• Football: Gov. Livingston Comes Back to Beat South Plainfield, 14-7 (TAPinto South Plainfield) — South Plainfield’s football team fell 14-7 to Gov. Livingston on Saturday in Berkeley Heights, despite an early 49-yard touchdown run by sophomore David Dellipaoli. Turnovers and missed chances kept the Tigers off the board afterward, but a strong defensive effort sets the stage as they regroup to host Perth Amboy at home this Friday.
