lineman mentioned with James by Coach Caldwell is another Freshman who will break into the lineup on the offensive line this week: Logan Stewart
Logan is James's Roommate!
HARD WORK - PAYS OFF, BOYS!
Have a DAY at OLE MISS - GE is with YOU!

After a Busy, Busy Summer for both the GE Shop and for Michael Barrett - Mike is BACK @ the Shop!
He is pictured with Dik Barsamian on Monday night - helping him blow of some steam from a long Monday.
Michael picked up right where he left off. From Memorial Day to the week after Labor Day, Michael was overseeing the Ocean Beach II Lifeguards as well as competing in a rigorous competition schedule! Not only did Michael participate in ALL the guards competitions, he and several of the OBII guards entered some open rowing competitions as well to maximize on their physically demanding Summer.
We hope to keep Mike rolling with his training as we open the Shop to our Staff for mid-day Staff Workouts to encourage GE TRAINING as well as keep our TEAM loaded with GE!
Andy Romans, Michele Rozar, Pat Carley and Pete Ohnegian are happy to have Mike back as we continue to spread the GE Revolution during the last quarter in 2010.

Mawae - 16 year NFL Vet officially Retires
Saturday 9.11.2010
Kevin Mawae in the black visor - heading to the stadium during the "Star Walk" prior to the Vanderbilt-Northwestern game last week. One week ago today, GE spent 15 minutes talking to Kevin Mawae in the Hallways of the Vanderbilt Football House.
At the time, we didn't realize that he would be officially retired one week later after 16 years in the NFL and 8 Pro Bowl Seasons.
Great catching up with him about football, and hearing from a Pro's Pro how well James Kittredge is doing at Vandy & how excited they are that he chose their school.
Kevin is now a volunteer assistant for the Strength Department and the Offensive Line Coach.
Who better to learn from for James other than a Future Hall of Famer.

Fassler named Captain for 2010 Ramsey Hockey
Thursday, September 9, 2010
Good Energy received the GREAT News that Jake was named Captain via the "Penalty Box" email which is run by the Ramsey Hockey Club on Thursday.
We had expected Jake to be named Captain because of ALL his Hard Work he puts "in" off the ice and his Skills on it!
Congratulations to Jake and his parents Lee & Liz for their commitment over the years in sending him to Good Energy Training and for all the travelling they have done so Jake could be the player and leader he is today.

GE Field Hockey Players..."On the Offensive!"
The Bergen Record Field Hockey Preview 2010
from The Bergen Record
PLAYERS TO WATCH:
Tara Welch, Ramsey
A three year starter and returning team All-Bergen and all-league selection, Welch scored 10 goals and had four assists for the Rams in 2009. "Tara is moving forward all the time and is very dangerous around the net, especially on deflections," said Ramsey coach Becky Fantry.
Two-time defending Bergen County Champion, Northern Highlands should be strong in the midfield and "keying the front line will be junior forward Catherine Peebles."
Both Tara and Catherine trained at GE this Summer and we look forward to their games this year for GE Bragging Rights!

So nice to see that our Athlete's Skill matches their Hard Work at the Shop.

Saturday - 9.4.2010
Nashville, TN
Before the botched 2-pt Converstion - it was anyone's game on Saturday night at Vanderbilt.
It was a little anti-climatic because ALL the pre-game hype of James Kittredge playing "in" his first Collegiate game was "ALL for NOT" as he did not play.
The GOOD ENERGY Staff is encouraged by the first hand feedback we received from Offensive Line Coach Herb Hand, Strength & Conditioning Coach John Sisk and 1st year Oline/Strength Coach "Intern" Kevin Mawae - a just retired 16 year NFL Veteran Center and multi-year ALL PRO.
Good Energy owner, Pete Ohnegian spoke to all three coaches who had HUGE compliments to give James and our Shop for the work we have done with him. Despite changing over from the defensive line during camp, all three coaches intimated that we would be seeing James play LIVE on Saturday night - but it never happened. They liked his Strength & Power, ability to adapt to his new position and the face that he has shown TOUGHNESS & a NASTY side in Pre-Season.
We look forward to sharing with you pictures from the weekend as well as when James DOES PLAY this year - and it could be as early as next week in the LSU home game on Saturday.
