#Colts RB Jonathan Taylor is a prime example of it doesn’t matter where you come from. Taylor attended Salem — a small high school — before playing in the Big Ten. From a small South Jersey city to one of the best, young running backs in the #NFL . Never give up on your dreams.

24 games attended and numerous feature stories produced in this shortened season. I spent most of my Saturdays traveling all over South Jersey covering two, sometimes three games a day. I wouldn’t have wanted to spend my time any other way. Thank you SJ for an excellent year! 🏀
