Here's how Mount Olive QB Asbury got the Marauders rolling and downed West Morris

MOUNT OLIVE – For Mount Olive quarterback Jake Asbury, the past year has been all about overcoming adversity. Asbury, who lost part of last season to a concussion, is trying to lead his Mount Olive football team back from the abyss of a 1-9 campaign a year ago.

“We have no association from last year’s team,” said Asbury, who practiced every day over the summer with his offense, at 10 a.m. sharp. “I don’t know if any other high school team did the amount of work that we did.”

Asbury brushed off a rocky start with a pair of touchdowns to guide Mount Olive past West Morris 28-7 in the SFC Liberty White division contest Friday.

“I had to get the nerves out and we had to turn this around,” said Asbury, who completed just two of his first four pass attempts and was sacked on the initial drive of the game. “Everything that I do is about proving other people wrong.”

Asbury needed some time to get comfortable in the spotlight. The junior settled down with an efficient short passing game, completing 10-of-14 pass attempts for 105 yards, a passing touchdown and interception in the first half. He located six different receivers in the game with Jekori Zapata (seven catches for 69 yards) serving as his favorite target. The Marauders’ offensive line of Aidan Lynch, Richie Vanatta, Jeremiah Medina, Connor Smyth, and James Giammanco gave Asbury just enough time to unleash his quick tosses.

“He’s making his reads and getting the ball in short windows and that’s what we need from him,” Mount Olive coach Brian O’Connor said. “We have athletes and a big line, and hopefully we can keep this going.”

As the offense continued to muster confidence, Mount Olive’s defense stifled West Morris’ offense, which was outgained 193 to 59 yards in the first half. West Morris quarterback Jake Morris was 3-of-16 passing with a pair of interceptions by Jake Carlo and Anthony Collier.

Colin Cronin had a sack for West Morris, which had its 12-game regular season winning streak snapped.

What it means

Mount Olive improves to 2-0 in the SFC Liberty White, while West Morris falls to 0-1. It marks the first time the Wolfpack start division play 0-1 since they were in the Freedom Blue in 2018. West Morris lost to Randolph 10-0 and finished that season in a three-way tie for second place at 3-2 in the division.

The Marauders are tied with Roxbury for the top spot in the division. The teams are scheduled to play at Mount Olive on Sept. 29.

Key play

After a fake punt forced Mount Olive to climb out of a 7-0 hole, Asbury guided his team on consecutive touchdown drives. Tyler Cumming, who finished with 15 carries for 85 yards, converted a huge fourth-and-2 from the West Morris 33 to maintain the drive.

Three plays later, Asbury found Jack Mullery for a 15-yard touchdown connection on the right side of the endzone to give Mount Olive a 14-7 advantage with 1:40 left in the first half.

The touchdown catch capped a 10-play 78-yard drive that nearly five minute off of the clock.

By the numbers

? West Morris lost the turnover battle, 2 to 1.

? The seven points scored by West Morris is the lowest offensive output for the Wolfpack since 2006 when Mount Olive captured a 36-7 victory.

Game balls

? Asbury completed 16-of-26 passes with a passing touchdown and a rushing touchdown. The junior contributed 12 yards on the ground in the victory.

? Adam DeCristofaro had a pair of rushing touchdowns for Mount Olive.

? Jake Carlo had an interception and tackle for a loss for the Mount Olive defense.

They said it

“West Morris wanted to pound the ball, slow the game down, and grind things out and our guys were physical up front. Other than giving them a short field, we shut them down.”

- Mount Olive coach Brian O’Connor, who defeated Randolph and West Morris in the same season for the first time in his eight-year tenure at the school.

Up next

? West Morris (2-1) visits Roxbury (3-0) Thursday.

? Mount Olive (3-0) travels to Morristown (2-0) Thursday.

N.J. superintendent quits in fiery resignation letter, says school board created ‘toxic’ environment

The superintendent of a Morris County district — who was placed on paid administrative leave last fall and filed a lawsuit against school board members — has resigned.Mount Olive Superintendent ...

The superintendent of a Morris County district — who was placed on paid administrative leave last fall and filed a lawsuit against school board members — has resigned.

Mount Olive Superintendent Robert Zywicki submitted his resignation, effective immediately, to the district’s board of education last week. He had led the district since 2018 and was earning $238,000 a year when the school board placed him on paid leave in October for unspecified reasons.

