Irvington 12 Union City 7

Irvington has proved time and time again in 2020 that they own one of the best defensive units across the entire Garden State. The Blue Knights proved that once again Friday in a hard-fought win over SFC Liberty Red divisional foe Union City. Nebraska-commit Mikai Gbayor led the unit with a dominant effort behind touchdowns from Al-Jay Henderson and Al-Muhaymin Lockhart.

Old Bridge 22 South Brunswick 18

Old Bridge bounced back from a crushing loss to Wayne Hills with a thrilling 22-18 victory over South Brunswick to snap the Vikings undefeated streak in 2020. The Knights took a 15-0 lead in the second quarter before South retaliated with 18 unanswered points. In the fourth, following a pass interference call that would put them in the red zone, Old Bridge capitalized on an eight yard touchdown from Lawrence Hunter for the game’s go ahead score. Hunter finished with three touchdowns.

Lenape 10 Shawnee 3

The Indians survive a late scare from the Renegades to pick up the win in this crosstown rivalry and stay unbeaten in 2020. Shawnee’s defense came up with multiple stops to stay in the game before a blocked field goal sparked a furious comeback bid in the fourth quarter. Tyler Davis scored the lone touchdown for Lenape in what proved to be a defensive battle throughout the night.
