Those include an overtime thriller between St. Peter’s Prep and Don Bosco Prep, Red Bank Catholic’s huge Shore Conference win, a last-second bonanza in Sayreville and a bevy of other games from all parts of the state. Watch our teaser video then scroll down to watch all 10 games of action: St. Peter’s Prep 26 Don Bosco Prep 23 (OT) St. Peter’s Prep quarterback Maasai Maynor led the Marauders with a four-touchdown performance including a five-yard touchdown run in overtime to capture a 26-23 win over Don Bosco Prep. Maynor tallied 325 yards in the offensive outburst for St. Peter’s Prep. The win comes six days after the Marauders mustered 13 points against a stout DePaul Catholic defense. JSZ’s Jay Cook was in Ramsey for this North Jersey instant classic: Sayreville 13 Edison 12 There was only 0.5 seconds left on the clock, but that was enough time for Mark Whitford to find Jacari Carter in the corner of the end zone from 18 yards out to give Sayreville a dramatic win on the road. JSZ’s Bryan DeNovellis was there to capture all the excitement from one of the best finshes from the 2018 season: Red Bank Catholic 41 Long Branch 14 The Caseys took over a 14-14 game with six minutes to go in the third with 27 unanswered points to get to 6-0 on the season.

In the second half both teams would lead back to back defensive stands, but Notre Dame quarterback Robbie Buecker would put one last score on the board to get his team the W. JSZ’s Nery Rodriguez has the call: Thank you to Princeton Orthopaedic Associates for sponsoring both our Notre Dame and Hightstown coverage. We look forward to bringing you more Irish and Rams athletics all year long!

Toms River North 2018 JSZ Football Preview

Toms River North 2018 JSZ Football Preview

Toms River North Ready To Right the Ship Typically known as an Ocean County public power, Toms River North took a step back last year with a 1-9 record. But head coach Dave Oizerowitz will be turning to physical and oversized linemen to set the tone on both sides of the ball. Senior Stavon Drew will anchor the offensive line and brings experience to the group. Experience will also help out a young defensive line anchored by Najae Hallenbeck and CJ Niedzielski. Hallenbeck, a 16-year-old standing at 6’7, 290 pounds, has already been offered by Rutgers. Niedzielski brings a blue collar toughness to the defense. The Mariners will also employ a fresh offense to improve on last year’s squad. Fans can expect to see Jarrod Pruitt and a stable of tailbacks run the offense in 2018. JSZ’s Jay Cook has the story on the 2018 Mariners.