In his April 27 resignation letter, Zywicki said some board members have “personal grudges” against him and “constructively discharged” him from his position.

Acting Superintendent Sumit Bangia accepted the resignation and the board will ratify it at the May 8 meeting, said board attorney Marc Zitomer.

“I will no longer fight for a job that has been spoiled for me. I will no longer watch this Board waste of hundreds of thousands of dollars of the taxpayers’ hard earned dollars paying legal fees to Mr. Zitomer,” Zywicki said in the resignation letter.

“I will simply move on, because my physical health and my mental well being can no longer tolerate the toxic and hostile environment perpetuated by the majority of this Board,” he said.

Antoine Gayles, the school board president, denied Zywicki’s allegations.

“As our counsel has stated in a separate letter to Dr. Zywicki and his counsel, now that the employment relationship has ended, we would expect that any disputes that the parties continue to have get resolved in the appropriate forums, not in the public domain,” Gayles said.

In March, the board certified tenure charges against Zywicki and sent them to the state, said Vittorio LaPira, an attorney hired by the board in January to handle employment matters related to Zywicki.

Because of the tenure charges, Zywicki’s suspension shifted to unpaid leave and he lost his health benefits, LaPira said.

Zywicki, who was placed on paid administrative leave in October, also cited the loss of health benefits as part of his decision to resign in an interview with NJ Advance Media.

A month after he was suspended, Zywicki filed a lawsuit against the board alleging members violated state laws when they put him on paid administrative leave. In December, a Superior Court judge denied his motion to be reinstated to his position. The lawsuit was dismissed and he dropped his appeal, Zitomer said.

Neither Zywicki nor the board has publicly said what led to his suspension.

In February, one board member filed tenure charges with the board secretary against Zywicki, seeking to have him fired. The tenure charges made several allegations, including that Zywicki pressured a school board architect to donate $100,000 to help fund a new football field scoreboard and pay for the gift by secretly inflating his regular fees paid by the district.

Zywicki denied any wrongdoing, saying the charges were in retaliation for his own whistleblowing last July exposing other problems in the district.

The tenure charges also alleged Zywicki was “double-dipping” by getting paid by the district as superintendent while also doing work for Rutgers University, an allegation he denied.

Another school board member asked the state Department of Education to intervene and appoint an independent monitor to oversee the 4,600-student district earlier this year amid the ongoing turmoil.

Separately, Zywicki’s lawsuit against multiple board members remains pending.

The lawsuit was updated in late April to name several current board members and one former board member as defendants. Zywicki alleged in the suit that the board retaliated against him for whistleblowing and exposing improper behavior by the board members.

The lawsuit also alleges board members orchestrated a scheme to destroy the superintendent’s reputation. Ethics charges Zywicki filed against several board members also remain pending.

Members of the board previously declined to comment or did not respond to requests to comment on Zywicki’s allegations.

Randolph Football Falls to Mount Olive; Record Now Stands at 1-1

Mt. OLIVE, NJ- For the second straight week, the Randolph football team fell behind early and trailed their opponent by multiple scores.

Mt. OLIVE, NJ- For the second straight week, the Randolph football team fell behind early and trailed their opponent by multiple scores. In the season opener last week the Rams stormed back to take victory, but unfortunately they could not repeat that in game two – and they fell to Mount Olive by the score of 34-12. ( Extra photos in link at end of story )

We just didn’t come out and execute tonight,” said senior Jessie Wilfong. We need to be better in all stages, including special teams. They executed better than us, and they did the simple things better – and that is why the game had the result it did.”

One thing the Marauders did execute well was the running game, which the Rams struggled to stop from start to finish. Mount Olive mixed in some successful passing on the night, but they really controlled the game through the run, and they seemed to be able to do whatever they wanted on the ground.

“What they did well was play tough and win the battle up front. They were able to run the ball, and in high school football the number one goal is to stop the run,” said coach Will Nahan. “We had a tough time doing that at times tonight. There were a few times when we had them in situations where we had the advantage, but then we couldn’t stop the run and get off the field.”

The Rams opened the game with a three-and-out, and then Mt Olive mounted a meticulous drive to go up 7-0. Randolph responded immediately, as QB Josh Anderson hit Justin Novak with a 45-yard pass down the right sideline to the 12-yard line. Wilfong then galloped into the end zone on a 12-yard TD run around the left side to cut the lead to 7-6.

