Manasquan (1-0) at No. 6 Woodbridge (1-0): The honeymoon is over for new coach Kevin Coleman as he was able to win his first game last Friday, which just happened to be against crosstown rival Colonia. Now it is on to an unfamiliar foe in Manasquan from the Shore Conference. The Warriors have been a perennial power, making 32 playoff appearances and playing in 17 state championship games while winning 11 sectional titles. They play a brand of smash mouth football thriving on the run and play action pass. They opened up the 2016 campaign downing a tough Long Branch team 28-14 racking up 300 yards of total offense. Expect a similar style game plan as the visitors travel to Woodbridge.
The Barrons need to be focused on this week’s
opponent and they have to forget about last week’s win over rival
Colonia. They cannot afford to get behind early against a team that
likes to run the ball and milk the clock. The youngster Donovan Tabon
does not want to be forced to air it out and play catch up. Establishing
the run with Da’Avian Ellington and Keyhaun Henry will set up the pass
to one of the league’s premiere pass catchers in Quaasim Glover. Expect
Marquan Payne, Alex LaGrippo and the entire Woodbridge defense to rudely
welcome the Warriors to Middlesex County. PICK: Woodbridge
