By MIKE MONOSTRAThe Sun

Shawnee High School tennisseniors Eric Tecce and ChrisMachuzak had been a part of more wins in their four-year ca-reers than any Shawnee boys’tennis player before them.

The two helped guide Shawneeto South Jersey Group IV champi-onships in each of their threeyears, winning all of those match-es easily, 5-0. This year, the Rene-gades swept through their earlyseason schedule, entering theSouth Jersey Group IV champi-onship against Cherry Hill HighSchool East last Monday with aperfect 16-0 record.

However, about 45 minutes intolast Monday’s match, Shawneeappeared to be in trouble.

“Looking around, I saw wewere down on pretty much everycourt except for Cole (Tecce) at

second singles,” Eric Tecce said.“Once I saw we were down 4-1pretty much after the first set, Ihad to pick up my game. It’s whatdrove me to pick up my intensity.”

Shawnee stormed back againstCherry Hill East, winning thematch 4-1 to earn the team’s fifthstraight South Jersey Group IVchampionship.

The win was extra special forEric and Machuzak, who became

the first players in program histo-ry to be part of four sectionalchampionship-winning teams.

“It may never be duplicated,”Shawnee head coach Jim Bakersaid of the seniors’ achievement.“I hope someone does it, but itmay never happen.”

Eric and Machuzak bothagreed this year’s sectional winwas the toughest of all.Machuzak and his first doublespartner, Ben Mead, had to rally towin their first set, 6-4, over JesseDubrow and Kevin Hu of CherryHill East. The Cherry Hill East

pair then won the second set, forc-ing a winner-take-all third set.Machuzak and Mead would winthe third set, 6-2.

“You have to reflect back onwhat you did and realize you'repart of something bigger thanyourself,” Machuzak said.

“You’re not winning this for your-self. You're not winning this foryour doubles or singles match.You’re winning this for yourteam. That’s what drove me fur-ther.”

Eric faced a similar challengeat first singles against RahulGoculdas. Eric fell behind, 4-1, inthe first set but rallied to force afirst set tiebreaker and won, 8-6.With the momentum going hisway, Eric easily won the secondset, 6-2.

“After being down 4-1 in thefirst set, to imagine yourself com-ing back and winning the match,you never would have thought itwould have ended like that,” Ericsaid.

Eric’s win clinched the cham-pionship for Shawnee. He fin-ished his match just afterMachuzak and Mead won theirthree-set battle. Eric’s brother,Cole, got Shawnee’s first point

with a 6-1, 6-1, win over CherryHill East’s Adam Yu.

“Your heart is pounding,” Ericsaid of the feeling before matchpoint. “You know you’re so closeto doing something that neverhappened before.”

Shawnee’s fifth straight cham-pionship win came in the midst of one of the program’s best seasons

in our opinion

Would legalizing pot be good?Too many unknowns exist for us to agree to that

letter to the editor

Speak out against movingschool voting to April

On June 1, Medford Council will vote tomove November school voting to April.Mayor Beenstock and Councilman Dennoppose this nonsense. Councilman Buoniis the champion of this anti-school measure

spun as a taxpayer right. The real intent isto usurp the elected Board of Education.

Great schools are the cornerstone of great towns and home values. Medfordschools are among the top in South Jersey.Incredibly, Buoni was quoted in the press

that Medford schools “are a bottomless(spending) pit, and the worst part is we arenot getting any return for our dollar.” Obvi-ously Buoni’s scheme is to control schoolspending and commandeer the purview of the elected school board.

School budgets are only voted upon if there is a tax increase of more than 2 per-cent. No other budgets at the federal, state

or local level, except fire districts, are votedupon. Those budgets are approved by elect-ed bodies. In the past, school budget voteswere in April with low turnout and theschool budget became the whipping boy forall taxes. The animus between school par-

ents and anti-tax foes was disruptive, andmean spirited. Town Council had the au-thority to alter defeated budgets. Thus forpolitical reasons there was a slash andburn mentality. Purportedly fewer than 20school districts from 600 in New Jerseyhave April budget votes, which will costMedford $30,000. Local school tax is 48 per-cent of property taxes. A 2 percent school

hike yields a 1 percent increase (about $100per home). For 2016 it was only $48. It is in-sane to disrupt the whole community overa possible 1 percent tax increase. School aid

The taboo that hovered over

marijuana for years is rapidly

evaporating into a puff of

white smoke. Gone are the “Reefer

Madness” days with the belief that

marijuana does significant harm to a

person’s body. Gone, too, seems to be

the belief that marijuana is a “gate-way” to more serious drugs.

