Manalapan will take on Sayreville in the second round of the playoffs on Friday. The stakes are high as the two teams are all in, each fighting to extend its postseason success.
Four stomps in nine total games is nothing to scoff at, and that's exactly where Sayreville stand after their most recent match last week. They steamrollered Hillsborough 42-7. Senior Connor Holmes was the offensive standout of the match for Sayreville, as he caught 7 passes for 116 yards and 2 touchdowns. In fact, with ten tackles Holmes was a force on both sides of the ball.
Meanwhile, Manalapan earned some postseason bragging rights after a successful outing last Friday. They came out on top against Hunterdon Central by a score of 14-7. The success made it back-to-back wins for Manalapan.
Their wins bumped Sayreville to 8-1 and Manalapan to 6-3. We'll see who bends and who breaks when these two typically dominant teams face off.
