Friday Scoreboard

Class A Central

Raritan 31, Monmouth 16

The Rockets (1-4, 1-2) ended a 14-game losing streak by exploding for 31 points behind a career-high three touchdown passes by junior quarterback Riley Sullivan after having scored 17 all season to down the Falcons (2-2, 1-1).

Sullivan threw two touchdowns to wideout Dylan Dewysockie, and the defense did not allow a touchdown, as both of the Falcons' scores came on kickoff returns. One of Sullivan's scoring throws was a school-record 99 1/2 yard touchdown to Dewysockie, who also had an eight-yard touchdown catch. Senior wideout James Wines added a touchdown catch, and senior running back Jared Collins rushed for a score in the win.

No. 6 Ocean 33, Red Bank 6

Sophomore tailback Tyler Thompson went over 100 yards rushing and had a pair of touchdowns, junior quarterback Royal Moore added 51 yards rushing and two scores, and senior Cole Mehr had 59 yards rushing and a touchdown as the Spartans (5-0, 3-0) remained unbeaten by downing the Bucs (0-4, 0-2).

This also marked the fourth straight game that Ocean has allowed a touchdown or less.

Class B Central

Pt. Beach 10, Asbury Park 7

Nondivisional

TR East 47, Howell 41 (OT)
