Friday's Football Postponement Story
By STAFF REPORT
Rain has resulted in eight football games scheduled for either Friday night or Saturday to be postponed until Sunday, as of Friday afternoon.
Among those games postponed were the two biggest games of the weekend: The Holmdel at Point Boro game, which will likely decide the Shore Conference National Division championship, will be Sunday at 4 p.m. and the Wall at Red Bank Catholic Shore Conference Liberty Division game, will be Sunday at 7 p.m.
If Holmdel wins, it will win its first outright divisional championship since 1986 and its first divisional title since it shared the Class C South title with Monmouth Regional and Freehold in 1999. If Point Boro wins, it will clinch at least a share of its third divisional title in four years.
If Wall wins that game, it will clinch the overall Liberty Division championship. If Red Bank Catholic wins, it will likely create a three-way tie for the overall Liberty Division championship amongst itself, Wall and Long Branch and win the Non-Public Liberty Division title while Wall and Long Branch will likely share the public school Liberty Division title.
Other games postponed from Friday night with makeup times are: Rumson-Fair Haven at Point Beach, Sunday at noon; Monmouth Regional at Jackson Liberty, Sunday at 3 p.m.; Brick Memorial at Jackson Memorial, Sunday, 6 p.m.
Rumson-Fair Haven can clinch a share of the Patriot Division title with Asbury Park and most likely Keansburg with a win Sunday. Jackson Memorial will likely clinch a berth in the NJSIAA Central Jersey Group IV playoffs, its ninth straight playoff berth, with a win.
Three games, originally scheduled for Saturday, have been postponed until Sunday. They are Shore at Keyport, 10 a.m.; Monsignor Donovan at Keansburg, 1 p.m.; St. John Vianney at Mater Dei, 2:30 p.m.
