Perth Amboy and Bayonne go head to head on Thursday at 4:30 PM in their first playoff matchup of the year. Bayonne have seen their point totals decreasing over the past three games, a vulnerability Perth Amboy are surely hoping to exploit.
Their game two weeks ago wasn't at all kind to Perth Amboy, but their most recent contest may have softened the blow. They dodged a bullet last Friday, finishing off Montgomery 26-25. Perth Amboy had a senior duo take command as Tahjmere O'neal passed for 100 yards and 2 touchdowns and Kenneth Carrillo. In fact, with 11 tackles Luna was a force on both sides of the ball.
Meanwhile, Bayonne came into their this week averaging 38.5 points per game, but Bayonne fell well short of that average, and it cost them. They fell to North Bergen 0-8. That makes it the first time this season Bayonne have let down their home crowd.
Perth Amboy's win lifted them to 4-4 while Bayonne's defeat dropped them down to 6-3. In Perth Amboy's win, senior Tahjmere O'neal passed for 100 yards and 2 touchdowns and senior Kenneth Carrillo. We'll see if Bayonne have a strategy for dealing with them or if they lead their team to another successful outing.
