📰 News we're reading

• Missing stars, No. 6 Toms River North football finds new stars vs. Manalapan (app.com) — Manalapan High School's football team pushed sixth-ranked Toms River North to the wire at home Friday night, ultimately falling 29-23 in a hard-fought game. The Braves struck first and kept rallying late, with big plays from quarterback Cameron Desfosse and his receivers, but Toms River North's depth and a standout performance by senior Wesley Tanner proved just enough to hand Manalapan its fourth loss.
