A slam dunk of a reprise to honor the great season RFH Boys Basketball is having … Go Bulldogs!
Yes, it’s basketball season. And there’s some championship playing going on with the RFH Boys Basketball team.
And while some things never change, including family names still involved in the sport at RFH, there are also many changes — like uniforms and, of course, the audience.
There was a lot of cheering, a little dancing on the court, and prideful chatter on social media on Monday night when Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School Boys Basketball won its second consecutive state championship.

The following is an edited press release from Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School:
Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School (RFH) students were recently recognized by the Board of Education for their academic and athletic achievements.
“It is becoming increasingly commonplace for us to begin our meetings here in the auditorium to accommodate all of the students who are accomplishing amazing things,” RFH Superintendent Peter Righi told the assembled students, parents, coaches, and club advisors at the April 14 Board of Education meeting. “The certificates awarded tonight are not just another piece of paper – they have a much deeper meaning as the ‘end game’ result of a lot of hard work.”

RFH point guard Brendan Barry has been named Player of the Year and Varsity Head Coach Chris Champeau has been named Coach of the Year by the Shore Coaches Association, according to a press release from RFH.
