Kittatinny Regional will take on Newton in the third round of the playoffs at 7:00 PM on Friday. Both teams have allowed few points on average (Newton 9.36, Kittatinny Regional 12.64), so any points scored will be well earned.
Newton might be getting used to good results now that the team has four wins in a row. They took their contest against High Point last Friday by a conclusive 27-3 score. Senior Nick Brigante was the offensive standout of the match for Newton, as he rushed for 156 yards and 2 touchdowns on 20 carries. Brigante has now scored at least one touchdown in the past seven games.
Meanwhile, Kittatinny Regional can now show off seven landslide victories after their most recent match. They made easy work of Westwood and carried off a 41-20 victory. The team accrued the bulk of their points in the first half (38) and coasted on those for the win.
Their wins bumped Kittatinny Regional to 9-2 and Newton to 10-1. Since neither squad is a stranger to landslide victories this season, you'd better bet it will be hard-fought showdown.
