Football: Hilltoppers Look to Rebound Friday Against Carteret (tapinto.net) — Summit's Hilltoppers football team will host Carteret at Tatlock Field on Friday at 4 p.m., in a game moved up from Saturday.

3. Ballistic Vest for K9 Bryan (crimewatch.net) — Summit's police K9 Bryan now has a new ballistic vest, donated by Spikes K9 Fund to better protect him on duty.
