Agreed. I know @bori_blanco says TRN doesnt pull kids from other districts but every coach ive talked to down that way says TRN has kids from out of district is as well.
OT: 2023 NJ HS Football Season
- Thread starter tico brown
- Start date
Cedar Grove/ Montclair would actually be an interesting matchup as well. Not as good as the RFH/ TRN since Rumson is one of the best Group 2 schools in the state who plays a big school schedule down the shore. Hell of a record last 10 years. Plus they score the most points vs TRN last season.

I went to Franklin, so I’m used to seeing Pway. They were our TDay game when I was young.
I‘m coaching Central Youth now, and the local guys bring up the glory days all the time, lol.
Rumson plays bigger group schools plenty of times, you are way off base. I believe it will be a great game and I know the Schulte family from my days playing Pop Warner in Keansburg. The other reason as you probably are aware TDN has the most dynamic player in the state plus several D1 players along both lines, just saying.

The kid committed to PSU is either lazy or out of shape. Didnt like he had any interest in being out there vs millville
Rumson has played TRN the last couple of years. The group2-3 schools don't want to play them. The smaller/medium sized schools petitioned to have Wall, Manasquan and Rumson moved to larger enrollment divisions.
First game of the year at Rutgers.
Lost 40-27
3, G5
2, G3
1, G4
1, G2
An A and a B
Since 2011:
9-3
12-1
7-1
8-4
6-4
5-5
5-5
9-3
3-7
8-3
10-2
10-2
There’s been some pretty dam good G1 programs who will compete, if not beat the 4s and 5s year to year.
Not sure what that means. I assume that represents the group size break down of the schedule. Which is what I stated above. Tough to play against teams of similar size in conference when the conference members complain. Play golf with a bunch of old timer football coaches (one who recently coached at Rumson) and AD's. Many from shore conference. It has been tough for Rumson, Wall and Manasquan to even get scrimmages from teams unless they go up 2 sometimes 3 group sizes.

They have a good squad this year. Theyll beat madison tonight. 2 huge games for them are caldwell and mountain lakes.
Madison used to be known for tough kids in football and baseball
Goodwin played there ?
I am extremely familiar with the Toms River North team. They really don't recruit. Instead, they just had a very fortunate 2 year class which has 2 legit high D1 players, a lot of very good players a notch below D1, an absolute ton of size, good health, and (last year) having a soft regular season schedule. Now, has a kid from Manchester suddenly moved to town or a kid from East enrolled (legitimately) in the North academy program - yes - but this has been very minimal. Actually, I expected every good player at the Shore to suddenly "move" here before the season started, but that did not happen. The team should actually be even better and bigger but they lost the son of a Rutgers legacy (Jake Guarnera) who moved to Florida and is currently a Michigan commit.
I am curious to see how they do against the harder schedule this year. Last year's slate was an absolute joke. Would not be surprised to see them get picked off once or twice during the regular season.

Madison had a nice run when godwin was there but theyve always been a lax school
Micah Ford on TRN is insane. 2 long incredible TD runs and 2 long TD passes. TRN 28-14 over RFH at halftime
Don’t mean to jump ahead to next week before this Saturdays games are played out. But there’s going to be an great early season that most here wouldn’t know/care about as 3-0 Mainland, who has romped through their first three games in their shotgun wing T, will play 3-0 Atlantic City, who has been enjoying their resurgence last couple of seasons behind that WR Sahnye Degraffenreidt. Should be a good game down there.
They were stacked
Both the 98 and 99 classes were deep and talented
98 only lost 2 guys from middle school to Lata that would have contributed
The 99 loss to WWP in the regular season finale was a tough one, but they bounced back quickly and trounced them the following week
Had a scare against Hillsborough at Rutgers in the playoffs, but other than that, were utterly dominant
Todays broadcast schedule on Morris Sussex Sports:
BTW, what school is the head coach up in Sussex County who walks around everywhere barefooted?

Rumson got the game to 28-21 in the early 3rd quarter, but Ford is just too much. Incredibles talent, I know there's talk he'll play DB at the next level, but I believe he HAS to play offense somewhere. Great crowd, and yes, TRN will put these numbers up in most of this year's tougher schedule compared to last season's weaker one.
He could definitely be a very good P5 RB.
I’m still shocked that I have to argue this with others because they still say that he’s not that good of a HS QB to play college, which I’m like
.I would be one of them-----don't see him as a college QB but he would be a great RB or S IMO at the Power 5 level.

They got hanover park madison streaming right now. 21-14 HP up at half. Madisons 2 Td’s came on an int and a fumble they took back to within the 5. HP dominating. Im here
He was on an upward trajectory as a Qb, but his throwing seems to have plateaued.
Also factor in his massive line/protection and 2 really good receivers.
I’d certainly give him a shot as a P5 qb, but Micah’s ultimate position is very likely elsewhere.
And if we consider Chaminade Madonna a good football team just watch Mater Dei again this season . Quite funny to look at that roster and wonder what money can buy . Will try and catch Kahuku Hawaii vs Mater Dei today.
