Colts Neck 36, No. 9 Freehold 35

The Cougars (2-0) rallied from a 21-0 first-quarter deficit and took the lead for good on a 1-yard touchdown run by senior Joe Barsky followed by a 2-point conversion run by Barsky with 5:13 to play, clipping Freehold for a tremendous victory.

Freehold scored on its first three plays of the game as Yahsin Calhoun took a short pass and went 85 yards for a touchdown, Kamore Gill did the same and for a 65-yard catch-and-run touchdown and Sha'Kim Shuler ripped off a 91-yard touchdown run to stake the Colonials to a quick 21-0 lead.

Colts Neck began its comeback with an up-tempo drive that ended with Tommy Fallon tossing a 34-yard touchdown pass to John Runfolo. Later in the second quarter, Colts Neck drove 85 yards in 15 plays and cut Freehold's lead to 21-13 on a 5-yard touchdown run by Barsky.

Matt Scully intercepted Shuler on the first play of the third quarter to give Colts Neck the ball at the Freehold 33-yard line. Fallon connected with Runfolo again, this time for a 20-yard touchdown on third-and-8, and then hit Scully for the 2-point conversion to tie the score at 21. But on the next offensive play, Gill broke free for a 53-yard touchdown run to give Freehold a 28-21 lead.

Colts Neck answered with a nine-play, 64-yard drive that culminated with a 4-yard touchdown run by Barsky to knot the score at 28. Freehold answered on the next series as Shuler hit Jason Lee for a 35-yard gain before taking a quarterback keeper and scoring on a 35-yard touchdown run to give the Colonials a 35-28 lead with 11:31 left.

Colts Neck's next drive was halted at the Freehold 37-yard line, but two plays later Scully came up with his second interception of the game to set up the winning touchdown drive. A 29-yard run by Barsky moved the ball to the 5-yard line and on third-and-goal he punched it in from the 1-yard line to make it 35-34. Freehold was called for a too-man-men-on-the-field penalty on the extra point, which Colts Neck missed, so the Cougars decided to go for the 2-point conversion since the ball was now at the 1-yard line. Barsky powered in for the conversion to give Colts Neck a 36-35 lead.

Barsky ran for 202 yards and three touchdowns on 39 carries while Fallon completed 11 of 19 passes for 154 yards and two touchdowns and ran for 80 yards on 12 carries
