Dunellen have had a week off and are no doubt ready to get back on the field. Middlesex and Dunellen go head to head next week at 6:00 PM in their first playoff matchup of the year. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, Dunellen and Middlesex will really light up the scoreboard.
Dunellen earned some postseason bragging rights after a successful outing two weeks ago. They made easy work of Becton and carried off a 38-16 win. No one put up better numbers for Dunellen than senior Jacob Sanders, who brought his A game into the match. He rushed for 261 yards and 2 touchdowns on 22 carries. This marked the third game in which Sanders has rushed for over 100 yards.
Meanwhile, Middlesex put the finishing touches on their sixth blowout victory of the season last Thursday. They were the clear victor by a 48-27 margin over Holy Cross. Middlesex were expected to win, but the margin was definitely larger than the state rankings had forecast.
The last time the two teams met, Dunellen lost to Middlesex by a decisive 24-40 margin. Since neither squad is a stranger to landslide victories this season, you'd better bet it will be hard-fought showdown.
