Battle of the Undefeated: Panthers Vs. Blue Devils

For the first time, Bridgewater-Raritan Varsity Football team will compete for the 2015 New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association North 2, Group 5 Championship since the records began being kept by the NJSIAA in 1974.

The Panthers with an undefeated record of 11-0 will take on Westfield’s Blue Devils (10-0) on Thursday, Dec. 3 at 8 p.m. in MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford.

“It’s been over four decades since Coach Greiner’s teams went unbeaten in over three consecutive seasons as a high school football dynasty that was Bridgewater East,” according to BRHS’ football facebook page. “The new Bridgewater-Raritan High School hasn’t seen a perfect season in this sport since the merger between east and west.”

Bridgewater-Raritan defeated Ridge High School’s Red Devils in a close game on Nov. 20 at home with a score of 30 to 29.

There will be a fan bus offered for Bridgewater-Raritan High School students only. Tickets will be sold today, Nov.30 and Tuesday, Dec. 1 outside the Athletic Office during lunch periods.

The cost is $13 and will include transportation and ticket to the game. Students must have the exact amount to purchase the ticket.

Students will be permitted to buy a ticket for themselves only and must provide a student ID when purchasing the ticket. If students ride the bus to the game, they must ride the bus home.

There will be no backpacks, bags, purses, cinch sacks, drinks, food and containers of any kind allowed on the bus.
