By most measures, the 2023 Spotswood football team had a wonderful season.
With an 8-2 record, the Chargers won the Freedom Gold Division and made the playoffs – albeit narrowly, although that may have been more of a function of their schedule and the NJSIAA playoff formula – but there’s still room for improvement.
They’ve done that over the past two seasons, going from 1-8 in head coach Chris Meagher’s debut season, but then went 7-3 in 2022 – missing the playoffs somehow – and 8-2 a year ago.
They may be untested at quarterback, but for a small school they will have a big kid there in Se’mir Tolbert-Brimage. He”s a transfer from North Brunswick, where he mainly played at defensive end.
He’s a hulk at 6’4″ 220 pounds, and enjoys contact, so you can expect him to embrace running the ball as much as throwing it, or hitting quarterbacks on the opposing team. And it’s probably a good thing he plays both, and doesn’t have to hit his own QB in practice.
