Timber Creek Football Team Prepares For 2018 Season
The Chargers will have to replace a record-setting quarterback, but some experienced players should help, according to the Courier Post.

GLOUCESTER TOWNSHIP, NJ — It’s a new season for the Timber Creek Regional High School football team, and it has to find a way to replace record-setting quarterback Devin Leary.
Jayvin Little and Tarheeb Still are the only two players the Chargers have entering this season who gained more than 100 yards from scrimmage last year, according to the Courier Post. “Those guys were under the radar in terms of ability (because of Leary),” Timber Creek coach Rob Hinson told the newspaper.
He said Little, who 768 yards receiving and seven touchdowns last season, and Still, who had 478 yards and three touchdowns, have the ability to score every time they touch the ball. They also have the leadership skills a team that is breaking in a new quarterback needs.
