Neshaminy's offense came alive in the 2nd session as Jones engineered two nice drives which resulted in scores with the first ending on a 20 yard aerial to Denzel Hughes and then the next featuring a nine yard TD shot from Jones to Hughes (once again) with just 30 seconds on the clock. Dylan McDonald's point after, following the second score, then gave the Moleskinners the lead, 17-16 (he's hit both PATs and also a 36 yard field goal in the first). The Mounties came out throwing after the kickoff and return with the 'Skins "prevent" squad killing that effort when Jacob Gordon picked one off.
Summing it up so far I'd say the edge is to Neshaminy (which "should" have a slightly bigger lead if that fumble by Dogba "going in" doesn't occur). Their defense has played tough only giving up the one drive (the other Montrclair score was the Pick Six). Interestingly is that Jones has run a fair bit (which is nice to see he can do as the QB ought to be legging it a bit out of that newly installed "Pistol" offense). Montclair has played the run pretty well as Dogba hasn't opened it up too much and you wonder if they're focus on the H-Back has allowed Jones room to ramble.
Calls I'm getting from those in attendance are saying Neshaminy's line is beginning to exert itself. Montclair has good skill players but they did lose a lot from last year so it seems they're working in a new group that may be settling in. They've got a good back in a fellow by the name of Webb. Not that big but has moves. They haven't been showing so much in the air (let's see how they adjust). Notable is that Montclair has a ton of players and "subs" a lot (Neshaminy has multiple two way guys).
The Neshaminy fans also turned out in force as they made the long trip (Montclair is just about ten miles west/northwest of NYC). Also hearing it's a beautiful field and a nice day up there.