Across the country, marijuana laws

have loosened – from legal medical

marijuana in states such as New Jer-

sey to the decriminalization of it in

Philadelphia to the full legalization of

it for recreational use in states such as

Colorado.

Pot is now more of a socially-accept-

ed practice, and it’s becoming a big

business – one that advocates for its

legalization in New Jersey say could

reap $300 million in sales tax revenue

per year.

A joint report released by the New

Jersey United Marijuana Reform and

New Jersey Policy Perspective said al-

most 370,000 people in New Jersey 21

and older use marijuana illegally on a

monthly basis, according to federaldata. The consumption of 2.53 million

ounces of weed a year, at the street

price of $343 per ounce, nets about

$869 million in sales.

The report estimates that if New

Jersey were to legalize pot, control its

sale like that of alcohol and tax it at 25

percent, that could result in quite the

boost to the state’s economy.Representatives from the group and

other weed advocates say it’s time for

the full legalization. Gov. Christie has

said for a long time that he will not be

the governor to sign such a bill into

law, but he leaves office after next year.

Starting in 2018, then, it’s at least a

possibility that legalized marijuana

for recreational use will come up for a

vote in the Legislature.

We’re glad that discussion is most

likely two years away, because we

don’t feel there’s enough solid infor-

mation on the effects of legalized mar-

ijuana to say the money is worth it.

At the forefront of this lack of infor-

mation, for us, is the absence of clear

knowledge of the effect of legalizingpot on impaired driving. Colorado, for

example, handles “stoned driving” as

a DUI, no different than being under

the influence of alcohol. But there are

no field tests to see whether a driver is

stoned, and blood tests only say the pot

was in a person’s system recently, not

necessarily at the time he or she was

driving.

There are plenty of other concerns,

too, such as the long-term effects of

prolonged use of marijuana, whether

it’s something we should be promoting

and whether we’re legalizing it just for

the windfall of cash.

There’s a lot to think about, a lot to

study and a lot to discuss.

We’re just glad we won’t have to do

that soon.

Former Lenape Regional HighSchool District superintendentKereazis Kiki Konstantinos wasknown by district students and

staff for his dedication to foster-ing excellence in education.More than 40,000 students re-

ceived education under Konstan-tinos’ tenure as superintendentfrom 1963 through his retirementin 1993, and the district saw itsschools grow from one to three.

Although Konstantinos passedaway in 2002 at age 74, educationis still promoted in his name tothis day through scholarships

awarded to district students everyyear by the K. Kiki KonstantinosScholarship Foundation.

However, foundation chairSteve Zeuli said the group can’tdo it alone, so he’s once againinviting members of the public to

attend the foundation’s 24th an-nual Kiki Open Scholarship Golf Tournament fundraiser on Tues-day, July 19 at the Medford LakesCountry Club in Medford Lakes.

“Mr. Konstantinos, Kiki as hewas known, was the architect andthe vision for what we have heretoday,” Zeuli said. “There’s thou-sands and thousands of studentsthat have been benefited from hisplanning and his enthusiasm and

his instruction.”According Zeuli, rather than

honor Konstantinos with a tokensuch as a gold watch upon his re-tirement, a group of communitymembers chose to establish afoundation bearing Konstantinos’

name to provide scholarships tosenior students.Zeuli said the scholarship pro-

gram initially started by offeringone scholarship to one student ateach of the district’s threeschools in 1993, but as the yearswent on and Seneca High Schoolwas added to the district, thefoundation eventually grew to of-

fering four scholarships to each of the district’s four schools.

The standards used to awardthe scholarships are also in-linewith those set by Konstantinoshimself, who during his time assuperintendent saw the districtmaintain excellence in academ-ics, sports and student activities.

Scholarship winners exhibitstrength in all three of thoseareas, and, according to Zeuli,

with the money collected so farthis year, the foundation hasraised more than $450,000 for itsscholarships since it began.

However, as Zeuli points out,

the annual golf tournament onJuly 19 is the foundation’s oneand only fundraising event forthe entire year, so Zeuli is invitingall those interested in promoting

education in the district to signup.