From there, Mt Olive compiled the next three scores in the game, using a mix of passes and runs in the second quarter to score twice for a 19-6 halftime lead. They opened the third quarter with another TD to take command at 27-6.

Randolph didn’t roll over however, as they moved the ball on their next possession and used a trick play to get on the board again. A reverse to Jackson Magley turned into an option pass, and the sophomore found senior James Kleiven downfield at the 15-yard line. Kleiven broke a tackle and lunged into the end zone to cut the lead to 27-12.

However, the Mauraders running game struck again, as they ripped off a long run down the right side of the field, and scored two plays later for the final margin of 34-12. Dean Mangiocavallo blocked an extra point in the game for the Rams, while Gideon Ochieng forced and recovered a fumble.

“I think we need a little more focus during practice this week,” said Wilfong. “I will be reminding all the boys that nothing is going to be given to us, it has to be earned. We learned that today and need to figure out how to earn it for next week.”

The Rams also failed to generate much offense consistently throughout the game, as Anderson spent a lot of time scrambling and being chased around trying to find open receivers. The pressure the Mauraders mounted resulted in two interceptions and a fumble recovery for their defense.

“How the kids show up and respond on Monday will tell me a lot about their character,” said Nahan. “I am confident they will all be ready to work. Then it is just going out and executing our offense well.” for Extra game photos CLICK HERE

The Rams will face rival Roxbury next, home on Friday, September 8, home at 7:00 PM.

Months after abrupt suspension, Mount Olive, NJ school superintendent quits

MOUNT OLIVE — Months after his abrupt suspension, the Mount Olive School Superintendent has resigned — blaming the situation in part on “personal grudges” of some members of the Board of Education.

Robert Zywicki submitted his letter of resignation on April 27, effective immediately.

“Unfortunately, the Board of Education has become controlled by a small-minded group of individuals more interested in settling the score on their personal grudges than acting in the best interests of Mount Olive children,” Zywicki said in his resignation.

“These entrenched ‘good old boys’ make decisions based on whom they are against and their adversity to change rather than meeting the needs of ALL learners in the post-pandemic era."

Mount Olive Board of Education President Antoine Gayles confirmed the resignation without much further comment, in a public letter on April 28.

He said Sumit Bangia would continue as Acting Superintendent of Schools, as the board would launch its search for “a permanent replacement” for Zywicki.

At Monday’s Board of Education meeting, Zywicki was among six employees whose resignations were officially accepted by the board, according to the meeting agenda.

The latest developments have done little to shed light on what specifically prompted the jarring changes in the first place.

Zywicki has accused the board and its attorney of starting a disinformation campaign to “exact reputational harm” immediately after voting to suspend him in October.

He said the majority of the board and its legal representatives rejected “one opportunity after another” for six months to have a meaningful settlement dialogue.

“So, I will no longer fight for a job that has been spoiled for me. I will no longer watch this Board waste hundreds of thousands of dollars of the taxpayers’ hard earned dollars paying legal fees to Mr. Zitomer.”

Zywicki also filed a grievance against board attorney Marc Zitomer with the New Jersey Supreme Court Office of Attorney Ethics, saying that he repeatedly violated attorney client confidentiality — not just of Zywicki, but also of board of education members and parents.

That was administratively dismissed on May 8, according to the law firm where Zitomer is a partner.

Zywicki also filed a related complaint against the board with the U.S. Department of Education Office of Civil Rights.

In February, he filed an amended complaint in Morris County Superior Court, seeking multimillion-dollar damages from four members of the Mount Olive Board of Ed.

The “whistleblower” lawsuit from Zywicki says that defendants Gayles, Anthony Strillacci, William Robinson and Anthony Giordano schemed to “punish him and destroy his reputation” for calling attention to violations of policy, code and “good practice” in the school district.

Robinson lost reelection to the board in November — after serving more than 30 years as a member. The other defendants remain on the school board.

Also in February, one school board member filed tenure charges against Zywicki, seeking to have him fired.

Those allegations included that Zywicki was “double-dipping” by getting paid by the district as superintendent while also doing work for Rutgers University, an allegation he has continued to deny.

Another school board member asked the state Department of Education to intervene and appoint an independent monitor to oversee the 4,600-student district earlier this year amid the ongoing turmoil.
