Sunday means "Jersey Day"

Traditions are what make any annual competition more meaningful. There's the green jacket at The Masters. The roses after the running at the Kentucky Derby. The obligatory milk toast at the end of the Indy 500.

And at the SND annual competition, Sunday (or "Day Two" as we prefer to call it on the SND International Web Desk) is Jersey Day. The tradition is a tribute to HARRIS SIEGEL (Asbury Park Press M.E. for visuals, SU grad and resident of ... wait for it ... New Jersey), who as both a judging assistant and later a judge, regularly wore jerseys all weekend long on competition weekends. Today, the tradition continues. Sunday is a special time when assistants, and some judges, don their favorite teams' regalia to, y'know, represent. It started with hockey jerseys and has ballooned to include pretty much any team garb.

We asked everyone at the competition wearing jerseys today to tell us something about their sweaters.* Roll tape...



*Hockey jerseys are traditionally called sweaters.
