(This is a loooooooooong entry, so I just figured I’d give you a heads up.)
Experience is supposed to be a huge factor in success on the football field, right? I don’t know if I’m so sure of that after a host of sparkling debuts on Saturday night capped one of the wildest opening weekends in recent memory.
Leading the way was Howell junior quarterback Ryan Davies, who threw for a school-record 455 yards and seven (!) touchdowns in a 48-17 win over a Toms River North team that hadn’t given up anything close to that many points in a game since losing 46-20 to Middletown South in 2006. It was the first career start for Davies, the son of Howell head coach Cory Davies, and it rewrote the record book. Where do you go from there?
