Friday, October 28th
JP Stevens (1-5) at
Woodbridge (3-4) – Analysis
This
one is for all the marbles. The JP Stevens Hawks are coming to town on Friday,
October 28th at 7pm. As the Barrons did
unto Perth Amboy, so shall they do unto JPS. A win will guarantee a Playoff berth for Woodbridge. With those stakes, I don’t anticipate
any let down by the Barrons.
JPS
has 71 PF in 6 games (11.8 PPG). They
are limited in their offensive ground game and minimal passing game. Their
defensive side has allowed 165 PA (27.5 PPG). Their scoring differential is -94
(-15.7 PPG).
The
Woodbridge bounce-back win against Perth Amboy (35-0), set up this last chance.
With a 144 PF (20.6 PPG) – 113 PA (16.1 PPG), and a scoring differential of +31
(+4.4 PPG), I see the Barrons easily handling the Hawks both offensively and
defensively. And with Holger Alcivar PK
putting 3 of 4 PAT attempts through the uprights against Amboy, the kicking
game is looking a bit brighter and that is a good sign.
The
bottom line is the Barrons’s Playoff hopes and seeding ride on their ability to
defeat the Hawks. They are currently sitting with 69 PP in the sixth slot. A
win over JPS will provide an additional 14 PP. The Colonia – Kennedy game will
produce a guaranteed 3 PP, and the St Joseph – Carteret games a guaranteed 1
PP. If Perth Amboy defeats North
Brunswick, add another 3 PP. This scenario will yield a final total of 90 PP.
Then, it depends on how the 6th through 10th NJ2 - G4 teams fare so as to what
seed the Barrons will have earned.
There
is nothing the Woodbridge can do other than take care of their business, and
that is exactly what I predict. It’s time to “Strap up and Deliver”, and let
the cards fall where they may.
