The Freehold Boro Colonials will head out to challenge the Barnegat Bengals at 6:30 p.m. on Friday. Freehold Boro will be strutting in after a victory while Barnegat will be coming in after a defeat.
While Colonials fans will have to keep waiting for their team to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Friday's season opener. They simply couldn't be stopped on Friday as they easily beat New Brunswick 28-0 on the road. The win was a breath of fresh air for the Colonials as it put an end to their five-game losing streak dating back to last season.
Meanwhile, Barnegat was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap on Thursday as they fell 12-7 to Toms River East.
Freehold Boro didn't have too much breathing room in their game against Barnegat in their previous meeting back in September of 2023, but they still walked away with a 26-20 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for Freehold Boro since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
