The last time they were spotted on a football field together last November, Ugo Ezemma, Mike Bautista and Anthony Della Fave were celebrating after St. Joseph upset Don Bosco to earn a share of the Big North United Division championship, just a few days after the Green Knights lost to Red Bank Catholic in the Non-Public Group 3 semifinals.
So this time Sunday afternoon, the trio of Green Knight gridiron standouts was together at Winton White Stadium, playing for the New Jersey Senior All-Stars against a New York All-Star team in the third annual NUC All-Star Classic.

He'd Look Good in Silver and Black: Syracuse's Durell Eskridge (justblogbaby.com; Scott)
Durell Eskridge is a big, physical safety who could anchor Oakland’s secondary for years.
