They’re number one in more ways than one.
The girls who comprise the first Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School (RFH) Girls Flag Football team on Tuesday won their first sectional championship, making the team number one in the Shore Conference.
The final score was 26-13 in the RFH team’s win over Middletown High School South. With only two losses (8-2) in the season, the game that sent RFH to the Shore Conference was its win 17-6 over Pinelands in the semifinal.
So, the team, with Randy Kalman as head coach, basked in its winning first season as the girls savored that major win moment. Take a look at the photos above for a glimpse into the winning moment, courtesy of RFH mom Jenny Costello. (Click on one photo to enlarge and scroll.)

Flag football has become a popular sport in the high school arena, with 14 school teams competing this season. There’s talk of it going NJSIAA-approved next season. More are expected to join next year.
