The Vineland Fighting Clan will be playing at home against the Eastern Vikings at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. Neither Vineland nor Eastern posted many points in their last games could muster much offensive firepower in their last games.
Vineland owes their defense a big pat on the back after their performance on Friday. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 3-0 victory over Pennsauken. The win made it back-to-back wins for Vineland.
Meanwhile, Eastern took a serious blow against Timber Creek Regional on Friday, falling 41-6. While losing is never fun, Eastern can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' New Jersey football rankings (they are ranked 152nd, while Timber Creek Regional is ranked 24th).
Vineland's victory lifted them to 3-5 while Eastern's defeat dropped them down to 2-7.
Vineland won a matchup that couldn't have been any closer in their previous meeting back in October of 2022, slipping by Eastern 20-19. Does Vineland have another victory up their sleeve, or will Eastern turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
