The following is an edited press release from Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School:

Everyone knows that the Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School (RFH) football team has claimed its second consecutive NJSIAA Central Jersey Group II championship.

The Bulldogs shut out Delaware Valley High School in a 21-0 rout on Dec. 6 at Kean University’s Alumni Stadium.

Here are some quotes and details about the win that were just released:

“I am so proud of this group of young men for having faith in the coaching staff, themselves, and their teammates to stick together and believe that a championship was not only possible but attainable after a rocky start and numerous injuries,” said Bryan Batchler, who has coached the team to two Central Jersey Group II titles in his first two seasons as head coach. “We are blessed with tremendous community and administrative support and – most importantly – tough, intelligent players that know how to win and keep our tradition of success rolling.

“Back-to-Back, guys, YOU did it!”

The Bulldogs ended their season with a 9-3 record, giving Batchler a record of 20 wins and four losses over his first two seasons as head coach.

The 2014 Sectional title is the third for RFH, which earned its first Central Jersey Group II championship in 2010 under former Head Coach Shane Fallon. This season marked the Bulldogs’ fourth appearance in the Central Group II final in the last five seasons, and fifth in the last eight seasons. The Bulldogs also claimed the Central A Public Shore Conference Championship this year.
