There was more buzz for the Bergen Catholic-Don Bosco game than in recent years; at least for me, personally. It is easily one of the best rivalries, very close to being the best. The top rivalry is Phillipsburg-Easton and unless …

Salem was the only top-ranked team to win this past weekend, keeping their top position. They face a tough Woodstown team this weekend for a must-see game in South Jersey. Caldwell also had a good win over next-door rival West …

Public Groups 3-4-5 

I usually don’t punish a public school team for losing to any of the established Catholic schools. This week, it looks as if I rewarded one, as Irvington moves to the top spot after losing to Seton …

The Top Four has been turned on its head after the weekend. Don Bosco came in and routed #1 Bergen Catholic and are in the driver’s seat at #1. If they continue to play that way, especially on defense, they …

First Quarter: Bosco opened the game with possession and drove down the field, scoring on …

Ridgewood beat Passaic Tech tonight in a game that featured some very good defense from both teams. One big difference was Ridgewood’s ability to make for some big pass plays to tight end Brendan Chanley. Another factor was Ridgewood …

It has been an unusual season for many of the North Jersey Catholic schools, so far. Bergen Catholic has been humming along, but the others have shown themselves to be more human. St. Peter’s Prep was demolished by St. Joe’s …

One thing about MSG broadcasting games this year is it is good to hear Jimmy Cavallo once again after a few years off….Speaking of that, it is also good to see Joe Hofmann covering Morris County football again for Morris …

I began the public school poll with the larger schools a little  earlier and here are the smaller schools. I am not 100% sure who is the top team, but I let the victors from last year have some spoils. …

I am not a fan of the earlier start to the season. I prefer the season starting the weekend after Labor Day and the earlier start cuts into the summer. I know why they are doing this: to accommodate statewide …