“We have all of these scholar-ships, one fundraising event,”Zeuli said.

Zeuli said this year the founda-tion will also be funding one addi-tional scholarship in honor of former foundation member andformer LRHSD board memberEarl Siegman, who passed awayin August of last year.

“He, like Kiki, was a true archi-

tect of many of the things thatwent on in this district,” Zeulisaid. “He was a board member formany years as well as a greatcommunity servant.”

Those interested in supportingthe foundation through the golf tournament can sign up for a fullday of activities for $210, whichincludes the golf outing, a lunch-

eon buffet and the dinner andawards ceremony. Those lookingto help the foundation but stay off the green can sign up for justcocktails and dinner for $95.

For those looking to give more,multiple sponsorship opportuni-ties ranging from $125 to $5,500are also available.

I amthankful to Carol for what shebrings to Cedar Run and our re-gion.”

Erickson is well known toPhiladelphia-area residents, hav-ing spent more than threedecades as a CBS3 reporter, an-chor and meteorologist. She left

CBS3 in July 2015 and is now a

daily news anchor and show hoston BurlingtonCountyTimes.com,BucksCountyCourierTimes.com,and TheIntell.com.

Erickson always has been espe-cially passionate for family petsand other animals. While onCBS3, she included “pet advi-sories” in her weather forecastsand reported on animal-relatedstories. She also hosted the popu-lar “ask the vet” segment with Dr.Jerry Geffen for years, which shecontinues to host on the websitesof the newspapers for CalkinsMedia and Comcast On-Demand.Erickson also earned a diplomain companion animal behaviorcounseling – canine behavior,from the American Institute forAnimal Science, now the Ameri-can College of Applied Science.

"I am thrilled to be on CedarRun’s board; it’s a non-profit or-ganization I have tapped into for30 years for help and advice onthe many birds, snakes, and wild

animals I have encountered onmy own Burlington County prop-erty,” said Erickson. “Cedar Runalways has helped me, and now itis my turn to help them continuetheir mission to keep wildlife safeand free, and to educate the pub-lic on the importance of nativeanimals and truly open space."

For her support of animals, Er-ickson was awarded the Pennsyl-vania Society for the Prevention

of Cruelty to Animals All-Star

Award in 2007, and was an hon-oree at the PSPCA Good DogsGala in 2008. In 2012, she wasgiven the Dog’s Best FriendAward from the PhiladelphiaKennel Club, and in 2015, she re-ceived the Lifetime AchievementAward from Lulu’s Rescue.

In 2010, Erickson wrote “Not AUsed Dog, At All,” a book encour-aging the adoption of shelterdogs; profits from book sales ben-efitted local animal shelters andrescue groups. The book won theBest Children’s Book award fromthe Dog Writers Association of America in 2011.

Erickson holds a bachelor’s of science from the University of Arizona, and is a certified broad-cast meteorologist with the Amer-ican Meteorological Society, con-sidered the gold standard of ac-creditation in meteorology. Erick-son has received numerousEmmy Awards.

Erickson lives on a farm with

pets, including horses, and enjoyswatching wild animals cross herproperty while living in nature.She has a daughter and a grand-son.

is funded by income taxes. When

the income tax was implemented,most districts, including Med-ford, received 45 percent aid forthe school budget. Medford nowgets 10 percent as Trenton hasshifted our tax dollars to otherdistricts. We get less state aid indollars than 20 years ago. If wecould get 45 percent, our schooltax would decrease about 40 per-

cent. Federal and state govern-ments have placed unfunded cost-ly mandates on schools, drivingup costs. The number of studentsneeding special education hasrisen and is now 18 percent of our

student body. Those kids need ourhelp but cost as much as doubleor more than regular educationstudents. Medford district spend-ing per student versus all NewJersey K-8 districts is middle of the pack, not at the top.

Buoni is grandstanding andshould be convincing Trenton togive us our fair share of school

funding. We don’t vote on thetownship or other budgets, so heis hypocritical. Medford Town-ship put $1 million in reservefrom the 2015 municipal budgetand appears to rebudget the $1

million excess. If not needed,council could have reduced taxes$110 on the average home or dou-ble the $48 increase for the localschool district this year.

The resolution vote on June 1is not worth the acrimony. Pleasecome to the meeting, Email or callCouncil to cease this power play.
