New Milford HS is where Ed Marinaro (Cornell,Nyk Jets, later Hollywood actor) went. I used to do interviews there as a alumni rep for the school.
Yup. He used to cross the lovely Hackensack River to work out in our locker room where we were among the first to have a Universal Gym which was a big deal. Weight lifting was just becoming the thing to do. He was big up top but with track runner legs. Ran around a 21.5 220. Then on my recruiting trip to Cornell, they featured him. Quite a funny and charismatic guy. Made 100k a year with the Jets which was good money at the time.
