Essex County Sports

Essex County Coach of the Year 🏆

Coach Gabe Baltimore setting the standard. Leadership, consistency, a culture built on winning, on and off the court. Over 100 wins and still raising the bar.

Well deserved. County got a real one 💪🏽

East Orange Campus High School did more than win. They made a statement.

🏆 Section 1, Group 4 State Champions

This wasn’t luck. This was culture, toughness, and ex*****on.

East Orange didn’t just rise to the moment,
they owned it.

From the hardwood to the gridiron… and now BIG TIME.

Salute to Jaden Craig on committing to TCU after a standout career at Harvard.

The original of Essex County Sports. Started as a hooper, evolved into a problem on the field. That work ethic never changed… just the arena.

Proud is an understatement. Watching this journey from the beginning, this one hit different.

Big stage now… but same hunger.
Go be great 🤘🏽🐸

KASSIDY AHMAD. REMEMBER THE NAME. ⭐️

Freshman year and already making serious noise…
Newark Tech standout Kassidy Ahmad wasted no time showing she’s different.

From day one, she made an immediate impact—helping push the program to a school record in wins and setting the tone for what’s next.

Now? She’s officially TOP 10 IN THE STATE… as a freshman. Let that sink in.

Elite skill. High IQ. Relentless motor.
And the scary part? Her ceiling is just getting started.

One of the BEST players in the county right now and the future is hers.

Gabe Johnson has been solid from day one — one of the original Essex County Sports hoopers who trusted the process and stayed the course.

Bloomfield, NJ native ➡️ Standout at Union City High School ➡️ Bucket getter at Central Baptist College ➡️ Now making noise in the German Regionalliga in year one 🔥🇩🇪🏀

Nothing was given. Everything earned.

A winner. A worker. A testament to what happens when you stick to the plan and don’t fold.

This is what it looks like when preparation meets opportunity.

Keep making us proud 🤞🔥
