WELCOME TO THE HOME OF THE SUPER BOWL CHAMPION RUTHERFORD BULLDOGS
2008 PEE WEE SOUTHERN DIVISION CHAMPIONS & NATIONAL COMPETITION CHEERING CHAMPIONS

|
All RJF Cheerleaders & Parents,
If you are in receipt of a handout from the Rutherford Recreation Dept claiming to sponsor or fund a cheer team, please disregard it. The reality of any organization starting a cheer squad with uniforms (vest, skirt, warm up), insurance, pompoms, mats, practice facilities, radio/music & tournament entrance fees, for $100 is absurd. With our Borough taxes increasing & Recreation Dept looking to cut over $30k for budget purposes, it certainly was not thought out properly.
Rutherford Recreation for some odd reason was under the impression that Rutherford Junior Football & Cheering was not going to have their Competition Team and never contacted RJF to substantiate. RJF met with Borough Officials Friday and confirmed that Rutherford Recreation will not be organizing or funding a cheering program.
In fact, the RJF Board and Coaches have been discussing whether to have one or two competition teams for the 2009 season. We are extremely proud of our Cheering accomplishments and will continue to grow our program. Some of our most notable Cheering accomplishments over the years are placing at Walt Disney, Ramapo College, Lyndhurst HS, Hershey Park and Queen of Peace HS.
We are having a RJF General Meeting Wednesday night at 8:00 pm and will discuss our Competition Team/s for 2009. Feel free to attend our meeting and discuss.

Former RJF Player Corey Wootton
Former Rutherford Jr Football star gearing up for huge season...
Olin BuchananRivals.com College Football Senior Writer
His upside is high, as is his energy level, his sacks total and the praise he has received for his play.
Yet, somehow, Northwestern senior defensive end Corey Wootton seems to have a low profile outside of the Big Ten.
Corey Wootton is one of the most dominating pass rushers in the country. Ask a fan to put together a list of the nation's premier pass rushers and it surely would include TCU's Jerry Hughes, Arizona State's Dexter Davis, Oklahoma's Jeremy Beal, Texas' Sergio Kindle and even Troy's Brandon Lang. But omitting the 6-foot-7, 270-pound Wootton would be a mistake.
Last season, Wootton had a breakthrough season: 10 sacks, 16 tackles for loss and an interception (one of four in his career). He was the only Northwestern player to receive first-team All-Big Ten honors and was a reason the Wildcats won nine games last season.
"Corey's grown, first and foremost, from a maturity standpoint in the way he goes about preparing for each game," Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald said. "Last year, his motor in practice was relentless, and his play on Saturdays was a direct result of the way he practiced. … He has a tremendous motor on top of his fundamentals."
Wootton had such a strong season in '08 that in December, he was contemplating entering the NFL draft. But he suffered a knee injury in the Alamo Bowl loss to Missouri, which shelved any NFL plans. Before the injury, at least one NFL scout projected Wootton possibly going late in the first round. He'd even drawn praise and instruction from former New York Giants All-Pro defensive end Michael Strahan, who lives near Wootton's parents in Rutherford, N.J.
Yet, on a national scale, he's still relatively unknown – and he would like to keep it that way.
"I'm just trying to help my team win," he said. "We're getting more media attention because of the year we had, but you try not to think about it. If you have a low profile, you don't have to worry as much about double-teams. If [opponents] don't know me, I get more one-on-one blocks."
That's going to change. Opposing coaches know about him, and offensive linemen will.
Wootton said he'll be ready for the inevitable double-teams and "chips" from running backs. In fact, he said he's even better than a year ago, ironically, because of the injury.
He was having a strong game against Missouri; he had a sack, three tackles, an interception and generally had caused mayhem before tearing his right ACL in the fourth quarter. He had surgery in mid-January and has been working his way back since.
"Nothing comes easy, especially when you've had a knee injury," he said. "But several people I know have come back from an injury faster and stronger. You focus on things you never did before, like balance."
Improved balance should make him an even better pass rusher.
"You definitely have to be able to stay on your feet, maneuver and cut on one leg," he said. "So it's a key part. I never thought about that in the past."
Few in the past would have thought of Wootton as one of the nation's best defensive players. But any list this season should definitely include Wootton – and up high.
