In 2021, Manville had six wins at the cutoff and didn’t make the playoffs. They scheduled a good out-of-conference opponent in Keyport for Week Zero in 2022, beat them, had another solid year, and qualified for the postseason.
That’s part of the model for Spotswood, which had the same thing happen to them last year: six wins at the cutoff, but a snub by the NJSIAA’s playoff formula.
Head coach Chris Meagher dropped Bishop Eustace from the schedule, took on Bordentown, and the Chargers beat the Scotties 14-0 on the road last Friday night to open the season.
Now, if they can put together a solid year like they did last season, they just might make the playoffs this year. It would be the Chargers’ first berth since 2015.
