MARLBORO’S GISELLA ROMEO NETS 1,000TH POINT
By Eric Braun
MARLBORO – Gisella Romeo joined Mustang royalty on Feb. 13 when she scored her 1,000th point. The 5-foot-7 senior is a four-year player for the Marlboro program and entered the season needing just 302 points to reach this milestone.
During her freshman season in 26 games, Romeo recorded 147 points on 60 field goals made, 6 three-pointers and 19 free throws made. In her sophomore season in 28 games, she increased her scoring to 197 points on 73 field goals, 10 three-pointers and 23 free throws. During her junior season in 27 games, Romero became one of the top scorers in the Shore Conference with a career-high 354 points on 124 field goals, 17 three-pointers and 55 free throws.
In her senior season that is still going strong with the Mustangs advancing deep into the Shore Conference Tournament, and the NJSIAA tournament right around the corner, Romeo has already surpassed her career high in three pointers with 26 this season and will most likely surpass her career high in free throws from last year as she currently has 49, field goals where she currently sits at 100 and total points scored where she has 321.
