HACKETTSTOWN — Centenary College hired Justin Phoenix to head the women’s basketball team, Director of Athletics Billie Jo Blackwell announced.

“We are excited to have Coach Phoenix join our staff,” said Blackwell. “His playing experience, both at the college and professional level, will be a tremendous asset to our program. We are confident that he will do an excellent job coaching our student-athletes and building upon the level of success that exemplifies Cyclone Athletics.”

“I am truly honored to be selected as the new women’s basketball coach, said Phoenix. “I am greatly appreciative to director of athletics Billie Blackwell and the entire search committee members for allowing me the opportunity to lead this program. It has been a long time dream to have my own program and from the moment I stepped on campus it felt like I belonged.”

Phoenix played four seasons at Manhattan College from 1992-96. During his career at MC, he helped the team reach the postseason four times, including two NCAA Tournament and two NIT Tournament appearances. The Jaspers won the MAAC Championship in 1993. He earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in Communications from Manhattan in 1996 and then spent several seasons playing abroad for various European club teams from 1996 to 2006.

Phyllis Mallah ‘Stands Up’ for Springs School
On a fixed income, she also wants to explore cost cutting measures.

Phyllis Mallah’s philosophy when it comes to schools is simple: “A quality education, in a safe environment, as economically as possible.”

It’s on that basis she is running, again, for a seat on the Springs School Board of Education. In 2009, she lost a bid to join the board, but holds hope that this time around, residents will see her value.

*** and ***

Although she already had a master’s degree in elementary education from Manhattanville College, she returned to school for another master’s in supervision and administration from Manhattan College.

*** and ***

While she has retired from teaching, she hasn’t left behind her “passion for maintaining great schools for kids.” An active member of the East Hampton Democratic Committee, she said, “If we do not have an educated population, how do we maintain a democracy?”

St. Luke’s Teacher Shares Love of Physics
by Melvin Mason

*** begin quote ***

Mike Mitchell wants his science students to do more than just “solve for X.”

“I look at a building, but I see through the walls and see what holds it up,” said Mitchell, a physics teacher at St. Luke’s School. “I keep that wonder of a child and explain how it works. It’s much more interesting that solving an equation. For me, it’s about the application, and I’m fortunate enough that I learned this as an engineer.”

Mitchell, in his fourth year of teaching physics at St. Luke’s, says he finds joy working with and learning with his students about how things work. But he wasn’t always interested in becoming a teacher. He was introduced to it during the summer of 2003, in between his junior and senior years at Manhattan College in the Bronx, N.Y.

Dear John,

   I would like to point out that Michael comes from a long line of Jaspers: His Grandfather, Anton Miorin, ’52 RIP was a Jasper Engineer as was his Great-Grandfather. In addition, his Uncle Todd Miorin is a member of the Class of 1993, and Todd’s twin brother, James, is a member of the Class of 1996. I have had the pleasure of knowing (and sharing a glass) with all 5 of them!

   Best,
   Mike
