Neptune's Scarlet Fliers passed a mile- stone as they made it to the semi-finals. Outstanding players like Wendell Mul- drow and John Barone led the team to its final record of 12-6-2. The first game of the season in the Wall Festival played against St. Rose resulted in one of the team's two tie games of the season, While several players felt this was the season's toughest game, others felt that C.B.A., who handed them a 3-1 loss, dealt the strongest blow to the team's efforts.

Those same skills did, however, keep the team going and allowed them to rise to the level of the competition. Some players felt that the toughest game of the season was played against East Brunswick during the semi-finals. The Pliers, defeated by a narrow 1-O mar- gin, played hard in spite of the intense pressure. All in all, it was a fairly good season with lots of support coming from coach- es, friends and family.
