Manasquan were in the stands of the New Jersey Group 2 state finals instead of on the court on Saturday, but gave Camden a standing ovation after their win.
Although the Manasquan school district decided to take legal action regarding an egregious referee error, members of the high school's boys basketball team showed tremendous sportsmanship on Saturday. The Jersey Shore high school thought they had won a trip to the Group 2 state championship after a buzzer-beater against Camden earlier this week. However, officials gathered afterward and reversed the call, giving Camden a 46-45 victory.
Manasquan's lawsuit asked for the championship game to be put on hold, but it took place on Saturday afternoon at Rutgers University, with Camden winning their second title in three years. Although they weren't on the court, Manasquan players still made the trip north to the Rutgers campus to watch the game, and when Camden won the title, Squan players gave Camden a standing ovation.
On Friday night, a post came from an X account that is purportedly Camden athletic director Will Hickson’s. He said, 'See you at Rutgers..' with heart emojis and the 1989 movie poster for Spike Lee’s 'Do The Right Thing.' Some in the comments viewed the post as trolling, considering the lengths Manasquan has gone in trying to reverse the decision made on Tuesday night.
