Preview: Columbia vs. Montclair

Their game two weeks ago wasn't at all kind to Montclair, but their most recent game may have softened the blow. Last Saturday, they won a match that couldn't have been any closer, slipping by East Orange Campus 28-27.

Meanwhile, there's no need to mince words: Columbia lost to West Orange, and they lost bad. The score wound up at 7-44. This makes it the second loss in a row for Columbia.

Everything came up roses for Montclair against Columbia the last time the two teams met as the squad secured a 56-0 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for Montclair since the team won't have home-field advantage. Watch the game and check back on MaxPreps to see if the change in venue makes a difference.
