Dennis Scuderi Jr. was named the successor to Doug Colman tonight as head football coach at Absegami.

Scuderi is no stranger to the Cape-Atlantic League. He was head coach at Middle Township for two years, compiling a 2-18 record, before leaving last year to become offensive coordinator at Fairleigh-Dickinson. But, soon after, he left FDU for Rutgers as Director of Recruiting Operations. Scuderi had served in a similar capacity at Rutgers in 2004, after he had been an assistant to his father at Camden Catholic. His father is now head football coach at St. Augustine Prep.

Colman left Absegami after five years, 40 wins, the school's only three CAL championships and the school's only six NJSIAA playoff wins. He has returned to the University of Nebraska where he played on two national championship teams.
