 MR. BARRY RIZZO Although these years have gone quickly by. we have come to ad- mire Mr. Rizzo greatly, for it was his generous spirit and determina- tion as a coach at Matawan High that led our school to many, many victories. The football team is especially grateful to him for his valuable ad- vice which secured for them fifteen consecutive victories, and the re- spected title of Shore Conference Champions. Both the girls’ and boys’ track teams will always remember Mr. Barr. Rizzo’s resolute expression, his “never say die attitude, and his sincere concern for the condition of their health. His “one-two-thrcc-four! will echo eternally in our gyms, and it is an honor for us to have shared the experience of receiving this earnest cheer. The state meet, the highlight of the track season, might have filled the air solely with tension if it weren’t for the vital quality of good sportsmanship which “Uncle Barry possessed, and somehow im- parted to us. His faith in these teams afforded them an undying con- fidence which assured them their many victories. We. the class of 1968. deeply appreciate all that you have done for us, and it is in remembrance of your generous, devoted nature that we dedicate this yearbook to you. Mr. Barry Rizzo. 5
