• These 22 N.J. boys soccer teams have caught our attention so far in 2026 (nj.com subscription) — Hasbrouck Heights boys soccer has surged to a 5‑0 start, already surpassing last year's .500 Patriot Division record and even knocking off defending co‑champ Lyndhurst, 1‑0. With just one goal allowed and 15 scored, the Aviators boast one of the NJIC's best goal differentials, led by hot scorers Erdit Mani and Angelo Gianella and a defense that's quickly turning heads statewide.

• Rubouts, and robots. AI meets the mob in new film shooting in NJ (northjersey.com) — Hasbrouck Heights will be one of several North Jersey backdrops for "The Don 2.0," a low‑budget mob comedy that starts filming around the region on Sept. 22. Writer‑director‑star Alan Del Tufo is using local spots from Oakland to Rutherford as he imagines what happens when a crime family lets AI run its rackets, blending familiar faces, neighborhood businesses, and a darkly funny take on technology's lack of morals.
