Playing on a different stage

Here at All-Star Sports Academy, we're always proud of the achievements of the athletes with whom we work.

A lot of the time, we're celebrating their being named to an All-County, All-Shore or All-State team. Sometimes, we're celebrating a college scholarship or acceptance.

Every so often, however, we get to celebrate something really unique!

That's what happened last week with Matt Kalinowski. Matt is a young athlete who plays lacrosse.

Matt also, apparently, has some pretty serious acting skills!

He landed the role of "The Beast" in the Toms River Intermediate School production of "Beauty and The Beast!"

I saw Matt's last show Saturday night, and he was terrific!

I was proud of him, excited for him and a little shocked at how comfortable and natural he looked on stage!

We're proud of Matt, and as soon as we have video of his performance, we'll post it here and at http://www.allstarsportsacademynj.com
