Looking to follow all of the athletes from New Jersey at the Olympic Games in Tokyo? Our USA TODAY Network team across the Garden State has you covered.
Check back here throughout the Games for the latest updates, from softball’s first pitch on July 20 — three days before the Opening Ceremony — through the Closing Ceremony on Aug. 8.
Alexia Lacatena makes Sussex County history
It’s a moment that will forever go down in Sussex County history.
Stanhope native Alexia Lacatena became the county’s first athlete to compete in the Summer Olympics when she came on to pitch in relief for the Italian national team against the United States on the opening day of competition on Thursday at Fukushima Azuma Baseball Stadium in Fukushima, Japan.
The 18-year-old Lenape Valley High School graduate took the ball from starter Greta Cecchetti with runners on the corners and no outs in the top of the fifth inning with the Italian national team trailing the U.S. 1-0.
“Right now, the pride of Lenape Valley and the Patriots, having an Olympic moment as a teenager,” Beth Mowins said on the broadcast.
“Pretty special moment for the youngster,” Michele Smith added.
Lacatena gave up a sacrifice fly, infield single and a walk in the fifth but got out of the jam and tossed a perfect sixth inning. The United States won the game, 2-0.
Lacatena, whose mother was born in Italy and whose father was born in New Jersey but grew up there, has been competing for the European side since she was 15. She was called up to the senior national team at 17, helping them win the European Championship earlier this month.
The Kentucky commit did not compete in her senior season for the Patriots this spring as she prepared to achieve her dream of competing in the Olympics.
“Growing up, it’s always been that I’m…

Alana Glynn | For the Pocono Record
In early May, I hiked Caldeno Falls which are also known as “Diana’s Bath” by the locals in our Pocono’s. Caldeno Falls is a lovely trail that is a part of the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area and Appalachian trail.
I was extremely lucky to choose such a beautiful spring day. This hiking trail is approximately a 7-minute drive from The Shawnee Inn and Golf Resort.
We started our hike around 10 a.m., birds were still singing, and the trail was not busy. There were a few other groups out hiking. The path behind the big “Leave No Trace” sign is the beginning of the Caldeno Falls trail.

After a short walk into the trail, there is an owl box up in the trees. These nesting boxes provide owls with a secure location to nest. Soon after passing the owl box, a small bridge spans over a gentle-flowing creek. This bridge was built by an Eagle Scout; his father still maintains the bridge.
After the bridge, a ten-minute walk on the main path leads to the waterfall— Diana’s Bath. Many people end their hike here, but as hiking guides, we know there is so much more to the Caldeno Falls trail beyond Diana’s Bath.
Although the Caldeno Falls trail (green dot trail) is one of the shorter, less intense trails on the Appalachian, I still recommend novice hikers seek the expertise of a guide or other experienced hiker.
It can be tricky finding the 17-foot waterfall since there are lots of deer trails that lead to endless loops along the route to the falls. The trail becomes quite narrow and has sheer drop-offs as you get closer to Caldeno Falls. I recommend hiking boots or any shoe with good traction. There are a lot of roots on the ground, and sheer drop-offs; wearing the appropriate footwear is a must.
After the waterfall, continue on the trail to the highest point of the mountain. Along the way, you will encounter the mile-long rock. The mile-long rock was a part…

Ferry service shuttling folks between the Tuckerton Seaport and Beach Haven got underway on Saturday. There was an 11 a.m. departure waiting for those who had just enjoyed the Tuckerton holiday parade, ready to motor across the bay to enjoy the afternoon in the southernmost town center on Long Beach Island.
Capt. Dick Gouldey awaited at the dock, alongside tour guides Taylor Katchum and Bailey Holcomb, to welcome passengers aboard the Pohatcong II, a 40-foot pontoon boat with two motors and two floats, suitable for navigating the shallow Tuckerton Creek.

Holcomb explained to passengers that the Pohatcong II is named after its predecessor (the Pohatcong I), a steam-powered vessel that ferried people from the Tuckerton Railroad over to Beach Haven in the 1800s. Because the Lenni-Lenape were the first people in the area, the Pohatcong takes its name from an Algonquian word meaning “stream between two hills.”
According to Katchum, because the first European settlers to colonize the Tuckerton area in the 1680s were Quakers, and therefore passivists, they had a more peaceful coexistence with the natives than that in most other areas. Despite the relocation of most Eastern tribes to the Midwest, indigenous people remain in New Jersey today. The Lenni-Lenape headquarters are in Bridgeton, Katchum said.

Atlantic County authorities located the body of a 23-year-old man who drowned Sunday while swimming at Weymouth Furnace park, a popular gathering place and starting point for canoeing and kayaking on the Great Egg Harbor River.
The incident happened around 2:30 p.m. at a watering hole with posted signs warning that swimming and standing in the water are prohibited. The park is located on Route 559 in Mays Landing, just north of the Black Horse Pike, in Hamilton Township
The victim, who was not identified, was pronounced dead after he was pulled from the water around 4:30.
Weymouth Furnace remains closed to visitors on Monday amid an ongoing investigation.
Swimming is not permitted in Atlantic County parks, with the exception of The Cove in Lake Lenape Park, which is patrolled by a lifeguard.
“County officials remind the public of the importance of only swimming in guarded, designated areas whether in the ocean, a swimming pool, lake or river,” Atlantic County said in a statement on Sunday’s incident.
A witness told the Press of Atlantic City that three young men were tubing on the river and were not acting in a reckless way at the time of the incident. The water appears to be shallow, but drops off steeply and suddenly. When one of the men went under, his friend reportedly ran to get help.
Several people in the area attempted to locate and rescue the man before first responders arrived.
Weymouth Furnace, located about 22 miles northwest of Atlantic City, is a former industrial site that was first an iron production facility in the 1800s and later the location of paper mills. The remnants of industrial buildings still stand on the property. Atlantic County acquired a portion of the area in 1966, maintaining it as a historic site within the county park system….
Prabal Gurung, a New York-based Nepalese fashion designer, ignited backlash for photoshopping an AAPI-Indigenous solidarity mural in Chinatown for his new Resort 2022 collection.
The controversy: Gurung showcased the new dresses in his collection last week, Vogue reported.
-
Two of the pictures from the collections drew flak online, prompting ethnographer Diane Wong to call out the brand for removing the mural on a red brick wall in Chinatown’s Mosco street, according to Refinery29.
-
The mural is a way to pay respect to the Lenape people, which the Smithsonian Magazine described as the true native New Yorkers.
-
Non-binary Asian artist Jess X. Snow created the mural, “In the Future Our Asian Community is Safe,” as a depiction of a future “where we transcend white supremacy and anti-Asian violence,” W.O.W Project told Refinery29.
-
The group described the removal of the Indigenous land acknowledgment as “harmful,” adding, “Indigenous land cannot be erased and Chinatown is not a backdrop for capital gain. It is unfortunate that this act of erasure has distracted us from the intention of this mural. We simply want to recenter the conversation back to this intention: creating a healing space for our community.”
Addressing the issue: Gurung apologized for his actions last Friday and asked Refinery29 to publish the statement in full.
