Jayon Farrar

Jayon Farrar scored three touchdowns and picked off a pass to lead an efficient Donovan Catholic past Red Bank Catholic to put the Griffins in the de facto Shore Conference title game.

A monster effort on the ground by senior running back Jahdir Loftland and the Donovan Catholic offensive line enabled the Griffins to rally past Southern for a signature win.

Donovan Catholic returns multiple three- and four-year starters and adds three impact transfers as the program attempts to continue its climb up the Shore Conference's hierarchy.

A touchdown pass from Jake Kazanowsky to Dominick Jacob with 13 seconds left capped an instant classic and gave Toms River North a 43-39 win over Long Branch to clinch the American Division title.
